In the news today:

quote:
Film Critic Belatedly Comes Up With Swordfish Zinger
AMARILLO, TX� Some seven months after the film's theatrical release, Amarillo Globe-News movie critic Irwin Hough thought up a brilliant put-down for Swordfish Monday. "Make no mistake, I'm proud of the line I thought up at the time, 'This Fish should have been tossed back,'" Hough said. "But I have to admit, that just isn't as sharp as 'Swordfish is one cold fish that deserves to tank.'"

hum.. i think i did.. hehe

John travolta was playing the role of a psycho and he offers that other guy (from X-Men)...I think his name is Hugh something.. hehe

anyways he offers him $10 million to break into a government computer system so he can steal $9.5 billion .

Oh and they chose this guy Hugh to do the job because He was the world�s best hacker until he was sent to jail for destroying a program that enabled the government to look at anyone�s e-mail or something like that...

so yeah u get the picture of the rest of the movie...

That personally wasnt one of my fave movies...

well i would have to just say that TECHNICALLY, shes a hottie, but- the reason i dont like her is because shes a friggin idiot. didja know that she hasnt been in ONE, but MULTIPLE hit and run accidents in her life? thats fucking retarded.

as for the title, dont know, cant really say. i think the whole swordfish thing is just a cool word to make a password in a movie. since its *technically* the govts password on their secret money, if i remember the movie correctly. it may have something to do with the swordfishe's place in lore or myth of some sort, but then id have to friggin learn about swordfish and why the hell would i do that? late/

Ewwwwwwwwwww.

Behind enemy lines is total blah. Dun go see it if you can avoid it...lol. Go watch The Lord of The Rings instead!

I think the name is just Swordfish (no "password" in the title)... why? b/c i have the DVD.... on the cover it just says "Swordfish"... at the title screen (dvd menu) it just says "Swordfish".... at the beginning of the movie... text is typed on the screen, saying just "Swordfish".

maybe they changed the title for European release...

I happen to LOVE this movie (all about FBI/hacker/special effects movies i am....)

In the end, Travolta NEVER got on that helicopter... he led everyone (including that Hugh guy) to believe he did, so when they blew it up, they thought they killed him... but they really didnt.

Also, they pretended to hang Halle Berry... they didn't really hang her... this created the illusion to the "hugh" guy that she was dead. she wasn't.

Thats how the two made their getaway. And they are seen later in the Mediterranean (or wherever) on their boat living large.

I didn't really have trouble understanding it, but if you have any other questions, just ask.
