Stumbling upon this 2024 movie titled "Cellphone" by random luck, I opted to sit down and watch it on account of it being a movie that I had never seen, nor actually heard about. And with it being a horror movie of sorts, of course I needed no persuasion to sit down and check out what director Luke Sommer and writer Rachel Sommer had to offer.
The storyline was somewhat of a swing and a miss. THere wasn't a whole lot of anything interesting happening, and sitting around watching the lives of Wynne (played by Whitney Rose Pynn) and Chris (played by Justin Malik Jackson) just didn't really make for an overly interesting narrative.
It was a relatively small cast ensemble in the movie, and I was only familiar with Malcolm McDowell. The acting performances in the movie were actually fair, despite the fact that the script was a dumpster fire.
I managed to suffer through a gutwretching 45 minutes of absolute boredom before I tossed the towel in the ring. This movie took forever to go nowhere. I am not kidding here, nothing happened in those long, oh so very long, 45 minutes that I suffered through. And believe you me, I am never returning to attempt finish watching "Cellphone".
This movie was a swing and a miss. And there wasn't an ounce of horror in it to be seen throughout the 45 minutes I endured. Well, unless you consider absolutely nothing happening on the screen as horror, if so, then you're in for quite a treat.
My rating of director Luke Sommer's 2024 movie "Cellphone" lands on a one out of ten stars.
