Swordfish

This computer thriller, about a criminal mastermind (John Travolta) and the oh-so-hip hacker he corrupts (Hugh Jackman), showcases Hollywood at its most soulless. Full of
nasty, empty attitudes and overblown, callous action, it even manages to drain the charisma from Travolta (who once again overacts while playing the bad guy). Also featuring Halle Berry’s breasts.

Yojimbo (1961)

“Although swords strike and blood flows, Yojimbo mostly registers as a comedy.”
