In this movie the Internet plays a big role, yet the idiots use FedEx and floppies to share information. What the hell?

Overall I'll give this flick 1/10.

That was for avoid Viruses or Hackers on the internet. For safe protect their important informations, they used offline share way floppies(Now maybe USB Flash?) and FedEx.

The movie point,

The Computer technologies is not a perfact,
And the human's life(offline) is more better than using the computer & Internet life(online).

I hate this movie's distorted wrong expressions.
But I 86% agree on movie's massage.

I'm sorry for my bad english.

LMAO that's not a reason to make a movie suck lol it's called reality and how some people did things back then.

The film is bad but that isn't really one of its many bad points.

Why risk receiving a virus over the internet especially to your work computer.
I'm sure his boss knew he collected virus and made sure that they never touched any of his business computers so on a floppy.

Also back then we had hundreds of floppies. Everything was on them and once cd burners were cheap enough we had hundreds of cds and we stored everything on them too
