An agent of the witness protection program "erases" people so they can hide while awaiting their court testimony, but one proceeding has powerful interests.
An adequate-enough movie for its era.

Netforce, a United States federal agency, tracks major hacking activities on the internet that point toward major criminal activities.
Definitely a TV-movie. Mediocre, and only moderately interesting. Definitely missing key elements from the also-boring book.
This was inspired by Net Force - (1998 book), by Tom Clancy
TODO - Watch the special features, there's a lot.

A cop's early investigation into a police fund theft has him killed, leaving his framed hostage-negotiator partner to use the only tool he has available to find the real killer.
A really great movie with a unique topic. Recommended.

A woman is pulled back into a life of crime, only to learn that what she helped steal has other interested parties.
A mediocre movie which just feels off and awkward. Definitely not recommended.
Olga Kurylenko is either an absolutely awful actor, or playing an absolutely awful character, or maybe both. Probably both.
 A handshake as secret as this movie's entertainment value |

A couple play underground documentarians for a cult.
Slow and boring. I couldn't get through it.

A military man is enlisted into a mission to save Chicago United States from a terror attack.
A fantastic, emotional, movie. This has all the elements of quality which make a movie truly great.
I'm surprised I took next to no notes. There really isn't any actual "substance" to this film, in the sense that there are few references to people, places, or things. It's all one contained package that is surprisingly easy to lose time with.

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.
Partially playing off of the Swordfish (password).

Two friends go on vacation, with one of them seriously ill and possibly dying, but a new illness progresses.
How do I describe this without spoiling it? I know a lot of people don't like found-footage movies, but this one is quite good as it actually shows everything.

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) (1995). Overall it's fair, but not that great and absolutely not worth a second watch.

There is a blackout and shit goes sideways.
It's not bad, but I can see why people would give this 5/10. It's a fair movie. It's not compelling in the least, with characters I never really felt attached to. Maybe following multiple people worsens it.. cutting between them is jarring for me.
