Blackhat Blu-Ray

WE NO LONGER HAVE CONTROL.

Michael Mann (Thief, Collateral), the acclaimed writer known for his action-packed films and commitment to cinematic realism, turns his attention to the high-stakes world of global cybercrime in Blackhat, a modern, ripped-from-the-headlines twist on the spy thriller.

Chris Hemsworth (The Avengers, Extraction) plays the lead role as Nick Hathaway, a talented hacker who is currently serving a long prison sentence. When a nuclear power plant in Hong Kong goes into meltdown after its security system is breached, Chinese Army cyber security captain Chen Dawai (Leehom Wang, Lust, Caution) offers his old college roommate a deal: help identify and arrest the culprit in exchange for his own freedom. What follows is a frenetic, globe-trotting race against time to avert disaster, filled with hidden agendas and shifting loyalties.

Blackhat has been praised for its unusually accurate portrayal of cybersecurity and features an impressive international cast, including Tang Wei (Decision to Leave), Viola Davis (The Woman King), and Yorick van Wageningen (The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo), and showcases one of cinema's finest filmmakers using the skills he has honed over a long and historic career to tackle a distinctly 21st-century phenomenon.
