Description

When the DEA shut down its dummy corporation operation codenamed SWORDFISH in 1986, they had generated $400 million which they let sit around; fifteen years of compound interest has swelled it to $9.5 billion. A covert counter-terrorist unit called Black Cell, headed by the duplicitious and suave Gabriel Shear, wants the money to help finance their raise-the-stakes vengeance war against international terrorism, but it's all locked away behind super-encryption. He brings in convicted hacker Stanley Jobson, who only wants to see his daughter Holly again but can't afford the legal fees, to slice into the government mainframes and get the money.

4 out of 5 stars Good movie.......2007-08-24

Tje picture quality is very good, the movie it self is worth of viewing several times, Tarvolta perfomance is excelent.

5 out of 5 stars cool movie,Top notch Blu-ray.......2007-07-20

The movie is great but I wanna tell you about the Blu-ray version,its probly one of the best Blu-ray disc out along with Flyboys maybe even better,the picture is amazing crisp clear zero grain or artifacts,if you own a Blu-ray player this is one of those must have disc.

5 out of 5 stars This is the type of movie made for blu ray.......2007-05-22

All I will say is this film looks and sounds brilliant on blu ray. A must for your collection.

5 out of 5 stars A SUPERB BLU-RAY EXPERIENCE.......2007-04-11

Although I have seen the movie years ago when it was on cinemas across the world and of course on dvd several times, I bought the blu-ray version in order to see the difference. I must admit that the experience was incredible and during the scenes that John Travolta was firing to the FBI agents and Hugh Jackman was driving, it was like that I have been on the street, in the middle of the crossfire.

If you want to experience the blu-ray difference, I strictly recommend the movie. That's how you see the development from DVD to Blu-Ray.

4 out of 5 stars wow......wwwwow.......2007-03-23

They did a good job cleaning this movie to make it look so sharp on HD. So sharp I caught myself rewinding Halle Berry's scene a few times before continuing the movie.

Swordfish is a superficial movie, so let's address the superficial facts: Halle Berry was well paid to bare her breasts in this gratuitous cyber-action thriller, and while Berry's many fans will enjoy a cheap drool at the actress's expense, her brief topless scene doesn't justify this insipid parade of glossy violence from the director of 2000's Gone in 60 Seconds. Add yet another notch in John Travolta's bad-movie belt, and you've got Hollywood bankruptcy in full blossom. Go ahead, marvel at director Dominic Sena's biggest money shot--a 360-degree pan as a robbery hostage is blown to bits by a bomb that pelts a surrounding SWAT squad with deadly ball bearings.

The plot, as if it matters: Travolta's a slick, self-appointed antiterrorist who recruits a top-flight computer hacker (Hugh Jackman) to transfer a $9.5 billion government slush fund into a cluster of secret accounts. Berry's the curvaceous bait who lures Jackman into the scheme; Don Cheadle's an FBI agent hot on their tails; and an obligatory subplot turns Jackman's daughter (Camryn Grimes) into an innocent bargaining chip. By the time a hostage transport bus is airlifted in the film's not-so-thrilling climax, Swordfish will hold your passive attention or put you to sleep--it all depends on your tolerance for Sena's brand of derivative bloodlust. It's pornography of a sort, and efficiently mechanical, but you can bet good money that Berry and her costars didn't cash their paychecks proudly. --Jeff Shannon

3 out of 5 stars Barry and Jackman are better in the X-Men.......2007-09-10

This is a disturbing violent film with John Travolta playing a psychopathic control freak. Halle Barry is his sidekick with Hugh Jackman as the out of work computer expert who is hired to hack into a computer. The plot starts out great and the sub-plot of Stanley wanting to get custody of his daughter softens up the story but it is just too violent. Travolta is just too sweet in that Vinny Barbarino way that makes him unbelievable as a career crimminal.

5 out of 5 stars Unconventional.......2007-07-25

in this movie the good guy wins, the bad guy wins, the hostages blow up, the police lose and you're never sure how you're suposed to feel. i like when a movie doest fit the mold of good guy takes out bad guy, people saved, everyone celebrates... this movie has so many twist and it's so cool to rewatch it to figure out what's really happening.

5 out of 5 stars I really liked it, even more so in HD.......2007-06-14

I thought this was a great movie anyway, in HD it's even better.

4 out of 5 stars Swordfish.......2007-06-08

Another great job by John Travolta and Hugh Jackman, both are great in this movie... John play such a bad boy so good...

3 out of 5 stars Swordfish.......2007-06-02

Travolta is absolutely insane in this movie. He acts like a psychopath. He is crazy. The other actors aren't fit enough to hold Mr. Travolta's coat. He outperforms them all!! Pure evil genius!!

TRAINING DAY Denzel Washington won his second Academy Award?* as a twisted L.A. undercover detective who becomes the kind of thug he's sworn to collar.

      When the DEA shut down its dummy corporation operation codenamed SWORDFISH in 1986, they had generated $400 million which they let sit around; fifteen years of compound interest has swelled it to $9.5 billion. A covert counter-terrorist unit called Black Cell, headed by the duplicitious and suave Gabriel Shear, wants the money to help finance their raise-the-stakes vengeance war against international terrorism, but it's all locked away behind super-encryption. He brings in convicted hacker Stanley Jobson, who only wants to see his daughter Holly again but can't afford the legal fees, to slice into the government mainframes and get the money.

      2 out of 5 stars Is a Puzzlement.......2007-03-24

      Interesting premise, that a lone-wolf terror fighter enlists a computer hacker to liberate funds to finance the process, the genius does so -- AND THEN they go in, litrally, through the bank's front window, with vehicles, guns, explosives. And there's a helicopter ferrying a full-sized bus. So why the hacker and the whole concept? Travolta is manipulating, Halle Berry is appealing, Hugh Jackman genial, especially with Berry, and the character's little girl. Buy it used and donate to a charity thrift-shop.

      4 out of 5 stars Puzzling but Highly Entertaining.......2007-02-07

      This is a very good movie but a little hard to follow. The actors give great performances. The story works on several levels and that is what makes it stand apart from other films in this genre.

              Product Description

              Doug Olander, Editor in Chief, of Sport Fishing Magazine, writes, The waters off a nondescript bluff on the northern Peru coast produced the most remarkable action the world has ever seen for colossal black marlin, abundant swordfish, striped marlin and huge bigeye tuna. No other spot could rival it then: no other spot rivals it now. And it seems increasingly possible that no place ever will. The original 16mm color films, provided by the IGFA, have been magnetically cleaned, transferred and digitized, with unbelievable clarity and crispness, preserving forever an all time classic moment in time. Without question this is one of fishings most historical moments. Baseball great, Ted Williams introduces us to the Cabo Blanco Fishing Club, before heading off the beach, making bait and doing battle with a black marlin weighing in at over 1,200 pounds. S. Rip Farrington picks up the action where Ted leaves of with more spectacular footage showcasing this great fishery in all its grandeur. Cabo Blanco Peru, circa, 1954 this is one youll watch over and over again.
