Firewall/防火墙

This movie is supposed to be a hacker-themed one, yet, it is understandable that hacking is too technological to be demonstrated on the screen, so it becomes a quasi-action movie. It is kind of a standard work of a good-vs-evil one: the first half, the bad guys conquer; and the last half, the good man triumphs.

Well, but as a tech fan(not a geek yet), I think the gangs are so humiliating; they do not deserve the name of "high-tech thief" because they use physical violence and to threaten women and kids, which means they are incompetent in technology. So they are just some gangs knowing some IT tech's, not real hackers.

按说本片应该是黑客题材,不过黑客技术确实很难在荧幕上展现,所以可以理解它成了一部准动作片。本片是标准的正邪斗争的作品:上半部,坏人当道;下半部,好人大获全胜。

不过作为一个科技粉丝(还不够geek),个人觉得这帮匪徒实在是很猥琐,他们不配“高科技窃贼”这种黑客称号,因为他们用的是肢体暴力,威胁女士和儿童,这意味着他们其实在技术上很无能。所以他们实际上也就是若干懂点IT皮毛的黑帮,算不上真正的黑客。
