Swordfish

ActionAdventureCrimeThriller99 min

A gifted hacker on parole is pulled into a high-stakes operation when a smooth fixer offers him a way back to serious money. Stanley Jobson, played by Hugh Jackman, is told the job is simple: break into heavily protected government systems and help move a fortune hidden off the books. But the deeper he gets, the less clear the plan becomes. The crew around him is armed, secretive, and working to its own agenda, while federal agents close in from another side. As Stanley tries to figure out who is using him and what the money is really for, the heist turns into a race through shifting loyalties and mounting violence.
