Summary: Is this about Microsoft?????
Review: :), Tim Robbins reminds me of Bill Gates for some reason. This is a great movie. Not only is the technology that is integrated cool, but the movie has a lot of twists and turns. You think you've got it, but then nope...you don't. Rachel Leigh Cook is quite dreamy and easy on the eyes....hopefully her career will keep getting better. 5 stars....good gift for techies.

Summary: Believeable geek movie
Review: This movie presents a somewhat believeable computer geek story, which will be enjoyed by the general public but even more so by those in the computer circle.The movie opens with some character development with the "good guys" discussing the benefits of open source programming, which is a good hook to the hacker community but a concept lost on the general population. Unfortunately this concept is one of the focal points of the movie. All in all the plot is good, not too predictable. Various tech elements that are thrown are are great. There are some subtle things that only techies will notice but they really enhance the quality of the movie. One of my favorites is a quick glimpse of a programmer wearing a red hat... obviously a reference to Bob Young.

Summary: "it's a fine line between stupid and clever" - spinal tap
Review: I don't know whether this movie is a pathetic and foolish attempt to attack Bill Gates, or a brilliant mockery of those who attack him. Most likely the former. Either way, it's fun to see Tim Robbins as a totally evil parody of the software mogul. Good for many laughs, especially if you're in this industry. For those who aren't, this movie is just another typical high-tech suspense movie, with very little substance or style. Good for a rainy night rental when the movie you really wanted to see is sold out.

Summary: Awesome movie!
Review: After Milo finds out the company he is working for, N.U.R.V, is actually responsible for the death of his best freind, he takes matters into his own hands. When I first rented Antitrust I was ready for a so-so movie, but boy was I wrong. Antitrust has an great cast with awesome acting from Ryan Phillippe and Tim Robbins. This movie is susepensful, fun, exciting, and yet it still seems to have a great sense of realism. This would make an awesome movie to own I am defenitley buying it!!!!!

Summary: Open Source VS Commercial Software
Review: Ryan Phillippe plays Milo Hoffman, a young but brilliant computer programmer, drawn to N.U.R.V. (the worlds largest computer software company) by C.E.O. Gary Winston (Tim Robbins). N.U.R.V. is developing a global communications system called SYNAPSE and they need young Milo to help them reach their dead-line.
Milo, his believes still in favor of the Open Source community, leaves his friend and partner Teddy Chin (Yee Jee Tso) for N.U.R.V.(them offering Milo a job he can't refuse, a house and a car).
But when several programmers end up dead and the clues lead to N.U.R.V., Milo starts an investigation, but soon finds out it's very difficult to decide who he can trust to discover the truth.
This is 1 of very few computer related movies I know of that actually take enough interest in the computer business and show the viewers some actual computer code for starters.
The real fun part of this movie is the finger-pointing towards Microsoft (the N.U.R.V. campus looks alot like the one MS has). Also letting the world know that human knowledge belongs to the world is a nicely used feature!
The differences shown between the Open Source community and the multi-million dollar software companies like N.U.R.V. ,all of these things do exist in the real world.
The DVD includes deleted scenes, an alternate ending, a theatrical trailer and a documentary.
The DVD is presented in Widescreen format (2.35:1) and has a DD 5.1 soundmix.

Summary: Deleted
Review: An average movie with the same old plot of the big evil corporate thing... seems the only ones who complain about microsoft and such are the ones that were not good enough to work there in the first place, but i don't see the poeple who do all of the complaining about evil corporations offering thier paychecks to the poor people who got kicked to the curb, nope instead they buy more pc's and such made by big evil companies and then tell each other some bleading heart story on how this will benifit those who got trampled on to make themselves feel better about the bs they spew from thier mouths every day. enough though the movie is entertaining but predictable.

Summary: One wishful change for an alternate ending.
Review: Easy watching and going by the other reviews most of what could be said has been said. Just one wishful change for an alternate ending. Take the same movie, the same acting and most of the same story then, in the last five minutes, have the SYNAPSE broadcast working successfully, global televising of the greatest open source interface for all to use - the ultimate marketing event. The whole plot was built to get the best from the programming unit, this is the true genius Gary Winston (Tim Robbins) CEO and ultimate motivator. Programming within his company not only produces the best results but also gives his staff a thrilling ride along the way (a la 'The Game'). In the end Gary Winston is the good guy providing the best software, Milo Hoffman is the whiz-kid caught in the game to provide solutions in the shortest possible time - I do my best work under pressure. The end should have included his previously 'murdered' friend, working for N.U.R.V. all along, passing on the snippets of code to make SYNAPSE happen.

Summary: Antitrust and Open Source
Review: Antitrust is one of my most favorite movies ever. I would recommend it to everyone, whether they're computer geeks or not. Before I saw this movie, I knew nothing about Open Source. It's actually really cool, and the Open Source Development Network is devoted to all that kind of stuff. With a great plot and great characters, I gave this movie 5 stars. I now own it on DVD, which doesn't have a lot of special features, but does have 6 or 7 deleted scenes, which I always like to watch. Buy this movie! I'm sure you'll love it!
