(1 - 29) of 29 OFCS Rating: 4% Rotten Page   1   "a... po-faced affair, pretending to be above all the sensationalism and depravity that it exploits, as though Hoblit and co. are somehow themselves immune from their killer's obsession with viewing figures."   Eye for Film   Anton Bitel 2/5 "In a genre that's already died a thousand mediocre movie deaths, Untraceable is not the last stab into its heart of darkness. Instead, it's the cinematic equivalent of a blueprint..."   PopMatters   Bill Gibron C "That's right, Hollywood has finally made a film centered on agony that even a grandmother could love."   eFilmCritic.com   Brian Orndorf 1.5/5 "a well-worn piece of formula produced with just enough professionalism to make it clear that those who made it should have known better"   Filmcritic.com   Chris Barsanti C+ "2008 gets its first installment of torture porn with a predictable thriller that blames a bloodthirsty public and big media for fostering an atmosphere of retribution violence."   ColeSmithey.com   Cole Smithey "Even if you take the film's moral lesson at face value, the overkill is discouraging, and not very instructive."   PopMatters   Cynthia Fuchs 1/5 "'Untraceable' is a thriller about computers that was probably written by one."   eFilmCritic.com   Dan Lybarger C "A serviceable, hypocritical thriller that would have been an utter bore-fest if not for Diane Lane."   EDGE Boston   David Foucher "Some day, a thought-out cyberkiller movie is bound to come along. Wait, for 'Untraceable'is not it."   ReelTalk Movie Reviews   Donald J. Levit 2/4 "A run-of-the-mill thriller that lacks the substance to be anything more than forgettable."   TheMovieBoy.com   Dustin Putman C+ "The movie equivalent of a clueless old person ranting about the Internet."   EricDSnider.com   Eric D. Snider C- "Untraceable's knee-jerk moralizing is reprehensible and stupid."   Film Blather   Eugene Novikov C- "Police procedural meets torture porn...sleazy and absurd rather than clever and surprising."   One Guy's Opinion   Frank Swietek 2/4 "Untraceable engenders a reaction that is one part fascination, one part disappointment, and two parts frustration."   ReelViews   James Berardinelli 2/4 " Life is too short for long-term exposure to relentless agony and distress, even in the guise of entertainment."   Palo Alto Weekly   Jeanne Aufmuth 2/4 "More concerned about coming up with graphic death scenes than anything else."   Mark Reviews Movies   Mark Dujsik C- "Boring, hypocritical, and didactic, Untraceable is an exercise in tut-tutting the audience for being curious about the very stuff the film traffics in."   Reel Times: Reflections on Cinema   Mark Pfeiffer "The original working title of this flick was Streaming Evil, which has precisely the right amount of built-in schlock for the tedious bit of horror exploitation this is."   Flick Filosopher   MaryAnn Johanson 1.5/5 "It's a tame version of Saw, aimed at middle-aged America, with the same lack of brains and appeal."   Bronsonfive   Michael Ferraro 2.5/4 "While Untraceable is an amiable enough way to kill two hours, it never gels into the kind of movie that would make me run out and start endorsing it to others."   Aisle Seat   Mike McGranaghan 1/4 "The villain may be Untraceable, but it's easy to pin down the influences of Gregory Hoblit's serial killer snoozer."   Slant Magazine   Nick Schager 2/5 "If I can forgive Lane for dating uber-douchebag Jon Bon Jovi, marrying Christopher Highlander 2 Lambert, and making Must Love Dogs, I can forgive her this."   Film Threat   Pete Vonder Haar 1/5 "It appears to have been designed to appeal only to those who will sit through even the most ploddingly paced and gruesomely icky police procedurals,have an unyielding fondness for Diane Lane and who have never once touched a computer in their lives"   eFilmCritic.com   Peter Sobczynski 2.5/5 "Even though this film strains to be another Silence of the Lambs (tormented heroine chases nasty killer), it's still oddly involving."   Shadows on the Wall   Rich Cline "Over and over again, Hoblit misses opportunities to make an engaging picture, instead giving us a merely pedestrian one."   Salon.com   Stephanie Zacharek 3/10 "Geeky, gruesome and repugnant."   SSG Syndicate   Susan Granger 4/10 "Just a bland crime movie that puts too much faith in an overbaked concept."   Antagony & Ecstasy   Tim Brayton "Click here to see review"   Wolf Entertainment Guide   William Wolf Read review   3BlackChicks Review   Kamal 'The Diva' Larsuel  (1 - 29) of 29 OFCS Rating: 4% Rotten Page   1
