Phone Booth
Film · 2003
A slick New York publicist who picks up a ringing receiver in a phone booth is told that if he hangs up, he'll be killed... and the little red light from a laser rifle sight is proof that the caller isn't kidding.
The sides of Phone Booth

Phone Booth is good for you if…
- you like a call where hanging up means dying.
- you want a thriller that lasts barely eighty minutes.
- you like Colin Farrell sweating out his lies in one place.
Phone Booth is bad for you if…
- you want movement, not one man in one booth.
- you need the sniper's plan to hold up.
