I didn't realize there was a film about him based on the book  
Takedown. The book was fascinating.  However, I seem to  
remember Mitnick claiming that not everything in the film was  
factual, and the book author gives too much credit to himself  
"capturing" Mitnick. The way I remember the story, Mitnick  
allowed himself to be found.
