I hated it. IIRC, there is this part where the main character is trying to assemble a virus, shouting "compile, compile, please compile... YES!".

I wasn't convinced about this hacker having problems to compile a program...

OR

There is another possible explanation but I have to check dates since I think the movie was released way before the first version of Rust!!!

Vulnerability discovery and programming are different skill sets. I've seen terrible code written by talented security researchers.
