You should pass on this movie. The premise and plot are semi interesting, but there are too many cringe-worthy moments that detract from the movie overall. The set-design, or lack thereof, made me feel like I was watching a student film at times (wait, was this a student film? If so, it is actually great!). The cinematography was weak, and uninteresting. The characters were simply caricatures of Hollywood stereotypes that lacked any kind of depth. For a 95 minute movie there are a lot of "twists" but very little character or plot development. The story arch is also hijacked from poorly made Hollywood movies, for that cookie cutter "it is all explained at the end" (OMG MIND BLOWN, no.). For a movie about hacking, the creators obviously lacked any real knowledge about the subject. The organization was conveniently named dark web, like darknet, but was oddly accessed through the clearnet (regular internet). This isn't very difficult to explain to people, so I cannot understand why it seems like they didn't even do a preliminary google search on the subject before writing a movie. All of this added in to some very cringe-worthy moments caused me to roll me eyes more times than I can count. C'mon Canada, we can do better than this.
