Swordfish's idiotic idea of how computer hacking works wouldn't be a problem if the movie were otherwise good. Actually, it wouldn't be a big problem if the movie were bad -- which it is -- either. The real problem is that the movie is bad.

Preposterous action/hacker flick is great fun, as long as you can accept that Travolta's sanctimonious, overwrought opening speech is the key to reading the film proper; this is designed to be a heightened, absurdly silly pot-boiler, though the problem comes in that the screenplay and direction don't quite have the balls (or requisite skill) to take it right over the top where it belongs. Still there's much to enjoy here starting with one of Travolta's weird, 'beginning of the end' performances.

riddled with techno buzzwords and cursed with one of the most idiotic scripts in the genre, swordfish is where every computer nerd's boner go to die. tries to ride on the tailcoat of the matrix by blatantly copying its style, cinematography, score and even color scheme, fails in a spectacular fashion. "hollywood makes bad movies", well no shit, sherlock. the sad thing is jackman and cheadle try to take their jobs seriously. on the flip side, though, are the spectacular boobs of halle berry.

We were so naive pre-9/11. John Travolta has the most confusing facial hair in film history. Did every action film post-Matrix have to look exactly like the Matrix? It's weird to see Hugh in this role as we have been living in a Huge Jackedman future for so long.

As if poor Halle Berry hadn't been through enough, it must have been a terrible day when she was called back for reshoots, only to find producers threatening her at gun point, to show her breasts. This, of course, was after everyone had discovered, that nobody bought into the formula of: hacking plus blowjob minus time = plausibility.

It feels like a high action packed, low plot sequel but it doesn't have a film to be the sequel to. It fails to be entertaining on any level, even the action is pretty bad, and isn't worth watching.

So, Berry shows off her bod, Travolta's got blonde highlights, and Jackman looks like the sixth member of N'Sync: Not necessarily fatal to taking the film seriously but it says something that they're almost the only things I remember aside from a couple good bad-guy monologues, one cool scene where a bus dangles from a helicopter, and one cheesy montage of our hacker protagonist dancing to funk while talking to his computer. A mildly entertaining action thriller, but it's both dated and generic.

Oh, the hype promised so much and the movie delivered so little. Known mostly as the movie for which Halle Berry was paid a very large sum of money to finally show her breasts on screen, which she did in a poorly conceived and directed scene. It went perfectly with the rest of the poorly conceived and directed movie. Also, computer hackers do not look like Hugh Jackman.

I did enjoy Swordfish, although it's a very familiar watch. You know most of the plot already, and apart from a couple of hammered-in action scenes and a couple of confusing twists at the end, it doesn't offer anything new. Travolta is fun as the villain, and I like Jackman as the protagonist, but the whole thing feels bland and a little dull, even if there is some fun to be had. And it's short, which is always a plus, clocking in at only just under 100 minutes.

A pretty slick and cool movie with some pretty out-there set-pieces. John Travoltage is fun in this, but Hugh Jackman's character and his predicament is awfully cliched. And then there's the wicked explosion Matrix-style shot near the beginning (played again near the end because that's how friggen cool it is!!!) and Halle Berry's tits and that's all that's good about this movie.

Such a superb film. Amazing cast, fantastic plot and quite surprising throughout. One of Hugh Jackman's best roles, and Travolta is pretty good as well. Only bad things were the weird and unnecessary twist and the funny 90's style 'cool hacker' music. Weird that The Matrix had the same style and yet that music was good.

There exists a world within our world. A world beneath what we call cyberspace. A world protected by firewalls, passwords and the most advanced security systems. In this world we hide our deepest secrets, our most incriminating information, and of course, a whole lot of money. This is the world of "Swordfish." The world's most dangerous spy is hired by the CIA to coerce a computer hacker recently released from prison to help steal $6 billion in unused government funds.

Swordfish is a sickly film to watch. When I use the term sickly I'm referring to the films overall visual look. The lighting creates a horribly yellow, musty, sweaty looking film. The whole film is in fact an ugly and underwhelming experience. Ultimately Travolta is a silly haired terrorist, Jackman plays with computers whilst being played with, there's plenty of explosions, a TVR car chase and even Berry's exquisite breasts can't salvage things. All in all a completely ridiculous film.

The 20 is for Halle Berry's tits. They stuck them in the scene for absolutely no reason. Earlier she's changing and they show nothing. Then she's reading in a lawnchair and whoomp there they are. All 1.2 seconds of them. Absolute definition of gratuitous nudidty, strategically placed at the point many would consider walking out of the film.
