Oh. My. God.
Jul. 1st, 2001 10:07 amSaw "Swordfish" yesterday. Wow. Very, very.. wow.
This is one of those movies you'd have to see a few times to really "get". Not that I would mind. *g* 'Cause Hugh in this movie is just to die for. Don't believe me? Well, take a look a this promo shot.
Please excuse my half-baked rambling and drooling over Hugh.

Confusing opening sequence. Over half the movie is a flashback, including one scene I really wasn't a fan of... The club scene and Stan's little test. Was that cheap ho really necessary? Er.. I suppose...
Halle was good in this; Travolta was... interesting. Glad to see Don Cheadle hasn't dropped off the face of the Earth after Picket Fences ended.
Lots of stuff got blown-up. Hugh Jackman is a hottie. The cinematography was cool. Did I mention that Hugh is a hottie? That earring.. and the tatt... *thud*
There was a very cute scene of Stan writting the code for the worm. 'Kay, so it wasn't supposed to be cute, but come on. You can't be female, watch that scene and tell me he wasn't incredibly adorable. 'Cause he was. Ooooooh, and when he went to see his daughter, Holly, and brought her a stuffed animal. That was sooo sweet!
Glad that frickin' dunk-ass skank of a wife got killed at the end. She deserved it. I mean, gods, Stanley only got thrown into jail for being a hacker! 'Sides, he was sabotaging the government's Carnivore program. That's a good thing. ::rolls eyes:: Trailer trash ho.
The ending was crafty. I'm gonna leave it at that.

On a side note, I saw the trailer for Jet Li's new movie, "Kiss of the Dragon." It was very cool to see two "Nikita" alumn in the film: Tcheky Karyo from the original French film and Bridget Fonda from the US remake, "Point of No Return." It looks like Bridg plays a Nikita-esque character in this film. Might have to check it out.
