Phone Booth plot

"No options. No lies. No fear. No deals. Just keep talking."

Stuart Shepard picks up a phone that rings in a pay phone. The person on the other end of the line tells him that if he hangs up he will shoot him. The little red light he sees aimed at him makes him take the threat rather seriously...

A good thriller that is filmed almost exclusively in one location. Stuart becomes the victim of a terrorist's moral game and has to confess a few things. Colin Farrell does more than decent and knows how to reinforce his character with his desperation, at times arrogance, but above all fear and panic.

The story is good and the tension is constantly kept high so that the viewer remains captivated. It's fine by Schumacher for not unnecessarily stretching the film or adding to a partial film that is too drawn out. The focus is and will remain on the telephone booth. A great film that leaves no one out. Very entertaining for an evening of entertainment!

Tight thriller. Phone Booth has a nice concept, and also well developed. The film only lasts 80 minutes and it certainly shouldn't have lasted longer, it's a good length to keep the tension high, and it has a nice pace. Farell plays pretty convincingly, and the rest of the cast does a great job as well (it's mainly a one-man show here). It is a pity that the motives of the caller were not further discussed, could have been a bit more. 3.5!
