Amazon.com:
Cute but silly, this 1983 cautionary fantasy stars Matthew Broderick as a teenage computer genius who hacks into the Pentagon's defense system and sets World War III into motion. All the fun is in the film's set-up, as Broderick befriends Ally Sheedy and starts the international crisis by pretending while online to be the Soviet Union. After that, it's not hard to predict what's going to happen: government agents swoop in, but the story ends up in the "hands" of machines talking to one another. Thus we're stuck with flashing lights, etc. John Badham (Saturday Night Fever) directs in strict potboiler mode. Kids still like this movie, though. The DVD release has a widescreen presentation, theatrical trailer, Dolby sound, director commentary, optional English, French and Spanish subtitles. --Tom Keogh



Customer Reviews
Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Excellent!
This movie is a classic and a must have for any 80's movie buff. Matthew Broderick is brillant and the special features on the DVD are wonderful. Lots of cast interviews and behind the scenes extras.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - War Games Review
Great movie, we love it. And since we have it on VHS and our VHS player broke we wanted to find it on DVD and when I found it at Amazon.com I had to get it.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Still a great movie
CD arrived as promised. This movie takes you back, with all the 'high tech' references, but it still holds together after 25 years.



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - one of the first computer hacker movies
As unlikely as it seems a young high school computer hacker
logs into a government super computer that controls
ICBM launching across the United Stated.
The resulting trouble almost causes WWIII with Russia
when the AI in control of the super computer wants to play games.
Tron (20th Anniversary Collector's Edition)
, Sneakers (Collector's Edition) and Hackers are some of the movies Hollywood has made to exploit this gold mine of the personal computer.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - WarGames
Order was received within a few days of ordering. The DVD was in excellent condition and plays very good. I would definitely order from this person again. Thank you
