It’s not a story driven movie, it’s a movie about a stylized subculture and youth. Compare it to Dazed & Confused instead of Chinatown.
The point is to make you want to hang out with those people on those days and it does that tremendously well.
If you disagree your a flake.
See, I can push back on that! Dazed & Confused barely has a plot. It knows what it's about. Hackers has one of those shake-and-bake 80s plots; it's like a Save The Cat movie. I get that people like the subculture stuff in it, but the movie was trying for something else and faceplanted.
Honestly I think Lawnmower Man might have had more cultural impact.
Did Lawnmower Man document Bunks early career at the fbi which he had to resign in scandal before joining the Baltimore police?
I didn’t think so.
