Since September I’ve been taking acting classes at CBU Actor’s Studio. Now that I need to find scenes for my designated partner and I each month, I’ve been inclined to watch more movies and TV. Prior to this, I only ever watched content I truly felt would inspire me.. or something - never just to watch something. I’m still this way! But now I’m open to experiencing a show or movie just to watch the acting. Alternatively, that last sentence doesn’t lead me into the movie Hackers (1995) because this one has actually been calling my name for awhile! Now that I live in a space with almost all of the big streaming networks (thank you, roomies) I finally got a chance to watch this.

First of all, Angelina Jolie has made an impact on my identity from the moment I watched her in Mr. & Mrs. Smith. A good looking married couple kicking ass in nothing but rainboots and bedwear, yes please. I thought Angelina to be very refined, elegant, and beautiful with an edge. Even her personal life (from what I’ve seen in the media) inspires me. Her experimental phase as a young person to the U.N. to directing and producing her own movies is admirable.

HOWEVER! Angelina isn’t the main focus of this post. I was ffflllaabberggassteedd when I saw a young Marc Anthony in a FBI suit. That’s right, we have Marc Anthony in this flick and oddly enough, we look alike; who knew. I didn’t know!

Like really…

If you don’t know what I look like - here’s a link to me.

I didn’t focus too much on the acting in this movie, I’m not going to lie. It was pure entertainment of 90’s tech era in nyc featuring a well known cast. I also found some of it relatable to today this time (2020). Also, one little thing I noticed was a Supreme sticker on a laptop.

Can you see it?
