Don't Hang Up

Don't Hang Up is a solid piece of filmmaking with strong performances - especially from Siri Black, who delivers a standout portrayal of Vicky. The film absolutely did what a horror movie is supposed to do: it scared me.

The sound design is excellent - sharp, immersive, and used in all the right moments to build unease and tension. It plays a big role in making the fear feel real, and it definitely got under my skin more than once. The ending felt a bit rushed, but overall, this is a horror film that delivered exactly what I wanted: a tense and scary ride. It may not reinvent the genre, but it knows exactly what it's doing - and it does it well in my opinion.

The story behind this movie was really weak. Every film has its share of nonsense, but usually, there's at least some underlying logic. In this one, however, you'd have to be a complete fool to go along with it. The plot is so poorly constructed that it makes the viewer feel outright stupid.

The characters and dialogue don't help either. The acting feels forced, and the script is filled with awkward lines that make it hard to take anything seriously. Instead of being entertaining, the movie just ends up feeling lazy and poorly thought out.

That said, if you're looking for something to laugh at with a friend and make fun of how ridiculous it is, it might be worth a watch. Otherwise, I wouldn't recommend it at all.

I don't get it how eva get back to home when she was sent to the hospital.

Next one is, the goal of the ghost is to see Justin but why do they chase over Eva instead of Vicky who was very disrespectful at the very beginning. To be honest, that movie is not good enough. Even after they have met with their son, they still attach to Eva. What is wrong with Eva? Really not worth to watch. Well, if anyone has a clear understanding, pls share with us. I think the one who should be punish is Vicky, I saw eva did nothing wrong with that family and she become a victim after all. The script is really bad.

"Don't hang up" is a great example of innovation that doesn't always work out. The FaceTime format creates for an intimate and helpless feel, but also a lot of drawbacks. First and foremost is the classical but also annoying horror-movie-feeling that the characters are making stupid choices all throughout. This is elevated knowing that there is a connection out of the house and therefore someone that is able to get help but doesn't. The little man sitting in the corner of the screen is supricingly not as disturbing as you might think in the start of the movie. The movie does achieve the scariness that is often the bedrock criteria for these movies, but a lot of it is lost in what I describe as a rushed and underplayed ending. To summarise, Alex Herron and his team has achieved a scary and innovating piece about an often overlooked historical event, sadly the same innovation seems to have crippled the movie in some central aspects. Exited to see more of this style and more innovation from Alex Herron.

While i can appreciate the idea in this movie, the execution is horrible. The whole point of this movie is to take viewers through a horror experience happening on facetime, though it just felt pointless. The dialogue feels forced, acting is underwhelming and the story is really bland. If this was a comedy/horror, i would have given it a pass, but this feels like it was made with serious intent. Everything that happens in this film is explained to you like a 5 year old and it makes you feel really stupid. The scariest thing about this movie, is that i payed to see it. If you want a corny bac classic horror movie, it wouldn't hurt you to watch it. Otherwise, just dont bother.
