I agree with the reviewer the high tech jargon was a little bit much but it was still captivating enough to keep my overall interest.

Hello Oscar -
Yes, the director, Tony Scott and screenwriters, Marsilii & Rossio, expected a great deal from the moviegoer with this film. It was a bit of chore keeping up with the jargon, but worth the journey, in my view. Thank you for your comment.
