The Call (2013)

But with the clock ticking, Jordan soon realizes she must confront a killer from her past in order to save the girl's life and put an end to a serial killer's haunting rampage.

Halle Berry and Abigail Breslin were really good in my opinion. These roles fit them well. This movie was full of suspense and tension. I was on the edge of my seat the entire time. The people who are giving the bad reviews are way to critical over this film that was just meant to be a good thrill ride. I'm pretty sure the director didn't intend for this to become an oscar nominee so don't critique it like it is Argo or something. It doesn't deserve the criticism. I was thoroughly scared which was a pleasant surprise. The bad guy was awesome and creepy as hell. Everything about this movie was pretty good EXCEPT the ending. SPOILER: I really don't think they needed to end it with abigail and Halle getting revenge on the bad guy. I and many others probably would have loved the ending they led up to which was them going to a movie together that weekend like Halle promised her in the trunk of the car. I wanted to feel good at the end of the movie, not worse. HOPEFULLY they release an alternate ending of sorts. I would love to see it. I would buy the blu-ray just to watch the movie with the alternate ending.
