With a suspenseful and gripping story that is further elevated by the always terrific Sandra Bullock. The Net is a thrilling masterpiece that makes great use of its intriguing concept.

She stars as Angela Bennett a young woman whose a programmer and becomes entangled in a sinister computer conspiracy in which they are manipulating people's information to control the outcomes. The plot is still relevant and although the tech doesn't hold up well, the drama and thrills do. Sexy Jeremy Northam (Emma) and funnyman Dennis Miller (Bordello of Blood) also star. Director Irwin Winkler (Life as a House) executes the proceedings with an an edge of your seat, sweaty palm inducing intensity. Although it's not wholly original it's damn entertaining.

It was okay but it was repetitive in a way. I would get frustrated because as soon as you thought it couldnt get any worse, it would. I did like how fast paced the movie was

The Net is a typical thriller of the 90s. The name of the film and the plot are deceptive, one of the most delusional and unrealistic films about both hackers and IT.

The name of the film and the plot are deceptive, one of the most delusional and unrealistic films about both hackers and IT. The Net is one of the most romanticised tester stories in a film matographer. At the same time, The Net itself is clearly not the most exciting thriller, there is almost no suspense, the dynamics of the film is very sagging and the action of what is happening is delayed. The plot itself rests on some fictional rules that do not reflect reality. In the 90s, everything is already so computerized that nothing is stored on paper. And the whole plot is saturated with such artificial restrictions. Because of this, the thriller turns into a sitcom of absurdity. And of course I was killed in the weak acting of Sandra Bullock, she plays a lot better in secondary roles.… Expand

I think many movies have gone out of this one. It's about taking ones identity and turn them into nobody, new person. I liked this idea, but somehow the movie didn't seemed interesting to me.

I liked this idea, but somehow the movie didn't seemed interesting to me. But the opposite - slow, predictable, not deep and real enough. I guess Sandra Bullock did her job, but the whole making of the movie, like directing and script, action and story were weak. 'The Net' is fine movie, just not something special.… Expand
