I.T. (2016)

If you don't like this, we can't be friends.

This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.

Story: It's very simple but honestly that is fine.

what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.

This is an electronic stalker film that degrades into the physical. Mike Regan (Pierce Bronson) has created an app so individuals can easily charter private jets, of fly on its availability. Ed Porter (James Frecheville) is the I.T. temp who saves Mike's electronic presentation. Ed helps Mike with his car and home computers and then becomes infatuated with Mike's 17 year old daughter (Stefanie Scott) which becomes a bit creepy leading to the formula script.For Pierce Bronson, this is a step down from "Urge" which was a step down from his other work. I hope the trend ends for Pierce, however it is nice to have someone of his caliber in a "B" home "invasion" genre. The DVD cover seems to promise some fancy high tech film when it is more closer to a David Hess film. Not the worst in class.Guide: F-word. No sex or nudity.

I loved this film. In the sense that the acting was OK, the writing was good (Ish) and the general plot was entertaining.Why 3/10? Because of the lack of any police use. Nobody called the police when he kept turning up to family events. The police didn't catch him doing any of the hacking stuff.He doesn't call in IT people to fix his house or phone.Just the lack of common sense from the protagonist annoyed me despite the rest of the film being half decent.

Pierce Brosnan stars in "I.T." from 2016. It's hard to express just how pathetic this movie is. Pierce Brosnan decided not to have a facelift, and I admire him for it. But he looks tired, and his days of doing roles where he gets into physical fights should be over.Brosnan plays Mike Regan, a wealthy man who runs a company. After a computer expert named Ed (Jason Frecheville) gets them out of technical trouble, Regan hires him.However, when Ed starts sniffing around Regan's daughter, he's fired. His revenge is to turn the house against its occupants. So sloppy. The parents don't like him because a) he's creepy and b) he's older than their daughter. And there's Anna Friel as Regan's wife, 20 years younger than Brosnan.When Ed shows up at a family gathering, Regan is so rude to him it's ridiculous. Offensive scene. Later on, the two have an altercation and Regan is arrested. Right, the cops always do that, arrest an incredibly wealthy man on the word of some kid - and then gives Ed his gun back in case he wants to kill someone later. When Regan talks on the phone, Ed doesn't hear the call. It seems that everything in the house is monitored - but not the phone. The acting was okay, with Brosnan really laying on the Irish brogue. Standouts for me were Frecheville and the guy who works on the house to help Regan out of his predicament.Bad ending too.

Super intense entertaining thriller!Top business boss is on the verge of great success, but misplaced trust in a temp computer expert threatens to bring down the bosses company and family.This movie is worthy of a high vote as:1.If done well, as here, there is something compellingly view able about a rich and happy man being at risk of destruction; and,2.The film is educational as it illustrates the danger of misuse of technology especially when security is lax and put into the hands of a lunatic.The outstanding performance is from James Frecheville playing the part of a IT expert who also happens to be a psycho.Needs a Part II!8/10.
