A dully paranoid thriller that is a bad imitation of Hitchcock. Its plot is full of implausibilities and it is also computer illiterate, which doesn't help, though Sandra Bullock's performance does, even if it is not enough to save the film.

Enjoyable film; moves along and some good twists. Sandra B does a good job, and Jeremy Northam makes a convincing villain.

Untraceable
- 22 Feb 2008
If the World Wide Web were an actor it would be declared box office poison.

Untraceable suffers from the... Read more
