Mann directed this self-produced embarrassment that no intelligent human being can watch for more than 10 minutes because he couldn't afford a director. He produced it himself because no one else would give him a job. Nor could he afford any decent actors or a decent script. He still managed to spend $70 million on this trash that only made a tenth of that at the box office.
I mean casting a dumb jock as a hacker and filling up the rest of the cast with Asian extras, what was he thinking? What kind of hacker needs so many gunfights to do his job? Making money with a movie about something as geeky as hacking is almost impossible. Geeks are the guys you give wedgies to, not watch movies about. Passing off a jock as a geek? Well the Wachowskis did it with Matrix but Michael Mann, you are too old to succeed at such sideways thinking.
Michael Mann, you are way past your use-by date. You should have taken your winnings after Collateral and retired.
