About halfway through, they suit-up to enter the reactor. They put on their HazMat gear but they don't put on the proper boots or tape up their pant legs (to their boots). They also don't tape up the zippers of the suits. These things are always done in HazMat situations. See more »

look at the fake perfect reviews
22 January 2015 | by (United States) – See all my reviews

This is a real stinker for the following reasons:

1. This "elite" hacker, Hemsworth, is an idiot. He messages the so-called terrorist with "I'm coming to get you" LOL! c'mon. No hacker does that.

2. There's some forced love between Hemsworth and some Asian chick because.....no reason at all. They may as well be strangers at a park.

3. trying to fit too many irrelevant things together makes the film lose focus

4. too much violent action for a "computer hacker" plot This

is straight-to-trash can quality.
