Movie (1992)

"We could tell you what it's about. But then, of course, we'd have to kill you."

When shadowy U.S. intelligence agents blackmail a reformed computer hacker and his eccentric team of security experts into stealing a code-breaking "black box" from a Soviet-funded genius, they uncover a bigger conspiracy. Now, he and his "sneakers" must save themselves and the world economy by retrieving the box back from their blackmailers.

The term commonly used to describe "information phishing" (e.g., trying to get a person to divulge her password) as applied by hackers, is Social Engineering.
Movie Goof (incorrectly regarded as a mistake): It is often asked how Bishop gets the answering machine into the office. He carries the backpack in his briefcase - this can be seen when he opens it in the engineer's office. The answering machine can be seen in the backpack.
Movie Goof (anachronisms): In the opening scene set in 1969, the display terminal is clearly showing IBM VGA 40-column text. The IBM VGA standard was not developed until 1987.
Cast member James Earl Jones was the only actor to appear in all of the first three Jack Ryan films: The Hunt for Red October, Patriot Games, and Clear and Present Danger. Director Phil Alden Robinson went on to direct The Sum of All Fears, the only film in the series in which Jones did not appear.
