Review – WarGames

I absolutely loved this film when it first came out. Of course, back then I was a high school computer geek just like the protagonist. And of course the whole toe-to-toe-with-the-Russkies seemed a lot more relevant then than it does now. I also expect most of today’s youth will sneer at the computers; what required a really bright kid with a lot of money would now probably be within the grasp of even mediocre students using machines available in most schools and libraries. Nonetheless, it remains an amusing little drama, however primitive the technology may seem today. Mildly amusing
