    A horrifying thriller, smart and tightly told, and merciless.

    Even worse than its hypocrisy, gratuitous homophobia and cheap proselytizing, the movie is dull.

    An abhorrent cyberthriller starring a compelling Diane Lane.

    The latest, Untraceable, owes everything to “Lambs,” and to “Se7en,” and to all the “Lambs” and “Se7en” knockoffs made by directors less talented than Jonathan Demme and David Fincher. In addition to being dull, the Portland, Ore. -set Untraceable is a monster hypocrite, wagging its finger at the mass audience’s appetite for strictly regimented, “creative” torture scenarios.

    I thought the movie was way better than I thought it was going to be. I think the movie is really interesting to watch and it really goes at a good pace. The movie gets an 8 out of 10 because it was actually worth the $9.50 unlike some movies that are just better to wait for on DVD.… Expand

    I'd have to agree with the critics who gave this a 70 out of 100. I actually loved the sly social critique that this movie is as it brings about the topics of violence, TV, internet, torture-tainment. If you don't walk away with that part of your consciousness shooting off sparks then...let's just say, you're special. Overall, Diane Lane did an excellent job, the movie told a solid story, and though it may have a fast resolution, it's engaging through and through.… Expand

    This will appeal to fans of the Saw movies, as its basically an excuse to squirm at the ingenuity of the killers methods of executing his victims. One for the sadist in you, if that's your bag.… Expand
