Critic score: 31/100 - User score: 8.7/10 - This movie was somewhat ahead of its time. Now this whole movie is just one episode of 'Silicon Valley.' Ryan Phillipe made the most money he had ever earned off of one movie with this one at one million dollars. Please. I don't even audition for less than one million, you know what I'm saying? When you love the actor, you love the movie. You don't care how by-the-numbers it is. With Ryan Phillipe and Rachael Leigh Cook in the cast, this movie could have been about anything.
What critics said: "A big techno-dud." Tech movies are hard because you can either play all the tech down so that normal people can understand it, or you use real technology. The first choice leaves the whole movie feeling fake. The second choice is super boring. You can't win.
