As pure entertainment, Phone Booth succeeds as well as any movie released in the past few years.

Joel Schumacher’s latest film is a thrilling, suspenseful 90 minutes... and it’s great entertainment.

Stationary in concept and at the same time manically unhinged and psychologically multilayered

Joel Schumacher's high-concept thriller is a prime example of what can go wrong when a promising idea is poorly executed.

'Enlace Mortal es un sólido thriller que representa una de las mejores opciones de escapismo que han llegado a las pantallas en lo que va del año. Verdaderamente recomendable.'
