Just when you think it's getting silly, Cellular serves up another tantalizing twist. In the time-honored tradition of Sorry, Wrong Number and Wait Until Dark, Kim Basinger is well-cast as a resourceful damsel-in-distress who thwarts her kidnappers by connecting with a n'er-do-well cell-phone user (Chris Evans, later seen in The Fantastic Four) who races against time to rescue her from afar. One good cop (William H. Macy) assembles clues to uncover conspiracy, while first-time writer Chris Morgan and pulp-movie master Larry Cohen (who conceived the plot, similar to his own Phone Booth screenplay) serve up a consistently satisfying string of high-tension surprises. Jason Statham continues to prove his rising-star status as the film's tenacious villain, and director David Ellis (Final Destination 2) takes advantage of his experience as a veteran stunt coordinator and second-unit director, making good use of locations in his native Santa Monica, and wringing credible suspense from a deliriously far-fetched premise. --Jeff Shannon

Customer Reviews for Cellular (New Line Platinum Series)

Fabulous Movie
I can't understand why this was not a highly featured film. It is a great action picture, with lots of humor. I've watched it 3 times now, and enjoy it just as much each time.Cellular (New Line Platinum Series)

Keep you on edge ALL the way to the end.
Both Chris anBasinger are good in this movie but Chris is very good-looking but they made Kim B. look worn out (why they had to make her look old?)
It is about a phone idea that is NEW Some reviewer are to harsh. Don't be too picky. What other movie that is similar to this one? One drawback is a few of the bad guys (Jason Satham) looks so similar to other guys which made me confused who and who at the first watching.Cellular (New Line Platinum Series)

Chris Evans - Good Man, Jason Statham - Bad Man!
A surprisingly good performance by Chris Evans (Ryan), who's the somewhat dorky, macho dude; against the convincingly evil, badman kidnapper, Jason Statham (Ethan). Kim Basinger plays Jessica Martin; a panicked, desperate, tortured, but determined and very ingenious wife of the hunted husband. She also comes up in the clutch as the movie progresses.

The action is fast and sometimes hilarious, with Evans doing the footwork (via his cell phone) in various impossible situations trying to help Basinger (especially when he needs to recharge his phone - a real doozy of a scene). William Macy is Detective Mooney, who eventually puts the pieces of the puzzle together while Ryan (Evans) traverses all over town creating mayhem all his own, while attempting to foil the kidnappers.

Good acting (and action) by Chris Evans, with able support from Basinger, Macy and Statham. A surprisingly entertaining movie.Cellular (New Line Platinum Series)

Never a dull moment.
Action thriller about a young man (played by Chris Evans) who answers a call on his mobile phone from a woman (played by Kim Basinger) who claims to have been kidnapped and needs his help and the lengths he goes to help her and stop the people who have kidnapped her and her family. A good action film featuring one of my favourite young actors Chris Evans in the lead as well as Brit-flick favourite Jason Statham as a menacing lead villain. A good way to spend 90 minutes or so with never a dull moment. Oh and one more thing: mobile phones feature heavily in this film (as you may have guessed from the film's title).Cellular (New Line Platinum Series)

If you like CORN and CHEESE, then feast your eyes!
This movie is just plain lame. Farfetched, cheesy, corny so-called action movie. Kind of a novel concept, but to make a kidnapping action suspense movie out of it just reeks of corn. And BTW, subtitles programmer, "lose" is not spelled "loose"!!!!!!Cellular (New Line Platinum Series)
