""David Lightman est un hacker capable de déjouer les systèmes de sécurité informatique les plus sophistiqués, de déchiffrer les codes secrets les plus complexes et de réussir les jeux vidéos les plus difficiles. Mais lorsqu'il fait intrusion dans le système informatique du département de la défense, les conséquences de ses actes prennent des proportions beaucoup plus globales... comme la troisième guerre mondiale."
"David (Broderick) is a computer-whiz teenager who unwittingly taps into the Pentagon's early-warning system. He gleefully pretends to be the Russians and decides to nuke Las Vegas, precipitating a full-scale countdown to Armageddon, and nearly staring WW3. The plot becomes more contrived as it goes along and slides into simplistic pro-humanitarian cliches. Obvious why it was so popular with kids as most of the adults in the film are boobs."
