 So Disturbing October 6, 2008
It seemed like an interesting concept for a movie but it was very disturbing. So intensely disturbing in fact that I had difficulties falling asleep after watching the movie!
Surprisingly, not half bad. September 23, 2008

I threw out my back this weekend so I was laying around in front of my TV looking for something to watch. Well I came across this movie on On Demand and decided to give it a try with my hopes held low. The acting is pretty mediocre, with some solid although sometimes questionable dialogue. The plot is a good one based in modern fears and actally has a good if not worrying message. The plot is really the high point of this movie and was the biggest surprise for me. It has some interesting torture moments for those of you who like movies like Saw and Hostel, but it focuses more on plot and less on action. The story moves at a pretty steady rate with some strange hiccups, but overall its pretty solid. Really not a bad movie, and sadly enough blows away most current horror movies. I''d say its worth a look if you're looking for something different.
 Unwatchable September 17, 2008
I love Diane Lane in Hollywoodland and Unfaithful but not in this! What I didn't like about Untraceable was it copied elements of Saw and Seven. It's like, don't screw with good movies, than it cheapens them and you get sick of watching the very movies they tried to copy. I also didn't like how they chose to use a kitten for the seriel killers first victim. What??!! Why couldn't they use a hooker or a bum, why an innocent kitten? This movie repulses me.

Unblameable September 10, 2008

In a firing squad, the victim is blindfolded and faces a line of sometimes a dozen men with guns. The men take aim and fire at the same time. A practice grew of informing the executioners that one of them had been given a blank cartridge. This prevented the possibility that the men would aim away by diffusing the subsequent guilt. Even the notion of a firing squad itself is meant to help assuage the weight of responsibility. After all, who's to say which man's bullet actually did the killing?
Populations that grow as fast as America's begin to lose that basic human value. Like any other resource, the more of us there are, the less we are worth. And the easier it is to act like the act of observing death and pain isn't the exact same as causing it. UNTRACEABLE takes the creepy, anonymous lecherousness of the internet, and both admonishes and capitalizes off of it.
Because there's a new website, you see, and if you go to it, you can watch something die. In fact, the more people who visit the website, the faster the death occurs. Don't worry. Sometimes it takes millions of visitors to kill the victim, and you're just one visitor. Just take a peek. And don't worry! The website is completely (refer to the movie title)!
It's possible the movie is arguing that things like Youtube have destroyed our last vestiges of shame. At best, it's pointing out that it's a back-handed blessing (but hey, even the depopulation caused by the Black Plague led to more competitve wages and, arguably, the Renaissance. Perhaps Youtube is just the ugly gate to a new and better world. Ha ha. I'm sorry. I'm off track.) In any case, although it might spur some interesting discussions, the movie only sustains interest when it exploits the very thing it's complaining about. Much like the dispassionate news reporters who "tsk" at tragedy and turn practiced sympathy on the viewers at home, UNTRACEABLE is mostly just distant and disingenuous.
The torture bits, of course, those have spunk and verve, to use a few poorly chosen adjectives, but the story itself doesn't have the same staying power as the topic matter. Even the presence of the lovely Diane Lane (I still can't believe she was in Judge Dredd) doesn't add much spirit to this by-the-numbers techno thriller. Watch it, if you must, for the sticky questions it might prompt, but don't expect to be engrossed anymore than you would by a grisly highway accident.
