good back-story, and good acting
This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.
I have been a Constant Reader since age 16. I love King. I love John Cusack. I love Sam Jackson. I hated this movie. I don't know how I missed this movie when it was first released, but I wish I had never watched it. Everything about it was just wrong. If you're a King fan, stay away from this one.
Cell is essentially a Stephen King book adaptation film, in which was not as it turned out to be. With a limited release, Cell did not adapt well to critics and fans and has been criticized as well as forgotten. Characters played by John Cusack, Samuel L. Jackson, and Isabelle Fuhrman search for family members while occasionally stopping off to meet and kill both creatures and unstable humans alike, their crew growing and diminishing in predictable waves of tragedy and triumph. Overall the film is almost studiously forgettable in the age of The Walking Dead. A complete lackluster zombie film which feels silly in the end.
In this film, the zombie apocalypse is initiated by a cell phone, turning people in cell phone zombies a slightly worse condition than their present state. Clay (John Cusack) is the victim of a dead cell phone battery and manages to survive. He is a graphic novelist, a skill set needed to rebuild the world. Traveling along with him is Tom, a Vietnam vet and Subway conductor.Since they are on the East Coast, Catalina Island is not an option. They plan on going to check on Clay's family, picking up and losing people along the way. From there they plan on going to Kashwak, Maine, because Stephen King is familiar with it.There is an ending, but you don't get the closure you are seeking.Guide: F-word. No sex or nudity.
Lousy acting, struggling plot, rambles on to a senseless end. Don't waste your time. Samuel L. Jackson must have needed a paycheck. Otherwise I cannot understand why he would waste his time and talent on this. This film is fitting the lackluster career of John Cusack who is still living off of Grosse Pointe Blank and other pre-21st century films.
