post://108588098649016995/I downloaded phonebooth thinking it was photobooth. I expected "man who falls in love with a woman and her family after developing her pictures" with Robin Williams, instead I got a pompous ass stuck in a phone booth by a psycho with a high-powered rifle.
I'm thoroughly entertained right now, 40:00 in.
I can't see how it'll go on for 2 hours though.

- Actually "One Hour Photo" is the one w/ Robin Williams. It's a really weird movie. definitely not what you would expect... well it wasn't what I expected!
- Well it ended up being pretty good, he kept him in there the whole time and I didn't expect it to end as it did. All in all -- good acting, good premise (kind of like Seven with a twist), and it must have been a damn good pitch for them to actually make the movie. =]
This was quite disturbing, but it was done well.

- I just watched Phonebooth the other day. I had been curious about the movie, wondering how well they would be able to hold my interest, with such a limited set. But I thought it was very well done, and was impressed at the way they kept the tension throughout the movie. I'm not sure that it's good enough that I'd want to own it, but it was an enjoyable way to spend a couple of hours.
You should see One Hour Photo if you get a chance. It's an interesting movie. It's a little bizarre, but I thought it was done very well.
- I think it's on my Netflix list, will be coming eventually ;)
All in all I'd give it 4 out of 5, and that's saying a lot for a movie that takes place in a phone booth.
