Fortunately, I didn't listen to the comments on the Internet, a very good film!

I heard about this film for a long time, but it is said that the reputation on the Internet is not good.
I read it recently, but fortunately I haven't listened to the comments on the Internet.

Personally, I feel that this film is very good, the opening is very shocking, but what makes me strange is that I really don't know why most people are impressed by that 360 degree.

For me, this scene is really good, because very few of these effects are used in this type of film. But what struck me the most was the protagonist's opening remarks, which were very bold. At first, I wondered if the director didn't want to be in Hollywood.

I haven't watched many of John Travolta's films, but I have a good impression of him. Although his plays are a bit stereotyped, they are full of tension. I don't know if it was the reason for the handsome guy's debut in his early years, so he always gave people a rebellious feeling in it. A simple scene is very evocative. For example:
in a place like a church, the hacker delivers the goods to the protagonist, the protagonist takes the CD, takes out his mobile phone and dials the hacker to confirm the payment, it is such a simple plot , under the interpretation of John Travolta is so extraordinary and eye-catching. It is no exaggeration to say that I have watched this scene for less than 30 seconds no less than 10 times.
As for the values ​​of sickness + innocent children and the belief of the male protagonist in the film---this is just a commercial film, don't ask for any ideological breakthroughs, this topic that has been discussed badly today has become a topic that hardly ever Any thoughts that make waves in the mind. This topic is good or bad for the whole film. As for those who try to use this topic to make a serious judgment on the thoughts of directors and even Americans, it is absurd that their swords are slanted. After all, this is not an educational film or a documentary. Moreover, the director has no such idea at all.

BTW, I really don't feel the hacker's claws and claws in front of the computer and the dew point of the supporting actress. In my opinion, it's not as attractive as the black police officer's role. In addition, the color of this film seems to be too exaggerated in the rendering of yellow tones, giving people a feeling of being too overdone.
In short, this is a qualified commercial film, and it can also give people some small surprises. You must know that there are indeed very few films that can bring you surprises these days.

    "Multi-screen system" is too funny

    I remember that when my mother had an invoice from my unit, I could go to the cinema to watch this film. I didn’t know the title and content, so I avoided it. Now I think back on it, I don’t regret it at all. Except for supporting the scene, I still support the scene. Only that little girl is sweet enough!

Swordfish quotes

  • Stanley: It's not gonna end like this.

    Gabriel: Oh, come on, Stan. Not everything ends the way you think it should. Besides, audiences love happy endings.

  • Gabriel: Have you ever heard of Harry Houdini? Well he wasn't like today's magicians who are only interested in television ratings. He was an artist. He could make an elephant disappear in the middle of a theater filled with people, and do you know how he did that? Misdirection.

    Stanley: What the fuck are you talking about?

    Gabriel: Misdirection. What the eyes see and the ears hear, the mind believes.
