Ricky A @RT53733086 15h A low-brow thriller the qualifies as one of the stupidest movies I've ever seen. The script writing is terrible. Consider the following:. A girl is kidnapped and stuck in a trunk of a car. She manages a call to 911 which tells her to knock out a tail light. Fair enough. Then she is told to waive her arm out the hole to attract attention. This works. But when the kidnapper exits the freeway, this successful strategy is not continued. Instead, the girl is told the poor paint out the hole from a can in the trunk. And then a helicopter flying hundreds of feet in the air in a completely different location advises that he can't see a paint trail. Well duh. The girl in the trunk does a good job, but everyone else is just a caricature of the character they're supposed to be. Hopelessly overacted. It's nothing more than a B movie.

Halle berry did a great job as the operator the hopelessness she felt definitely can be felt as the viewer. And the actor who played Michael is seriously talented I genuinely believe he is a psycho in real life.

Love Halle Berry and the whole supporting cast. This one will have you on the edge of you seat See more CadeandKit R @CadeandKit Dec 3 Like a lot of high-concept thrillers, it moves fast enough that logic occasionally lags behind. The final act pushes into horror territory, complete with secret rooms, scalp collections, and a showdown that’s more cathartic than realistic. Kit calls it "a little twisted, but satisfyingly so." Cade’s take? "It’s not trying to be subtle. It’s a rollercoaster... you get on for the ride." For Cade, The Call nails what a rewatchable thriller should be: tight, inventive, grounded in just enough realism to feel like a nightmare you could stumble into. For Kit, it’s an example of how survival doesn’t always mean the woods or the elements. It can mean keeping your voice steady when everything else is falling apart. Both hosts agree: it’s an underrated gem that deserves more credit than it ever got.

I had to disinfect my tv with 2 different 99% germ killing sanitizers twice to kill 198% of the absolute filth that was just on it. It is constantly demonstrating how lazy writers are and how they will write any ridiculous thing that comes to mind to milk their screen time. The ending was lousy and lazy and left you so disappointed and angry. There were multiple times while watching this garbage that I wanted to throw my tv remote into the nearest wall. The plot twists were just people being stupid and overlooking easy solutions. There was no closure, no ending and no aftermath scene. Absolute garbage, 0/10 would not recommend to any living organism, writers should be charged with domestic terrorism and war crimes. See more Read all reviews
