Maidexpl Entertaining from beginning to end, it maintains the spirit of the franchise while establishing it's own seal with a fun cast

Tyreece Hulme One of the best movies of the year! Incredible from the beginning to the end.

Abegail Noëlle While it is a pity that the story wasn't told with more visual finesse, this is trivial compared to our real-world problems. It takes a good movie to put that into perspective.

Lela The tone of this movie is interesting -- the stakes are both dramatic and high, but it's balanced with a lot of fun, tongue and cheek dialogue.

themizzz Movie was good not scary as people say but i love this girl i mean what a girl man

David Arnold Mary, a young woman going through a divorce, moves into a new apartment and is on the road to piece together her new life of being single. One day, when a woman calls asking for someone named Bobby, Mary simply informs her that she has the wrong number, but as the number of calls begin to escalate, they evolve into something more sinister causing Mary to become fearful that someone may be stalking her. Determined to find out who the mysterious caller is, Mary starts to look into who the previous apartment's occupants were but nothing can prepare her for what is really happening and who the calls are coming from.The Caller is another one of those "work it out for yourself" types of films because the way the story evolves as the movie goes on, you literally do have to work it out for yourself as the plot really gives you nothing as to why things are happening. It makes no sense whatsoever and while the story is pretty interesting and is a novel idea, it just tries to be far too clever and ends up failing.Aside from the story trying to be too clever, one of the other aspects of the movie that didn't make sense was the amount of information Mary gave to this mysterious, unknown caller. I don't care what anyone says, NO ONE would give out the information Mary gave out to someone they don't know on the other end of a phone.Also, the calls pass the line into harassment and threatening behaviour so 1) why wouldn't you look into changing your phone number, and 2) why wouldn't you inform the police? Of course, none of these happen in the film. Honestly, I really do have to say that the vast majority of this movie just did not make any sense, and the only things that make it watchable are the tension that some scenes create, the attempts for an original story, and the decent cast members.Other than that, The Caller is really just another mediocre thriller that fills an hour and a half when there's nothing else to do.

bowmanblue I had very little expectations from this film. It didn't look like it had much of a budget and no actors that I'd heard of (okay, so I sort of recognised the main woman from Twilight, but that was about it). However, in this case, less is slightly more (or at least slightly more than the average dross that infests modern horror films).I wouldn't call The Caller a horror, more of a supernatural thriller. It's about a single woman (aren't they all?) who gets some mysterious phone calls. Nothing too out of the ordinary, but it presents a pretty creepy premise which finds her trapped in a spiralling cycle of torture and paranoia from a very nasty supernatural adversary.The Caller is a 'slow burner.' This is why it's probably not for everyone. Nothing too out of the ordinary happens in the first half and I can see a lot of people giving up before it really gets going. However, the second act cranks it up a gear and the torment really begins. There are no major scares or gore to speak of; it's more a case of inescapable mental torture.If you can put up with your films a little slower than normal and without any action, effects or gore then give it a go - all performances better than your average horror/supernatural flick and a slightly different premise which really works.http://thewrongtreemoviereviews.blogspot.co.uk/

Astraether I've watched a lot of crappy horror movies on Netflix, so when I run into an actual good one, it's a refreshing treat! I didn't expect a whole lot out of this flick -- I assumed it would be like so many others I've watched: sub-par acting, a predictable plot, the ubiquitous jump scenes. Instead, I got pretty much the exact opposite: a cool premise with not only supernatural elements, but a little time-manipulation as well; believable, sympathetic characters, and a fresh take on the usual horror fare.I thought the lead actress, Rachelle Lefevre, did an excellent job conveying the right mix of toughness and vulnerability, given her situation, and it was nice to see Stephen Moyer NOT being a vampire. I even liked that the "villain" was a woman -- not something you see all that often in the genre. All in all, this movie was a very pleasant surprise, and for anyone out there getting bored with the cheezy horror available on Netflix, give this one a watch. I doubt you'll be disappointed!
