Full Review | Original Score: 3/5 | Nov 17, 2011

[T]he honkingly stupid script is the kind that inspires Mystery Science Theater call-and-response.

| Original Score: 1/5 | May 1, 2008

Lane is an imaginative actress, every bit as good as Jodie Foster, and the film is clothed in a dark and chilly atmosphere that Hoblit constructs with some skill.

Full Review | Original Score: 3/5 | Feb 29, 2008

The problem with Hollywood films condemning the public appetite for torture is that they frequently pander to it, and this is a very lurid and unsavoury example.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Feb 29, 2008

Very unpleasant, though skilfully put together by director Gregory Hoblit and acted with beyond-the-call empathy by Ms Lane.

| Feb 29, 2008

This new variation on the theme isn't bad, in a gruesome and horrible way, and features a strong performance from Diane Lane as an FBI agent.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Feb 29, 2008

On the surface the film is a solid thriller, but there's more thought here than in the average serial killer flick.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Feb 29, 2008

Feels as if it's been patched together using 'auto-fill' screenwriting software.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Feb 28, 2008

You know something ain't kosher when a movie purporting to offer a critique of sadistic voyeurism opens with a hand-rubbing scene of kitten abuse.

| Original Score: 2/6 | Feb 28, 2008

A competent suspenser, helped by the always-dependable Diane Lane, but it suffers by following the modern thriller playbook to the letter.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Feb 28, 2008

Morally duplicitous torture porn: how else to describe Untraceable, a bleak, rain-washed horror thriller.

Full Review | Original Score: 2.5/5 | Jan 25, 2008

This joyless thriller runs the gamut from unconscionable through unwatchable to unendurable. It's also unfathomable that two talented people, Diane Lane and her director, Gregory Hoblit, got themselves involved in such an unpromising enterprise.

| Jan 25, 2008

Untraceable feels sleazy and gratuitous.

| Original Score: 1.5/4 | Jan 25, 2008

Untraceable demonstrates, once again, how unnecessary it is for audiences actually to understand technical jargon.

| Original Score: 2/4 | Jan 25, 2008

Untraceable really is disgraceable.

| Jan 25, 2008

As plain awful as Untraceable is, possibly the worst thing about it is that it pretends to mean something.

| Original Score: 0/4 | Jan 25, 2008

Untraceable isn't unwatchable, but it's a pretty miserable experience, from a director who knows better.

Full Review | Original Score: 1/4 | Jan 25, 2008

Untraceable often seems to go out of its way to tip off what's coming, so that it's hard to tell whether the film's writers are lazy, clumsy or just painfully obvious.

| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Jan 25, 2008

The movie chides us for being a sick voyeuristic society, hungry for the sight of violence. The purity of this moral stance is somewhat clouded by the movie's habit of staging sick violent acts.

| Original Score: 1/4 | Jan 25, 2008
