I feel like Hackers should be ranking higher when this question comes up.

Viewers often clock the misrepresentation of technology, but with hindsight, that was the key thing that makes it such an accurate representation of life at that time: Consumers/civilians were dramatically oversold, in terms of near-future expectations.

And it also does a good job at capturing the "rebel without a clue" vibe that was kind of a hallmark among the kids I grew up with.

Dont get me wrong my job is sometimes stressful. I work with kids in therapeutics foster care as a skillbuilder. So I drive all over and work with kids on goals. Much of the time we are just hanging out and going out to eat. But some weeks I dont have visits for 3 days. Many days I check my emails, then watch YouTube for 6 hours. Then take a drive to see a kid. Go out to eat with kid, then go home. I have to be on call one week every 4 months. That can cause me to get calls at 3am and sit with a kid at a psych center 2 hours away, or police calling me.

[-]

77evens@reddit

Eh, I thought this flick was just a pussy version of Kids. I remember nothing from it other than it was obvious who the director was. The beauty of Kids was that it was made during the mid 90’s by a teenager. You can’t really get much closer to zeitgeist unless it was an actual documentary.

[-]

itsmestanard@reddit

Yeah but plenty/(majority?) of us didn't live the life as portrayed in Kids. Maybe we partied a decent amount and did some dumb things, but never anything fucked up.

Mid-90s was also pretty amazing at how well it captured the 90s 25 years later. At no point did it feel like modern day actors wearing 90s outfits with bad haircuts, the whole vibe was just spot on.

[-]

77evens@reddit

I agree w/ your point on Kids. I certainly didn’t grow up in NYC and that’s almost its own character in that film. Maybe I should watch Mid-90’s again. The only thing I remember from watching it was being bored and thinking, of course Jonah Hill directed this shit. But I may have to give it another shot.
