I liked the movie, and most of the plot was fine... probably some minor plot holes if I wanted to nitpick, but good enough. But that one really bothered me. The whole plot hinged on it working, and it was so totally absurd! At least usually they make up an explanation or have some kind of lame excuse... this had nothing. It just assumed that you believed that the people in charge of the computer systems have made all this great stuff but are so incompetent that they forgot to disable his security clearance... and the biggest problem is they did it without mention! I mean, they could at least have had him say like "lucky they don't disable my clearance for X time after being fired (as totally absurd and illogical as that would be, at least it'd be SOMEHTHING)"... but no, he just gets in after being fired. Normally I don't mind plot holes but that was one of the more gaping ones in recent memory... I just think that they could have come up with a better solution.
Still, it was a good movie. That just hurt it some.
