Surfing the internet is a big part of anyone who love to find thing out movie show times, find a mate buy DVD etc. There are many nice things to do on the internet. But the internet has also a dark side to it there are killers, hackers, child molesters and other sick and twisted people. Untraceable center on Jennifer Marsh (Diane Lane) who gets caught in a very personal and deadly cat-and-mouse game with a serial killer who knows that people (being what they are - both curious and drawn to the dark side of things) will log onto an "untraceable" website where he conducts violent and painful murders live on the net. The more people who log on and enter the website, the quicker and more violently the victim dies. Suspenseful, intense and action oriented, "Untraceable" also has a relevant and accurate message about today's society.
When I saw the trailer for this film I thought this is going to be a good film the idea of the film look good and the actors in the film are name we know. So after seeing the film I was right on all counts this was one film that was very dark and twisted. The story of the film was very good it doest make you think twice about the internet. I like how they show the FBI catching people on the internet who are not what they say they are It's look real even so it a movie.
The story held my attention from the opening scenes until the final scene. I like how the film ended and how everyone was showed in the film, the film did not drag at all and it held my attention from start to finish. The acting was very good mostly by Diane Lane who is a vetran actor and her co worker Colin Hanks who work good together and made the film believable. The technical side of the film was good it make you think who you give you personal information to and what they do with it.
The ending of the film was pretty good it kind of had a typical ending like most film of this type but you can overlook it because of everything else in the film. Once you seen the film do not give away who is the villain and any key plot points of the film it will ruin the film for them. Overall This week it kind of crowed in the movie theater and couple of the great films from this and last year is still in the theaters. So please don't forget this film this is a great thriller that anyone who like thriller will like so check it out today.
