Hacking.

It's not five seconds of tapping - "I'm in!"
It's five seconds of tapping, and realizing that the code you spent an hour testing yesterday doesn't run today.

Haha I think movie hacking is hilarious. Especially in sci-fi type scenarios, where characters can be dropped in the middle of some kind of super advanced virtual reality program and instantly know how to hack it in a few minutes. Amazing.

and it's ALLLLL GUI'd to hell and back so the audience knows what's happening!

Half the time, you can't see what's happening and might not even get an error message, you're just not where you need to be and have to figure out WTF just happened.

For all the unrealistic things about Watch Dogs 2, I love how the easiest way to hack something is often to physically use it because no one properly secured it. "This is why we love the folks who click 'remember me' on the password screen."

ANY computer stuff in movies. All this 'tap tap tap' - normal people use a mouse sometimes, you know!

MTE. I don't need you to be keyboard oriented when you're opening a file.

depending on the attack, you can fight someone with the cmd line, but i've never seen it in a movie

I know zilch about hacking, and know they have to do stuff with computers differently on tv/in movies because they don't film well but yeah - it's all so silly and unrealistic, even to my untrained eye.

I will NEVER GET OVER the time I watched (part of) an episode of CSI Cyber and these two people both used THE SAME KEYBOARD so they could do stuff faster. At the same time.

Hacking is not like playing Chopsticks together on the piano, guys.

Didn't NCIS also do that at some point and it was equally ridiculous?
