- Synopsis:
- College student Beth Raymond (Shannyn Sossamon) witnesses the gruesome deaths of two of her friends, just days apart, and realises a disturbing and terrifying connection between the victims; a chilling voicemail message of the sound of their own deaths, received a matter of days before they died. When Beth speaks out, the police think she's delusional - except for Detective Jack Andrews (Ed Burns), whose own sister was killed under strangely similar circumstances. Together, Jack and Beth work feverishly to unravel the mystery behind the ominous calls. As they get closer to the truth, Beth receives her own dreaded one missed call and the two face a race against time to her life.

Ok Horror Flik - One Missed Call review by CP Customer
This is an American version of a Japanese original which we saw last year and they have done a pretty good job with a few improvements and some changes that were not so good, (including the ending). Pretty entertaining but no need cover your eyes at any point.

The Ring Goes Mobile - One Missed Call review by CP Customer
Bland, generic MTV thriller which takes the best elements of The Ring and Final Destination and in 83 minutes makes a total hash of it.
The same special effects are utilised again and again, without any real purpose or style. Panic Room showed these good be an effective tool, but in the hands of this director the experience is lacking.

One missed opportunity - One Missed Call review by CP Customer
Not that I expected too much, but I was at least hoping for something on the same 'spooky' level as 'The Grudge' or 'The Ring' as it is based on an existing J-horror.
Unfortunately this film drastically failed. It has more of a 'I know what you did last summer' feel to it - very aimed at teenagers. The effects are poor and the story - though it has the potential to be quite interesting - fell apart like a piece of wet tissue.
