Untraceable is prototype Internet conspiracy drivel, with a hackneyed plot years too late and a simple premise of good cops and innocents against sickos.

While certainly compelling in terms of drawing you into the story, Untraceable has a number of nagging narrative flaws.

If you aren't a fan of scary thrillers, you're going to want to give this one a wide berth. But if you're aching for your next dose of suspense drama adrenaline, Untraceable may just do the trick.

Previsível e desinteressante, tenta contornar a trama clichê com cenas que investem na violência gráfica, mas sem sucesso.

Untraceable will have steam for a little while and then it is just going to die down and become the $5.99 movie at Walmart.

...a generic, garden-variety thriller that's almost entirely lacking in genuine thrills or surprises...

Neither terrible nor memorable, Untraceable is the sort of movie that lives up to its name %u2013 within an hour of seeing it, memories of it will vanish without a trace.

The movie's run of the mill stuff - fairly entertaining but not particularly inventive - with the standard twists and turns. Yet another film featuring a cute but horrific serial killer fixated on a beautiful and intelligent female law officer.

Part of the problem with "Untraceable" is the identity of the killer behind the Web site is revealed way too early, thus taking most of the mystery out of the movie.

Creepy, suspenseful cyber-thriller about downloading death, hacker homicide, and a baby-faced computer geek wielding a mouse as a deadly weapon.

[T]he honkingly stupid script is the kind that inspires Mystery Science Theater call-and-response.
