Phone Booth

Le méchant était trop ridicule

Phone Booth

This is such a simple concept, but the execution is perfection for me. This movie feels like an edge of seat thriller experience the whole time. A man stuck in a phone booth with a sniper watching him and that’s basically the entire film, and yet it never gets boring. The tension is constant. You feel trapped with him the entire time. The movie wastes no time jumps straight into the story, and just keeps building. I really liked Colin Farrell here. The whole film depends on his performance, and he carries it. You can see the panic, guilt, and desperation slowly take over (that confession scene along with the expressions of guilt and shame was perfect). Kiefer Sutherland makes it so chilling without even being on screen much. His voice is terrifying. Overall, it’s fast, tight, and doesn’t waste a single moment. No unnecessary scenes just pure tension from start to finish.  A smart and effective thriller.

Phone Booth

Fun little thriller, Schumacher doing some rad stuff here. Very good performances here, but especially Sutherland whose voice is just the right amount of menacing.

This is why I don't do phone booths.
