Watch Untraceable For Free

I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

Powerful

The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

The plot is original and in certain ways prescient for being a 2008 movie. Apart from the gross scenes, the only thing I didn't like was the stupid mistakes that the FBI agents apparently made. Maybe erring is human, but that didn't make that much sense.

Yea, I know it's 2018 and am watching this 10 years later. Watching one agent after another get snatched by the sociopathic psycho is like watching those horror films where you are yelling at the screen "don't go in there!" or "get out now!" ***Spoiler*** I mean, from the first FBI agent who gets snagged via an online date to the second FBI agent who KNOWS she is being stalked by the killer, is on a rainy bridge at night and STILL! gets into her pitch black car and whaddya know, the psycho is waiting in the back seat with his taser gun. Baaaad, just baaaad scripting.

Lonely female widowed feisty ageing FBI internet detective tracks an elusive killer who stages online murders for the titillation of the irresponsible masses. But as she stares into the abyss, the abyss stares into her ...I wish the last bit of that description were true, but this story is nuance free. A cynical, smug celebration of an elite appointed to control the great unwashed. A cop has a hunch, a supposition, draws an inference - send in the SWAT team! Smash down them doors! No sense of the truth that policing generates crime. Instead the concept is Silence Of The Lambs meets electronic media manipulation with CSI precision, and the characterisation is all wooden, with none of the self-reflective doubt that made Silence so great.Acting and pace are good, music standard. The daughter sub plot is pointless. At least the cast refrained from chanting USA! USA! before shooting the crap out of everyone in range.

A ferocious retelling of the old tale of voyeurism, supplemented by the behind-glass-partitions shots. It brought to my mind the memory of Hitchcock's (The Rear Window). A good casting is waiting for you there. Diane Lane was like enthusiastic .. The guy who played the serial killer gave the traditional flat affect imprinted on serial killers' faces in movies. His methods of killing seemed to me rather complying with the social roles of his victims, for example the anti-coagulant bleeding of the naturally cold-blooded pilot and the heat lamp burning of the announcer who brings secrets to light on TV. Actually voyeurism continues till the last moment as the chat room displays comments.. It's a good movie on the whole.
