Computer expert Martin Bishop heads a team of renegade hackers--including a former CIA employee, a gadgets wizard, a young genius and a blind soundman--who are routinely hired to test security systems. Bishop's past comes back to haunt him when government agents blackmail the "sneakers" into carrying out a covert operation: tracking down an elusive black box. Along with his former girlfriend, Bishop's team retrieves the box and makes a stunning discovery--the device can break into any computer system in the world. With factions from all sides willing to kill for the powerful box, Bishop and his team embark on their most dangerous assignment ever in this exhilarating high-tech caper from director Phil Alden Robinson.
