Just watched the movie "Phone Booth"
Did anybody see it? What did you think?

I'm not usually a big fan of suspense films. But I like Kiefer Sutherland from "24", so I decided to rent it. Surprisingly good. For the last hour of the movie, Colin Farrell was in a phone booth.

Quite an intense movie. Now I can't sleep and am back posting on DU. :)

1. I thought it was crap
The killer guy playing god and all. And killing all those people for no reason.

2. Me too...
I just watched it tonight. It pulled me into the story and then fizz. It fell flat at the end.

5. The end was weird
I was wondering if Kiefer Sutherland would make an appearance.

3. Nice movie
I liked it after so many crap movies this year.

What I don't understand why it was delayed because of the sniper story last year. Or why Collateral Damage and Spiderman were delayed aswell. Piety? C'mon, that's comes from a country which has a president who has no problems to drop all kind of cluster bombs, thermobaric bombs, napalm/MK77 and kills enemies in a most barbaric way and cause lots of civilian casualities in Iraq. And the movie industry has no problems to release movies like We were soldiers which does glorify war and heroism. Sorry, but for me a true hero is the one who doesn't brag about the great deeds later.

6. The original trailer for Spiderman
the teaser showed Spiderman catching a helicopter in a web slung between the twin towers. If that was really in the movie that would be good reason to delay it while they edited it out.
