ngl the movie the net in the 90s was actually pretty believable when it came to hacking
And honorable mention to the non-existing Matrix sequel that had an actual SSH vulnerability on screen.
I think Trinity was using nmap to port scan or ping sweep the subnet, also
The one with Sandra Bullock? Concept-wise it was quite realistic. But the hacking itself, man that was some unbelievable stuff. I don't think they got any fact or term right. Almost as if the OG Clippy helped: "It looks like you want to make a hacker-related movie..."
