THE CALL (2013)


Movies that are mainly based on one event can find it difficult to keep the momentum going when the point has already been made. Stretching the story with not needed information doesn't add to a deeper plot but weakens the strength of the storyline. When the majority of a movie is filmed in one location it can sometimes add to a predictable scenario which can easily create boredom because of the stretched out scene that doesn't change, making it hard for any thriller to thrill you. This movie still managed to break free from the monotony at certain points which rivalled many great thrillers. It did lose some ground with the explanation of the killer which didn't really go in much detail of how he became a serial killer except in the last fifteen minutes of the movie. Some unrealistic scenes took away from the legitimacy of the 911 daily happenings. This is still a watchable movie but maybe just for blu-ray night, not the big screen.
