Although it had technical holes you could drive a truck through, the protagonist pulling out a desk's writing leaf to reveal a sheet of passwords was good for a laugh, and the most realistic part of the movie.

Yes, but not nearly as much fun. Besides, what would the little people do with all that electricity? Cook meals? > The Russians already did that when they bought Donald Trump...
