    But i'd watch it again to see if i get along with the plot

    It's very good and very tense

    A bit short, but any longer and it would be ruined

    Saw it at the cinema - didn't think a film about some bloke stuck in a booth would be any good, but i was pleasantry surprised by it

    Fantastic film! Joel Schumachers low budget efforts seem to be better than his big budgets recently...

    And Colin Farrell is just a superb actor no matter if you like him or not! He was great in Tigerland!

    Well. I didn't enjoy it at all. Spent the whole film waiting for Nina to appear [oohhh...24 reference. Sorry. He's Jack. Nothing else] but got annoyed with it. I didn't like the main actor, who's name evades me atm, but he irked me. And it was all, well, predicatable. Thing is, my friends who have seen me think the exact opposite.

    I think it was the 24 thing that just put me off the whole deal.

    Rented it on DVD. It was worth the £3. No more.

    Collin Farrell (sp) and he was great

    so many top actors turned down the role when they knew they would have to act evreything out in a phone box but he pulled it off so well.
