So-so thriller that is too intense for tweens.

Cellular, based on a story by Larry (Phone Booth) Cohen, is a mobile phone thriller starring Nokia - it's depressingly implausible

It's the classic Hitchcock 'wrong man' set-up, pulled off with wit, energy, and a healthy sense of the ridiculous.

It's mad, bad nonsense of the summer, popcorn variety, disposable but oh-so-much fun to endure, a roller coaster on a wobbly cinematic track.

Much like writer Larry Cohen's other telephone thriller, Cellular is an exuberantly silly, more than a bit over-the-top B-movie thriller told with far more flair than it probably deserves.

Apr 08, 2016Just an average thriller that tries something a little different but never anything great or memorable, A good cast but not greatly acted, Some good bits but the whole story is predictable and bland at times.Jamie C Super Reviewer

Jul 07, 2013Decent, and honestly way better than I thought it would be. Unfortunately, this movie has aged rapidly because of its reliance on then-modern technology that's completely outdated today. I personally wouldn't have picked Kim Bassinger for this movie (I just can't see her as an incredibly intelligent biology teacher lol), but at least the rest of the cast is good, though an inexplicably random combination of actors together (William H. Macy, Jason Statham, and Jessica Biel all in the same movie? What the hell?). Anyway, this movie starts off very intriguing and suspenseful, but really begins to drag halfway through. The ending is good and kind of satisfying, so that makes up for it to some extent.Stephen S Super Reviewer

May 19, 2013Though it's a rather formulaic thriller, Cellular is surprisingly intense and exciting. When Ryan Hewitt receives a random call on his cellphone from a woman who's been kidnapped, he takes it upon himself to save her and her family. Starring Chris Evans, Kim Basinger, Jason Statham, and William H. Macy, the cast is impressive and elevates the material. The writing is also rather good, and is able to keep this relatively simple plot engaging and full of intrigue. Additionally, the directing helps the film stay fast-paced and energetic. Entertaining and fun, Cellular is a solid action film.Dann M Super Reviewer
