Swordfish
2001
Rogue agent Gabriel Shear (John Travolta) is determined to get his mitts on $9 billion stashed in a secret Drug Enforcement Administration account. He wants the cash to fight terrorism, but lacks the computer skills necessary to hack into the government mainframe. Enter Stanley Jobson (Hugh Jackman), a n'er-do-well encryption expert who can log into anything. Halle Berry co-stars (in the buff!) in this high-tech thrill ride.

Definitely a good popcorn flick. If this movie isn't Travolta's best performance it must be close - the opening sequence of this movie is top notch. The unrealistic hacking sequences can be forgiven - the director was clearly aiming for a fun factor.
