#133 The Net (1995) Bad Movies Rule

BMR delves into the '90s cyber-thriller abyss as we unravel the tangled web of "The Net" (1995). Directed by Irwin Winkler, this film shows us floppy disks that could destroy the world and the glorious 90s version of the internet.

Join us as we hack our way through the implausible scenario of Sandra Bullock's loner shut-in who's unable to get a date. In this episode, we are so split we spend half the time arguing about the complexity of ordering pizza online. "The Net" is a nostalgic trip back to the days when we feared the World Wide Web more than appreciated it.

Does "The Net" transcend its '90s nostalgia and remain a taut tech thriller, or is it just a pixelated relic in the annals of cyber cinema? Join us as we surf the net with laughter, delivering our verdict on whether "The Net" is a tech-thriller masterpiece or a dial-up era dud.
