    • Open Source Code
      2011, Thriller

      Jake Gyllenhall stars as a soldier who relives the last eight minutes of a bomb-laden commuter train over and over, each iteration slightly different thanks to contributions from the community at large.

      Rating: 3.5/3.5.1/3.5.2 out of 5

      slide 1

    • Planet of the Apes: Rise of the APIs
      2011, Science Fiction

      Notable for the motion-captured CGI performance of Andy Serkis (Lord of the Rings) as a genetically modified, hyper-intelligent chimpanzee who creates a Facebook game, Angry Apes, that wipes out Farmville.

      Rating: Two hairy thumbs up

      slide 2

    • The SQL Tree of Life
      2011, Drama

      Director Terence Malik’s latest opus centres on the roots of a family with three boys, the eldest traversing the country to reconcile with his father and querying the meaning of life. No, I didn’t think this one was funny, either.

      Rating: *+23

      slide 3

    • The Help Desk
      2011, Drama

      A spunky line-of-business manager exposes the dreary, depressing conditions of her company’s technical support operations. Trust me, this one’s a five-hanky weeper.

      Rating: Ctl+Alt+Del

      slide 4

    • The Smurfs-as-a-Service
      2011, Animated

      Little blue people who can’t afford to live by themselves anymore make their way to the city to offer on-demand IT consulting to the surprise and delight of sceptical CIOs.

      Rating: Really? Smurfs?

      slide 5

    • Cowboys and Aliens and VARs
      2011, Science Fiction

      Tempers flare as a band of redneck farmhands try to fend off an attack from outer space by trying to source some high-tech weapons, only to have cost-prohibitive responses to their RFP.

      Rating: 6-shooters

      slide 6

    • Crazy, Stupid Love of Social Media
      2011, Comedy

      Spurned by his bitter ex-wife, a man tries to remake his life by doing everything he is suggested to do via Twitter, Facebook and Google+, only to be mobbed by an army of smitten Mark Zuckerberg lookalikes.

      Rating: +1

      slide 7

    • No Search Strings Attached
      2011, Comedy

      Natalie Portman and Ashton Kutcher (really?) star as a man and a women trying to keep their relationship purely physical, but realize they’re looking for something more. On Google.

      Rating: 1 of 325,491 results

      slide 8

    • Quarantine 2: Terminal Emulator
      2011, Thriller

      Survivors of a virus attack band together to save their quarantined PCs. Filmed in black and green.

      Rating: 1 out of 101

      slide 9

    • Shark Night: 3D
      2011, Horror

      OK, so this has nothing to do with tech. But it’s got sharks. In 3D. You know you wanna see it.

      Rating: dun-dun dun-dun dun-DUN DUN-DUN

      slide 10

    • A Dangerous Method Call
      2011, Thriller

      Code written by Carl Jung and Sigmund Freud conflicts, driving debuggers crazy.

      Rating: 1 cigar
