I liked one bit of that movie, when Hugh Jackman is pacing around muttering "I'm too old for this shit" and finishing a bottle of wine during a coding session.

That "building the worm" scene has got to be my favorite depiction of software development of all time.

Oh, man. I forgot how much I hated that particular scene. It was almost as bad as the "60-second crack" scene.
