Do yourself a favor watch the Japanese movie "One Missed Call 2003", if you don't like subtitles it is dubbed in English plus it's well worth a watch, as far as this movie goes its one call you won't regret missing. "One Missed Call" may very well hold over horror fans desperate for something even remotely near their beloved genre, however, gorehounds and true horror fans are likely to be disappointed. I can't really say much about the acting except that its sub par, Ed Burns is the only decent actor in the whole movie. I found myself bored most of the movie and again amused at the "scary" parts because of how weak it is. I always try to refrain from bashing any movie just because I understand that a lot of effort goes into making even the worst movie. Production design is generally effective however, the film's score generally is of the garden-variety horror type in which one can easily tell by the music when something bad is going to happen. Supporting plays include Meagan Good (too short of scene), Ray Wise and Azura Skye. Sossamon is competent as the bewildered victim, while Burns adds a certain depth to a fairly nondescript role. Jack Andrews (Edward Burns), whose sister died a mysterious death and who joins Beth in searching for answers. The central character is Beth (Shannyn Sossamon), a young student who witnesses more than one of her friend's grisly demises and who appears in line to be a victim despite the disbelief of local authorities (represented largely by Margaret Cho, in a non-comic role). I enjoy good movies but I can also appreciate certain bad movies that are good for passing time but ultimately this offers me one missed call too many.Īs you watch this you will notice a mixture of The Ring and Final Destination, both of the above films are clearly better. But in the end too many words came out of it.
I definitely didn't expect to be any good but once in a while everybody wants to see a movie on a long Saturday afternoon that they don't have to think or talk about ever again. The only time I was actually a bit creeped out was when I checked my phone and it said that I have One Missed Call. It's called a horror movie but I was laughing during most of it. Should we talk about this again?.This movie was horrible. Well at least I didn't spend $10 at the theaters.
