Pros: Good interplay between Farrell, Whitaker, and Sutherland Cons: The ending is a detriment to this film
A lot of people have a fantasy about getting even with people who think of nothing but dollar signs, and care little about anyone or anything but themselves. One of those people has taken the fantasy to the level of deadly reality. He has been watching...
Pros: Suspense, character development, irony, deception, and Colin Farrell of course! Cons: The first ten minutes.
Expectations ran high for Phone Booth, and you know how dangerous that can be. Well, I'm more than glad to turn myself in as "just another fanatic" and award this movie the rating of perfection that it so rightly deserves. Call it bandwagon...
Pros: very suspenseful, was carried out decently, loved Forest Whitaker Cons: music was terrible, a little rushed, needed a sub-plot
Phone Booth is a film much like Speed, in which the meat of the movie takes place in one tight spot. For this one, we get to see Colin Farrell spend just about the entire time stuck in a phone booth in New York City. It doesn't sound ...
I'm not really what you would call a fan of Director Joel Schumacher; as his obsession with trying to be ultra hip has ruined a number of fantastic series, such as the last 2 Batman films. Yet still, when I first heard about Phone ...
Pros: Colin Farrell, suspense, the hookers Cons: preachy, cheesy
Stu Shepard (Colin Farrell) is a sleazy, New York publicist who lies to his clients and his press contacts using two cell phones. Because his wife (Radha Mitchell) checks his phone bills, Stu steps into a phone booth near Times Square everyday to call...
Pros: Farrell, script, clever editing, doesn't go on too long. Cons: i'm actually recommending a Joel Schumacher film.
Joel Schumacher is not a good filmmaker in most definitions of the word. Besides the wonderful, and under seen, Tigerland, he hasn't done much in the past ten years to earn him anything short of the scorn many cinephiles delight in heaping on...
Pros: Story line is an interesting premise. It was short. Cons: Too many holes in the logic of the story line for me.
"Nobody can resist a ringing phone," says the movie trailer for Phone Booth. Or something like that. Well, I can. Yes, I can walk by any ringing phone, even in my own house, and it doesn't bother me a single bit.
Pros: Colin Farrell Cons: Everything that isn't Colin Farrell
"Phone Booth" doesn't earn it.
It's a silly little suspense thriller, that doesn't earn the right to use the crumbling of society's morality as an incentive to let a sniper keep a shallow little man trapped in a phone booth for over an hour....
Pros: very well done. rich in character development. great performances. Cons: might have too much profanity for some.
Tired of chase scenes? Want to see a movie that is driven by dialogue instead of action sequences? You should check out Phone Booth. With tight direction by Joel Schumacher and an intense script by Larry Cohen, this movie will keep you sitting on...
Pros: Farrell in a star-making turn, abled by expert direction and scriptwork. Cons: A little unclear over the snipers actual motives.
Do not adjust your monitors, rub your eyeballs in disbelief, or throw yourself out of the nearest window out of sheer confusion. A Joel Schumacher film really has been awarded five stars. Top marks. As perfect a score as the Epinions rating system...
Pros: The movie did have one laugh involving a slut. Cons: Not only is it bad and boring, it's offensive.
The Die Hard series presents a case study in the degeneration of action films. The first Die Hard was probably the best action film of all time and the setting rarely ever changed from one building. The second was noticeably inferior and ...
Pros: Interesting premise. Cons: Stock characters, goes over the top towards the end.
Phone Booth is one film that has such an intriguing premise that you get drawn all the way in and don't think about logic or anything else for the duration of the movie. It wasn't until after I'd walked out of the theater and thought about what I'd just...
Pros: acting, pace, photography, suspense and thrills Cons: minor plot flaws
"Phone Booth" doesn't make a whole lot of sense, but it doesn't need to. Here we have a fast, energetic and suspenseful drama that utilizes the right techniques, all in a cool 80-something minutes. When you've got all this, you don't really need much...
Pros: Engaging story, Farrell's performance, thecamera work Cons: None come to mind
Anyone who doubts that people are as easily programmable as Pavlov’s pets need look no further Graham Bell’s little box. While most of us generally don’t start salivating at the sound of a ringing phone, few people (unless they work for a...
A single phone call can change a man s life, or possibly end it. Colin Farrell delivers a captivating, off-the-hook performance as Stu Shepard, a self...More at Buy.com Marketplaces
