Hackers Wanted.
Definitely check out the documentary Hackers Wanted [1], which follows Adrian. I found it interesting how he was able to break into some of the "high-profile computer networks".

I recently watched Hackers Wanted and one of the interesting things the movie pointed out was that when terrorists start becoming hacker savvy, a new war front will be introduced into the world.
