Swordfish

This was a really, really entertaining, engaging and compelling movie that I was very pleased to know that I have seen. This combines some of my favourite movie genres and elements together and it works out brilliantly. It has just as much action as it does comedy. It is just as much a thriller as it is a mystery flick. If ANY of those interest you, then I can guarantee that you will enjoy this, even if only a little.

The plot comes across as quite complex, but after contemplating after the movie and really giving it some thought, it is a lot more simple as it seems. My opinion is that the ending was brilliant. Somethings that could have been picked out, but for me was a surprise. For me it was also satisfying, something that isn't always the case for a movie like this.

John Travolta was really amazing. I actually found his character quite likable, and he played him to perfection. Hugh Jackman had a vital role and he pulled it off really well. Halle Berry was slightly better than average, while Don Cheadle's role to me didn't seem quite as important as some others.. he gave a great performance. Oh, and two thumbs up to Vinnie Jones, too.

Overall this is a highly enjoyable film that I'd recommend for anyone to see.
