It's a morality tale. . . .

Swordfish is by far my favorite movie of all time. If you read my other reviews, you will notice that I do not say that about any other movies but this one. The true draw to this is the intelligent story behind. This one is gonna make you think, kids. The entire movie turns out to be more of a morality tale, but they do it in such a subtle way that you don't realize as your watching it. Most of these type of action movies are as memorable as a wet fart. Lets face it, hollywood likes to flood the market with them, and I truly feel that this movie didn't get the credit it deserved. Don't be misled with my review though, at first it comes off as a gangster movie because of girls going topless and a b. j. in the first ten or fifteen minutes of it. This is just to drive across the point of what type of man John Travolta's character is. The true selling point of this movie is how far would you go to get something that you truly desired. What length would you go to until you drew that line of what is too evil, or for that matter, what is evil. All of these questions are thrown right at you without even noticing it, oh, and for the guys out there, yes Halle Berry does go topless. On my scale, I give it a 10 out of 5. Yes it is that good it broke my scale. "Oh, she's good, isn't she."
