"Log On. Hack In. Go Anywhere. Get Everything."

When the Drugs Enforcement Agency shut down Operation Swordfish in 1986, the operation had raised $400 million. This amount, which has still not been done, has now risen to 9.5 billion. An anti-terrorist unit called Black Cell wants to use the money in its fight against international terrorism, but the money is well kept. Convicted hacker Stanley Jobson is called in to get the money.

How do you hack into a Defense computer in one minute while getting a blowjob (by a woman luckily!) and a gun pointed at your head? You experience this in the glitzy action movie Swordfish. This is a review that I was really looking forward to, as I have the DVD on my shelf and also have fond memories of this film. And yes, let yourself be carried away from start to finish by this smooth spectacle with a wonderful Travolta as a super terrorist "to protect your way of life" and a sensual Halle Berry who just got half a million dollars extra to show her tits. Looks visually like a typical Tony Scott movie. I thought it was daring to start the movie in the middle of the action without losing the suspense. The ending is also memorable, but unfortunately there was never a sequel.

Seen Swordfish before but I don't understand that hacking place a hydra, do a worm that or this.

Yes, this was a decent movie.

Well, this movie is over 20 years old.

It's a great cast though.

John Travolta again as bad guy after Broken arrow, (1996) and later The punisher, (2004).

Hugh Jackman puts down a good hacker.

Halle Berry for Die another day.

And well-known television actor Rudolf Martin plays a small part in this movie as Axl Torvalds.

Swordfish is a wonderful thriller with beautiful scenes that follow each other at a rapid pace. The cast does a great job and the atmosphere is good. You feel this, you see this. Wonderful movie.
