Fun. The computer stuff is just badly done. Interesting idea, done adiquitly. Sandra makes it.

Leonard Maltin/Plot synopsis: |
The techno-thriller as Sandra Bullock vehicle: She plays a mousy, vulnerable computer whiz. When bad guys need a disc she possesses, they stop at nothing--including deleting, then manipulating her identity on official computer records. Not-bad story idea is handled in plodding fashion; anyone who's ever seen a real thriller will be ahead of this story at every turn. Later a TV series.

On the good side, it's an intriguing idea and Sandra Bullock does act well for the film. The bad news is that it's handled rather heavy-handedly and it's ultimately not believable. Could've been great, but I seriously think the makers of the film didn't put enough effort into it.
