Hacker: Trust No One

Hacker, aka Hacker: Trust No One (2021) doesn't acquire much hacking at all. Here, we focus on desperate loner Danny Miles as he searches for his partner online. However once he meets Alyssa, things start to take a turn for the worst as she's held captive online and it becomes more of a ransom story. This must have been made during the covid outbreak so things are very limited here in this dramatic thriller. There's too much talking to the camera and very little decent sound quality. The technical aspects are shockingly appalling. Sam Mason-Bell doesnt do himself much justice as it just looks lazy and uninspiring.

About a guy who tries to find love online using an online dating app. But things take a terrible turn and Danny has choices to make.

It's not your box office style Film (If you expect this you will be disappointed) But I liked it as after the first 15 minutes your left wondering "what will happen next?". I straight away got friends to watch it too. They agree... although not a high budget film it was very entertaining.

How did technology try to connect us then humans became completely disconnected. I miss the pocket full of quarters and the payphone days. I'm glad I grew up in the 80s and 90s I feel blessed to have experienced that kinda life. I'm actually happy I'm 53 with being able to see this drastic change to humans before I die.

Don't get me wrong, this movie was absolutely atrocious. From the acting, plot, dialogue, to even phone-filmed vertical footage.... this was a painful secondhand embarrassment-filled experience. Would never, ever recommend, nor would I have viewed it myself if it wasn't for my boyfriend, who found it on the explore page of a movie-pirating site, and suggested we view it for laughs. And laugh, we did. Endlessly. My stomach still hurts as i reminisce of certain moments, and I am chuckling as I write this review. Of course, it's comedic elements are unintentional by the producers, as its intended "thriller" aspects failed oh so horrendously, that ironic comedy was almost inevitable. Many bad movies exist, but so rare are the ones so bad, they outdo even some high-budget comedies.

First 15 minutes were boring. You meet the back story of the protagonist, which makes internet dating even more laughable. Think of is it as the Blair Witch project of hacking. The plot was thin as paper and does not keep your attention for more than 10 minutes at a time.
