  • Matthew Lillard reflects on his character in Hackers in this new interview. Grab Hackers on Blu-ray at www.shoutfactory.com/film/fil...
    "This is our world now… the world of the electron and the switch, the beauty of the baud." - The Mentor, The Hacker's Manifesto
    While practicing the tricks of the trade, a neophyte "hacker" accomplishes the nearly impossible: he hacks the highly secured computer at the Ellingson Mineral Corporation. But in doing so, he unknowingly taps into a high-tech embezzling scheme masked by a computer virus with the potential to destroy the world's ecosystem! And when the young hacker and his pals are targeted for the crime, the group must launch a massive cyberspace attack - one that will hopefully clear their names and prevent ecological disaster.
    By launching the careers of Jonny Lee Miller (Elementary) and Academy Award®-winner Angelina Jolie (1999 Supporting Actress, Girl, Interrupted), Hackers became an underground hit instantly, inspiring music and fashion for the brand-new Internet culture, and has been even hailed as prophetic in its use of computers and hacking.

      The Jonny Lee Miller Paradox: Jonny Lee Miller and Ewan McGregor are two actors with remarkably similar attributes, but if there were two identical films with one of them as the lead in each, which one would you buy a ticket for?
      Not that Jonny Lee Miller is worse or anything, but McGregor has an x-factor that you can’t manufacture.
      Chris Pratt is another. He has been lead in big films, but I don’t think many people watch a film specifically because it is a Chris Pratt film.
      Guardians of the Galaxy works because he anchors a group of far weirder and more interesting characters. Hackers works identically. A bunch of much wilder characters are in a story that centres around Miller. The presence he has enables this, rather than him lacking as others chew scenery.
