a5c7b9f00b When the DEA shut down its dummy corporation operation codenamed SWORDFISH in 1986, they had generated $400 million which they let sit around; fifteen years of compound interest has swelled it to $9.5 billion. A covert counter-terrorist unit called Black Cell, headed by the duplicitious and suave Gabriel Shear, wants the money to help finance their raise-the-stakes vengeance war against international terrorism, but it's all locked away behind super-encryption. He brings in convicted hacker Stanley Jobson, who only wants to see his daughter Holly again but can't afford the legal fees, to slice into the government mainframes and get the money.
In this futuristic technology spy movie, John Travolta plays Gabriel Shear, a man who is desperately trying to access information that is locked inside a complicated computer system that contains mountains of government secrets - and money. He hires Stanley Jobson (Hugh Jackman), a desperate computer expert, to help him hack into the system.
I thought that Swordfish was the #3 film on my top ten list for movies of the summer of 2001. The special effects were absolutley incredible, the acting was brilliant, and the writing was very bizarre. In fact, John Travolta's monologue in the opening scene was very slick because of the way he explained Hollywood's policys and styles of filmmaking. I also thought that the directing by Dominic Sena (Gone in Sixty Seconds) was very well done, and the producing by Joel Silver (The Matrix 1, 2, 3) couldn't have been better.<br/><br/>A recently jailed computer hacker named Stanley (Hugh Jackman) has been living in Texas on parole and has just had a visitor. His visitor was a sexy DEA agent named Ginger (Halle Berry) who has given him an offer that will reward him millions. Her offer was to have Stanley go to Los Angeles and meet a terrorist named Gabriel (John Travolta). When Stanley accepts the job, he meets Gabriel and discovers that Gabriel wants him to hack in codes to banks that will transfer unused government funds to Gabriel's account so that Gabriel can develop a whole new technology and intensity to terrorism throughout the world.<br/><br/>I love the first action sequence of the movie because it was the same camera concept Joel Silver used for The Matrix when Keanu Reeves dodges the bullets.<br/><br/>I honestly hope that Joel Silver will produce a sequel to Swordfish and have Dominic Sena come back to direct it.<br/><br/>Produced by Joel Silver, and directed by Dominic Sena, Swordfish is a knockout thriller that was one of the best movies of the summer of 2001!
There are bad movies and then there is Swordfish. THe only thing good about this whole movie is the first 5 minutes. John travolta gives a cool speach and a cool explosion happens and then it all goes down the crapper.Its an ok plot but its done so bad. I knew the movie was bad when they had hallie berry topless. IT looked good but you could tell that the movie alone wouldnt bring people in so they paid her a little more to take her top off. THen there is suddenly explosions when there shouldnt be and the ending is so stupid!!!!!!!!!! Dont watch this film. Id rather watch LOSt world again ( and thats saying something)
The cinema of morons made by morons for morons, Swordfish is everything you expect but worse.
