One Missed Call
Alrighty well i went to the movies at Universal this weekend and i think im getting a little paranoid and impatient about the people in the theatre. Its like ive been taking steriods for years and the side effects only kick in while im watching a movie. Im just waiting for someone to talk or to be stupid to get mad at them. Its just that it happens so often its shocking when it doenst happen and at a movie like this i expected it to happen but oddly enough it didnt.
So have you ever seen those commercials that end with “Where you at?” Im sure you have i say that alot and well the movie revolves around Boost Mobile Phones!!! the “Where you at?” is simply a question to find out where you are so that they can kill you!!
Ok so the movie. Yep you guessed it, its a Japanese remake! We all know what that means, abusive parents and creepy little kids. The movie is about a phone call you get with a ring tone that aint yours and it goes to your voicemail and the voice mail is basically you dieing. It even gives you the time and date of your death. For most people it gave them a two day notice. I on the other hand have yet to receive a missed call. The thing about it is that if you die, it calls the next person from your contacts list. so if you are friends with someone that has Boost mobile have them delete your number!
all kidding aside, the movie sucked. It was not scary and i want to say that i half jumped twice adding up to just a single jump in a 90 minute horror movie. It wasnt even horror, its a japanese remake so it was more mystery/suspense bc every japansese horror movie has a soon to be victim that needs to find a troubled soul to save their own. Not scary and the CG was horrible, like worst that Matrix Reloaded where Neo Fights Mr. Smith after he meets with the Oracle. Thats how horrible it was. I think theres a scene about 1/3 into the credits i heard something happen as i left my seat all disappointed. Not to disappointed bc i wasnt expecting much, but you know what i mean.
ya so stay away not today disco lady. Dont even rent this one.
what a shitty way to kick off the new year at the movies, but from what ive seen/heard 2008 is gona be promising.
thanks
