Swordfish (2001) - Swordfish (2001) Official Trailer - John Travolta, Halle Berry Movie HD

The most positive review

One of my all-time favorite guilty pleasures has it all with a convoluted plot, insane Bay-like explosions, that orange-tinge the early aughts were known for (also see Gone in 60 Seconds) and John Travolta sporting a soul-patch. Saw this one in theaters back in 2001 and like to put it on very couple of years when I feel like relaxing. **4.0/5**
