Watch The Call For Free

Wonderful Movie

Admirable film.

Pretty good movie overall. First half was nothing special but it got better as it went along.

I am only giving this movie a 1 for the great cast, though I can't imagine what any of them were thinking. This movie was horrible

When a veteran 911 operator takes a life-altering call from a teenage girl who has just been abducted, she realizes that she must confront a killer from her past in order to save the girl's life. The Call benefits from very good work from both Halle Berry and Abigail Breslin plus Michael Eklund was great as the abductor and despite some flaws the film holds quite well although the ending did had somewhat a cool justice factor to it was also a bit to much as well i think. But definitely better than some other movies that Berry has starred on. (7.5/10)

PROS: The best attribute that the movie has was it's ability to have amazing actors play difficult roles. In many horrors you get to see peoples true emotions when they are about to die, but you never get a zoomed in looked on what they look like; only a brief overview. THE CALL really dives into and analyzes the rawness of these emotions, and uses them as a platform to propel the other parts of the film, such as the build up of tension. The actors were able to showcase this quality in a way that I would say most others couldn't. Which was helped a lot, because the build up of tension relied heavily on the connections and emotions made previous in the film. These connections were clear and provocative.CONS: A mistake that could so vividly be seen was the amount of plot holes in the story. There were a bunch of times where I asked how or why that could even happen, and that frustrated me because it couldn't happen. The movie itself was very thrilling, but there was tons of things that left big question marks in my head after the movie ended. Oh, I also want there to be a sequel!www.chorror.com

What a narcissist the key role is in this movie. It's all about me. The screw up and redemption are both reasons she should have been fired from the job and add to this the chumminess of the staff that became a filler for the show. The plot was good, the twists were entertaining, the action was okay. It's not just that we find it hard to believe the dispatcher could figure out where the perp was and not share the information with the cops already looking for the girl (abducted, not kidnapped – stop Hollywood from changing our lexicon. At the time the lady was taken there was no known intent that she would be harmed and kidnap has typically been when a person is held for ransom. Ask yourself, why would aliens abduct and not kidnap?) The movie is about redemption. The camera loves to focus on her bi, doe eyes and show the emotions but as a 9-1-1 dispatcher, she screws up many times. And in what job would the supervisor keep this emotionally-involved person over another shift while the manhunt continues? They would have give her office duty because her emotions were getting in the way of doing her job The best acting was done by the extras, like the poor guy who actually followed the bad guy and the gas station attendant. She is not a good actor, name a movie where she was pivotal. Go ahead, I'll wait.

The Call is an intriguing film about 911 operator Jordan Turner (Hally Berry) who takes a call from teenager Casey Welson (Abigail Breslin), kidnapped by a madman.This intensity of the 911 call between Jordan and the distressed Casey adds to the suspense and keeps the plot a fast-paced thriller - all leading to the creepy intentions of the antagonist and the semi-unpredictable climax.The film also takes an in-depth and exciting look at survival and judgment calls. The acting was pretty good and the direction of the flick is straight-forward and to-the-point, grabbing your attention right away and keeping out all the boring and unnecessary fillers. A pretty good movie for a Saturday night.Grade B
