A surprisingly proficient thriller - even more proficient for the viewer who bails before the final scene.

Just when the movie has us in its grasp, the script falls to pieces and turns into a crass female-in-peril button-pusher.

This is as brain-dead as a movie can be and it assumes the audience will have the I.Q. of a rutabaga.

A simple but tense thriller told from the perspective of kidnap victim and 911-responder.

This film is a whole lot scarier than you think it's going to be.

This is a cleverly made, smartly written, totally satisfying armrest-gripper.

Crude as it is, The Call milks its jump scares and don't-go-down-to-the-basement tension for all they're worth. See it with a full house, if you absolutely must see it at all.

It's difficult to hold an audience pretty much alone for 70 minutes but [Halle Berry] does a much better job than the screenplay deserves.

Rides completely off the rails by the finale, and the film seems to completely embrace its stupidity...

If you're going to watch a movie in which two people talk on the phone for most of the film, it's not the worst thing in the world for one of the folks involved to have the face of Storm from the X-Men.

It seems at odds with itself thanks to a generous helping of tropes from two distinctly different genres: fast-paced action thriller and creepy serial killer horror.

Let's call The Call what it is: high quality trash that both diminishes and is redeemed by all the talents who have deigned to bring it to life.
