Notorious hacker Drew Reynolds is captured by the CIA and given a proposition - work for them or spend the rest of his life in prison. Agreeing on the condition that he can form his own team, he puts together a group of "throwaways" - the people deemed expendable and seemingly the worst in the organization.
Acting
James Caan clearly here for the paycheck, legendary.
Practical Effects
Charming low-budget stunts that feel homemade.
Writing
Drew's hacker monologues are deliciously cringe.
