An excellent, though generally-forgettable, bubblegum movie.

After meeting people trying to make it big in Hollywood movies, a criminal weans himself off of his old life to try it for himself.
Maybe it's because I saw it "back in the day", but even after re-watching it I still really like it.

based on Get Shorty - (1990 book), by Elmore Leonard

A recently-ex-con world-renown hacker is swept into the well-planned efforts to fund long-term anti-terrorist terrorism.
I-like-hyphens.
Ignoring the Hollywood-hacker bullshit, it's a good movie, particularly because so few, at least at its release, would be so A-class and yet have this particular topic. It helps shape the understanding of the passion behind Lawful Evil.
- Not related to the fish Swordfish.

Partially playing off of the Swordfish (password).

A group of friends gets in deep and bumbles into crime to settle things.
Reminds me a lot of Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels - (1998 movie) crossed with The Usual Suspects - (1995 movie). Overall it's fair, but not that great and absolutely not worth a second watch.
