<div class="IPBDescription">this movie pwns</div>I saw The Recruit (Al Pachino, some other unimportant people) on Saturday night. It was a lot better than I thought it'd be, a lot better than the trailers and commercials showed it as. Good movie, I recommend you go see it.
One thing that really impressed me was that while computers don't play a really big role there are a few scenes where code was shown on the screen. But rather than typical movie fashion of having random gibberish, they actually had 100% valid C++ code displayed on the screen! Later they had a real-ish looking hex dump too. And the guy even used the Opera browser on his computer. :P
The only thing I didn't like about the movie was that during the opening credits the entire theatre had an epileptic seisure due to flashing credit screens...
