Ketrivie It isn't all that great, actually. Really cheesy and very predicable of how certain scenes are gonna turn play out. However, I guess that's the charm of it all, because I would consider this one of my guilty pleasures.
ChampDavSlim The acting is good, and the firecracker script has some excellent ideas.
Rio Hayward All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.
Ezmae Chang This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.
bhautik_gandhi Look, if you are here in 2018 or after trying to figure out whether you should watch this, you know exactly what you want to watch. You want to watch a movie with Hugh Jackman, Halle Berry, and John Travolta, some silly 2001 hacking montage, and a fun thriller. This movie has it. Don't think too hard, its a fun movie.
adonis98-743-186503 A covert counter-terrorist unit called Black Cell led by Gabriel Shear wants the money to help finance their war against international terrorism, but it's all locked away. Gabriel brings in convicted hacker Stanley Jobson to help him. Despite being a bit slow at times 'Swordfish' digs the villain more than the hero and John Travolta does an insane amount of well done job as the villain, the same goes for Hugh Jackman as Stan and Halle Berry as Ginger. This is a well written film with a well written plot, characters and even with flaws it's a better movie than it gets credit for. (8/10)
damonsomers This is the worst move I've ever seen in my life. The money that went into it was the only reason for its pathetic short expensive life. Every person involved was only interested in money. Any person involved in this ^&$(#@ should be barred from making any other films. Any person that enjoyed this pile of stinking dog excrement should stick to suicide instead. thank you.
Bradley Baum This is the second dreadful film I have seen today, the first being The Other Woman. The script is virtually non-existent, the plot line makes no real sense, and the ending is absolutely terrible yet this drivel was given the green light! WHY?!?! The only way it could have been improved would have been to have lots more gratuitous shots of Halle Berry in lots of different underwear and lots of gratuitous shots of Halley Berry topless as seeing her breasts for the first time on film/in a film and in underwear (even though she was unfortunately wearing a thong) were easily the two best parts of this rubbish! Now for me to type the previous sentence just proves how bad this film is! Don't get me wrong here as lots of gratuitous shots of the delectable Halle Berry in any film she is in would always be lovely but in this film they really were the two best parts of the film! That has to tell you just how bad this film is as there are absolutely no other good parts! The ending leaves unanswered questions in your head that should not be there making a dreadful film even worse! AVOID AT ALL COSTS!
