]]> 7259 The Great Hack, 2019 – ★★★½ https://movieadaychallenge.com/the-great-hack-2019-%e2%98%85%e2%98%85%e2%98%85%c2%bd/ Thu, 15 Aug 2019 00:00:00 +0000 http://movieadaychallenge.com/?p=7257 Movie #229 watched on 8/15/2019.
Director: Jehane Noujaim, Karim Amer | Writer(s): Pedro Kos, Erin Barnett, Karim Amer Interesting documentary. It tries to balance blaming the technology and blaming people’s use of the technology. I feel like most people would watch this documentary, be scared or shocked by it and then just return to their normal day-to-day use of the internet and social media. This film is a warning that I feel will fall on deaf ears.
