Untraceable (2008)
5/10
Nothing but a drawn out CSI episode
22 January 2008
Warning: Spoilers
This movie was good in the beginning, then slowly started to crumble toward the end. Diane's character was strong for awhile but slowly started to get weaker and weaker as the movie went on. She was overacting a few times in the movie (scene on the staircase when she realizes her friend is being killed, when she arrives at the scene and sees her dead friend and when she shows her badge in the camera at the end). Not that someone in that situation wouldn't have been emotional, but her acting wasn't believable, it was simply dramatic. I definitely think it could've be done better.

Also, this movie could've been summed up in a CSI episode, that was the quality of the movie in my opinion. Alright, maybe an episode that continued onto a 2nd episode. But still not movie worthy. It also reminded me of the Saw movie series and the movie Fear.com I know many movies are done over and over again, but it didn't seem too different from fear.com in my opinion. If you see it, I would shoot for matinée. I'm not AS bitter as I could be since I saw this for free :)
