The villain is heard saying; "This isn't about money, this isn't about politics. I can target anyone, anything, anywhere," highlighting how easy it is, in this day and age, for danger to occur through technology. We often get confronted with banking scams and people stealing card details, but Blackhat presents an even bigger threat, one that would affect a lot of people and could potentially bring down the world. There doesn’t seem to be a motive, and they don’t know who the hackers are which makes it all the more enticing.
Blackhat is set for cinema release in the UK on the 20th February next year.
