The film Under Siege II has some of the best hacking scenes and dialog.

Even at a young age, the line "This is the guy that hacked into the Pentagon with a laptop" made me WTF because unless you're brute forcing encryption, the kind of computer you use to backdoor a system is irrelevant.

To be fair most real world hacking has nothing to do with processing power, usually you just trick someone into giving you low level access and then escalate privaliges from there because even pentagon employees are prone to leaving their passwords written down on word documents once your inside the thinnestl ayer of security.. Not even exagerating there, some kids went to jail for hacking the pentagon via a games company which they got access to via some credentials on a laptop left unnatended at a comic con.

I guess, it's the precursor of this meme:

There's only one example I can think of where this isnt the case. I don't remember the whole story but I saw a YT video about this kid who got arrested for hacking Rockstar games. He ended up getting arrested and while in federal custody in some hotel room, he successfully hacked them again with a fucking amazon fire stick. After that he told the judge that we had no intention of stopping. Being under the age of 18, I don't think he really had any harsh consequences but good for him, that legend.

Edit: so he was 18 during the second hack.

I once crashed my universitys time share servera with a Nintendo DS Lite. I think that’s worth something, but generally I absolutely agree.
