Watch Travolta's Perfect Crime!

Travolta played a lot of unforgettable villains, but often failed to end well. This time, he finally staged a perfect crime in "Swordfish", and finally he was at ease.
Although he is a villain, he is also endowed with the image of a hawkish patriot, which makes him finally get his wish without causing strong disgust, but at the same time he is suspected of advocating American power. The United States in those days looked very consistent with this film, but now it seems a bit embarrassing.
The whole film is great, but I personally think it's lacking in two points: Hugh Jackman's "High" looks a bit cheap when he was a computer bug; Halle Berry's point is not good.

    I remember that when my mother had an invoice from my unit, I could go to the cinema to watch this film. I didn’t know the title and content, so I avoided it. Now I think back on it, I don’t regret it at all. Except for supporting the scene, I still support the scene. Only that little girl is sweet enough!

    The improvisational programming of Hugh Jackman, the 360° circular burst of the bright opening, the perseverance and cruelty of John Travolta, the bohemian nakedness of Harry Berry, and the BJ are all bright spots. Airplanes, cranes, missiles, ships, Americans don't take money seriously when filming. It is a good-looking action movie, but the logic is a bit of a joke, or the result is in order to echo the different ending of the story.

Swordfish quotes

  • Stanley: [Stanley is going to drive Gabriel's car during a shoot-out with the police] I can't drive this thing!

    Gabriel: Learn!

  • Axl Torvalds: He exists in a world beyond your world. What we only fantasize, he does. He lives a life where nothing is beyond him. But you know what? It's all a facade. For all his charm and charisma, his wealth, his expensive toys... he's a driven, unflinching, calculating machine. He takes what he wants, when he wants... and disappears.
