Hnn...

One hacker is called Axel *Torvalds*... A l33t shout out to Linux?

The other, the protagonist, is named Stanley *Jobs*on... Mac?

Where was Gates, though?

The names were the second biggest problem I had with the movie. It's current implamentation of HollywoodOS was my first problem.

There are more things wrong with it, but I tire quickly of trying to bring them to mind.

A topless Holley Berry was certainly a plus though. Can't go wrong with topless women.

nothing wrong with a topless babe BUT the question is, what was the point of that scene????

the only nice thing about that movie was some of the special effects otherwise it was teh weak movie....

Swordfish was so lame.  Right from the opening scene it was lame... the whole time I kept screaming at John Travolta to shut the fuck up!!! NOW!!!!  Then the movie went downhill from there.

As for Halle Barrie's Boobies (HBB) it was nice to see them, but the scene was completely pointless.  It was the "oh, let's see the HBB scene".  Also they weren't the finest specimens I've ever seen-- a bit droopy.  I see better looking boobies than that every single day at home.  :biggrin:

I was expecting the movie to be lame because John Travolta was in it.

Now, wether or not he made the movie lame is irrelevant, since the end result is a lame movie with John Travolta in it.  How about another scientology, er, L. Ron Hubbard movie, Johnnie?  :biggrin:

If only Tarantino had chosen another forgotten actor from a '70s sitcom... :nono:
