I saw this movie and I couldn't believe that it even made the box office. the acting was cheesy, the women were protrayed as sex objects, deceptive and flighty. The "Bill-Gates" couldn't act to save his life and the music was... Full review

As bad as the story is, it pales in comparison to the terrible acting. I can't believe Tim Robbins took on the Bill Gates-like role. This would have made a great made for TV movie. Too bad the public demands more... Full review

This movie obviously is trying to make Microsoft look bad. It does a good job of doing that, but it is a horrible movie. The story is ok, the acting is horrendous though. And I bet a better remake of this... Full review

Though somewhat predictable I think that Antitrust sends a clear message about who it is targeting and why. Above and beyond that it is a fun suspense movie with some very talented and attractive yet underated acting talent. Rachel Liegh Cook... Full review

From that point on, director Peter Howitt ("Sliding Doors") lets "Antitrust" slip from potentially decent yarn to an improbable narrative and, finally, to climactic absurdity.
Antitrust" begins with an engaging setup but gradually lapses into a messy web of cloak-and-dagger contrivance, implausible action, silly plot twists and dumb dialogue.

the Pepsi machine gives the film's best performance.....his Milo is able to let himself be navigated through the mechanical plot without tripping over the furniture.....like The Net , the last truly silly movie about typing, Antitrust oversimplifies to the point that nothing really makes sense.....Antitrust will have you in ecstasy..... ...

Aside from the logical gaffes, uninspired acting and the excesses of editing and special effects, it is not a bad movie, but it isn't quite good, either.
The production values are high, with lush sets and fancy special effects.
