I made my way through the crowded isles at the cinema, my ten-year-old brother at my side, and made myself as tall as I could in order to see over people’s heads in hopes of finding a few empty seats. I had made it a point to get there at least thirty minutes before the movie started and even then the theatre was packed.

In 2026, when cybercrime is no longer a distant movie threat, Blackhat has a more current subject than the movie Jack saw in 2015, even if the storytelling still trips it up.
