La forma realista y muy seria de Mann vuelve a funcionar muy bien, y una escena, desafortunadamente no la final, también es cautivadora en su impacto en el desarrollo de la historia. El carácter intransigente de Hemsworth, siendo un hacker convicto, ayuda a subir el nivel de la película. Pero el problema está en el guión, que simplemente no es inteligente y no está adaptado adecuadamente a la forma única de Mann (y que quedaría mejor si lo dirigiera un director de clase B y lo protagonizara Wesley Snipes). Las películas de Mann no necesitan una trama complicada. Son fuertes en la representación psicológica de los personajes principales y su ubicación fatídica en conspiraciones criminales banales pero agudas. Blackhat trabaja con una trama criminal nada banal y por desgracia la presenta de manera demasiado simple, al igual que la descripción psicológica de los personajes.

The overall concept is more than interesting, but the slow narrative style doesn't add much to the film. 132 minutes is too much for a film where not much happens. On the other hand, the uncompromising and intelligent main character, who has computers in his sights, is certainly cool, but I expected more IT gadgets, but that is made up for by the surprisingly very good action!! The film features only four action scenes, but they are very high quality. The very first action scene in the bar, is so uncompromising, hard, with perfect sound design, that you will want to watch it at least once again (the cadence of the punches is still ringing in my ears now, I thought, what, this is not a Korean film?!! ), but you will also enjoy the various shootouts, which are very realistically and authentically filmed, watching them you feel like you are watching news footage, and my jaw dropped at the end. Michael Mann really delivers and shows us a Chris Hemsworth more pissed off than ever, and that scene with the screwdriver and knife reminded me of the final fatality from The Raid 2, so in terms of action, I'm very satisfied, it's just a shame there wasn't more of it. 65%.

Thor may not have his hammer, but he does just fine with a keyboard and a screwdriver. And Michael Mann, due to various technical finesse, sometimes tries the viewers' attention too much and cannot shoot for a clean target, but his electrifying style is still equally captivating. Predecessors like Heat and Collateral are occasionally clearly visible, and that's a good thing. Digital, bullets, Chris Hemsworth, hands gripping the armrests, and a pulsating soundtrack by Harry Gregson-Williams and Atticus Ross. And a heart still beating to the rhythm even now.

Mann has still got it six years later. To see how skillfully he wields the narrative language, taking shortcuts at important moments while taking the time to develop the personal levels of the characters, is simply a joy. It's too bad that the script is one of those where the filmmaker was either pushed to the wall or squandered his potential himself. The surprising civility and moderation, where hacking isn't done by hanging ten monitors around the protagonist (wave to Swordfish), is brought down by the totally watered-down second half where interest in anything (and yet the build-up to the hard-hitting finale is there) wanes. This isn’t even fixed by the uncompromising twist (Mann has always been able to be quite inhumane to his supporting characters), and despite the fact that even though we've seen this sort of "walking" finale from Mann before, he still manages to film it in such a way that it has the right kind of gradation. [Hemsworth is likable and he puts the effort in, but this typecasting is the major casting failure of the year and I didn't buy it for even a second.]

Mann is undoubtedly capable of more than only making a "sophisticated B-movie". But it's still more entertaining and disproportionately better shot than most of the other movies in this genre. It is a slowly developing thriller in a trademark Mann's neon hypnosis style, where computers replace guns and command lines bullets. And to its detriment, the movie is largely ruined by the final scene with "two person on the run longing for revenge" that immediately turns it into overplayed mediocre genre movie that has nothing to offer and is completely predictable.
