    I remember a scene of such a crime movie that was at least funny for people used to computers and progrmmers.

    The (old and seasoned) detectives were brought in contact with the new “cyber unit” of the police. Stored away in an otherwise empty office floor somewhere, they were the absolute movie style hackers: cluttered desks, sloppy outfit, beards. The old detectives were quite reluctant to work with those young “computer people” and had a lot of prejudices. Then, one of the detectives found a big red button on the desk and said “I wonder what happens when I press this button” - and presses it. And the “cyber guys”: “DON’T!”. The detective mocks them, and presses the button several times before he asks what the button actually does. Cyber guy: “That is our ‘order pizza’ button! I hope you’ve got enough money to pay for this…”. Cut. Next scene: They are all eating pizza together from a desk-high stack of pizza boxes.
