Fatal Call

I actually made an account just for this movie. I watched the whole thing because i couldn't believe how awful it was. Lets get to it. Pros: I have it a two because it had a good plot.Cons: Was full of 'come on, seriously' from start to finish(about every scene).That pretty much wraps it up. On top of some amateur acting. It was like a low budget movie that looked on the high budget side. A waste. Terrible.Someone should be ashamed of themselves.I was hoping it would get better but it just got worse. A lot of unrealistic things happened here.If you haven't seen it yet and watch it anyway, just remember, I told you so!

Don't know why this has such a low rating but I thought it was very good! The writing, directing, acting, camera work, and music were top notch. And I did not have a problem with the nonlinear nature of the film. In fact I like films like that. Most of Christopher Nolan's films are nonlinear. I enjoyed the production design and thought the setup and execution of the story was well-done. There were parts that were like other, similar films but I didn't find it distracting. My only real complaint is that it was a very low-budget film that was trying to be like a slick Hollywood production. This worked sometimes but not always. Other than that, I really enjoyed it!

I admire anyone who managed to watch this all the way through. I am afraid I had to give up for only the second time, it was just to painful to watch. I am sure I have something better to do with my time, like watching some paint dry.

I agree with the previous reviewer that everything was out of sync. The music, the eye movements, body movements, there were pauses whilst the actors tried to remember their lines.

The producer should be demoted to tea boy, or perhaps he was on work experience, in which case he should cease to continue having any thought of becoming one.

I would struggle to recall a film with such appalling acting, cringe worthy is a term that springs to mind.

Seriously do not waste you time.

With its plot line this could have been an acceptable film, but since the director (who wore many hats in this) chose to (a) direct this in a non-linear, highly confusing style, jumping around so much it was hard to know just where we were and (b) chose every tried and true setup that of course everyone sees coming from afar. Add to that the contrived scenes and of course the obligatory abandoned factory where the rent is cheap. Aside from that, the acting was acceptable and the camera work okay; it's simply that there were no surprises; none at all, and the lead character, while likable and charismatic, was played in such a way that it was impossible to believe he could be so stupid. In the end we have to blame the writer/director/editor and also barfly, Jack Snyder. One final word: through the opening titles we're flashed with scenes of an old-fashioned rotary phone being dialed. Since this was a modern-day film with today's cell phones and the closest thing there was to a fatal call was a fatal missed call, I really wonder where the rotary phone came into this at all.

Should have stopped watching this after the the first 10mins, but hey I plodded on after looking at the score.

The plot itself was OK, it was the hammy acting. I was beginning to think this was a black comedy gone wrong. But you couldn't do more wrong then what they had. I do hope they had a second job too fall back to

A disused factory that had steam, smoke still coming from one of its exhausts/chimney ? Spotted by another reviewer as well!

The old saying, "Too many cooks in the kitchen spoil the broth." Well, all the detectives spoil this film.

What I could have kicked myself for was not too watch the trailer beforehand. That would have had me jog on, damn I hate myself sometimes.

I see the score has come down a bit now due to intelligence rather than a pushed up score by film crew and friends - just my view :-)

There you have it a piggy review over a hammy film
