I've seen Swordfish many times. It is not good but it has charms. For me, Halle's short red dress scene in Hugh Jackman's trailer is better than either her lingerie scene or her topless scene (if you wanna see Halle's assets, Monster's Ball is a better bet). I like Don Cheadle's dogged

I think Monster's Ball should be seen as part of Lee Daniels' oeuvre, this would include the heavily lauded Precious and the little appreciated Shadowboxer. In fact, Precious actually deepens my appreciation of Halle's Academy Award performance. Daniels is an emerging master of both ensemble
