Watch One Missed Call For Free

Sorry, this movie sucks

True to its essence, the characters remain on the same line and manage to entertain the viewer, each highlighting their own distinctive qualities or touches.

Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.

The movie really just wants to entertain people.

I think I've found it. Ladies and gentleman, this is the worst American remake of a Japanese horror that I have had the misfortune of watching. Not once. Not twice. But three times. With each viewing, my own sanity has gradually subsided, slowly revealing my true "final boss" form. That's right, I've gone super saiyan. Who am I? What am I? Why am I? This is what happens when I witness a film about a group of friends listening to voice mails from the future depicting the last sentence they exclaim before mysteriously dying. With each death, the phone call is passed along until everyone in the entire universe receives their final one missed call. Miike's original is not a classic by any means, an experimental horror film conveying the idea of cellular devices gradually destroying humanity by relinquishing simple face-to-face communication. This remake is identical in plot, yet somehow a million times worse. The only redeemable feature is the ringtone. That is it! Every jump scare or creepy imagery is horrific disposable visual effects that slowly forced me to pop my eyeballs out, throw them into a blender, and attempt to reconstruct the liquified remains. Every actor was atrocious. Every line of dialogue was borderline deadly. Screw waterboarding, want a good method for torture? Just smack this film on. Bam! All the answers you seek will come pouring out in the first ten minutes. Every character was boring, particularly the blandest detective ever who can be persuaded with the flutter of your eyelids. "We should split!", "that's not a good idea.", "but we will get more done?", "ok let's split!". The plot is pointless! Absolutely incomprehensibly stupid. Why these group of friends? Why is the ghost haunting them? Why does everyone have flip phones? Why is everyone standing around waiting to die!? The moral of the story is if you die from an asthma attack, you will become a spiteful spiritual entity that travels through mobile phones for no apparent reason. Quick! Pass me the inhaler now! Don't make me watch this again.

One Missed Call does not suffer from really poor acting or bad special effects. In fact, this movie has some really creepy visuals and a pretty cool premise. However, it suffers because the writing is awful. They treat the audience like a bunch of 5-year-olds and spell simple plot points out so we can understand what is going on. Then it moves along in a series of disjointed scenes while giving us no real emotional connection to the characters - so we really don't care when they're killed off.

Derivative to Say the Least. This Hodgepodge of Better Films can Only be Recommended for Horror Movie Completest.Jump Scares to the Extreme only make the Back Story, which is the Movie's Best Part, feel Cluttered and Cliché Driven. The sometimes Creepy Moments are also rendered as Throwaways because the thing just can't figure out what works and what doesn't.Child Abuse is woven into the Script and makes for some Interesting Commentary and if that Thread was Cultivated Completely and the Silly Stuff, like Exorcising a Cell Phone was Totally Discarded, it could have been a more than Standard J-Horror Remake.It is Refreshing to See Cell-Phones get Stomped, Snapped in Half, Kicked, and Thrown in the Sewer. Hoorah.There remains among the Missteps enough to make it Worth a Watch with Low Expectations and Disregarding Knee-Jerk Reactions to Foreign Remakes and a Tolerance for Bad Directorial Decisions. There is Half a Good Story Contained.

One Missed call is my favorite horror movie! I don't know why I'm reading any bad reviews about this movie. I think the acting, directing, writing and music in the film was superb. People really need to watch this movie and not listen to bad reviews because they will not be disappointed it entertains you from beginning to end and even has a twist. One Missed Call is definitely is a movie not to be missed. Ed Burns and Shannon have great chemistry and that was the only thing that disappointed me was that they never got together. One Missed Call is one of those horror movies that stick with you, especially because everyone has a cell phone and gets One Missed Call at least once everyday! So please people give One a Missed Call a chance I think you will be glad you did.
