ChicRawIdol A brilliant film that helped define a genre

Connianatu How wonderful it is to see this fine actress carry a film and carry it so beautifully.

movieman_kev When Nicole (Monica Keena, best known for being in early seasons of HBO's "Entourage") dials a wrong number inadvertently and leaves a message. A killer calls her back using Caller I.D and sets in motion a series of events that seem to be culminating in the psycho going after her. Something even the detectives whom she convinced to help her may be powerless to stop.Monica seems to be doing the best with what she's been given, but the plot is just too clichéd for me to actually care for the movie that much. It didn't help that the character of Nicole was so insanely stupid that I couldn't care less if she lived or died. Add to this the fact that the movie,while only an hour and a half, seemed to drag on & a twist ending that adds insult to injury. All in all moderately well-acted but tedious movie with an awful ending.My Grade: D+

Dr Jacques COULARDEAU The film is very good till the very last two minutes. You will really be thrilled and frightened by this film but you will lose tracks of any rational meaning at the end. After a while you will not know who is who and where you stand and that will be definitely scary. A good thriller provide you do not try to understand the end. The punch line will punch you down flat on the ground. Some will tell you that end does not provide you with a solution to the crimes. True. But at the same time some others will say the solution is quite obvious. And that's where I say all rational logic is lost. No matter who the killer could be how could he or she be in four or five states away from the original place, and at the same time with the girl who would be seized by a serious case of delusion. Then what is the role of the FBI profiler all along and even after the last crime? She has been a witness of it all and yet she completely goofed it off and down. That does not work. To know the killer at the end is not important but all the possible solutions have to be possible not materially impossible.Dr Jacques COULARDEAU, University Paris 1 Pantheon Sorbonne, University Versailles Saint Quentin en Yvelines, CEGID

ofjeworstlust Just before the movie ends, the 'twist' really spoiled the fun. We've seen the killer that comes after the single white female. And the ones that phone them before entering the premises. It was quite good, except for the cop of which I first thought: is he the killer perhaps?No pretenses on the story or the acting, but man, I have to say again: what a bad twist - has been done so many times before. Many DVD's have alternate endings, it would have been so easy to add a satisfying one.The too sexy neighbor across the street, overacting all along. Loved the head actress by the way, and the scene where the cop pulls a gun in front of the opening elevator, and the old lady drops her groceries ;)

jmbwithcats Long Distance is about a distraught grad student, Nicole Freeman (Monica Keena from The Devil's Advocate and Dawson's Creek) working on her thesis. A no longer a teen not quite a woman type whose unfaithful boyfriend Chris left her and mother figures it's her fault. Who feels estranged from the rest of the world for reasons unknown, likely due to the breakup. When trying to call her mother, she accidentally misdials the number of a strange man named Joe (Kevin Chapman from The Boondock Saints, The Cider House Rules, Blow, "CSI: Crime Scene Investigation", Mystic River, 21 Grams, "24") Wow this guy has been in a lot of good stuff.When a policeman (Ivan Martin from.. umm.. well, nothing I recognized), anyway he arrive the next day to inform Nicole that a murder has occurred from the house of Joe, we begin to piece together a puzzle of terror as she tries to stop him from killing again, as he makes his way across the country to her doorstep.Conceptually though the movie is interesting.Winding right when you think it's going to go over the edge of mediocrity, a car climbing a twisting mountain at night, encased in fog. They bring in a profiler (Tamala Jones from Booty Call, Head of State, and One on One), to help catch the killer known only as "Joe". She talks of Freud, freedom, and the shadows we cast, a choice of words I found intriguing.The sound effects sounded like maybe they were chosen by Roger Waters in a small EMI studio, circa 1968.The music is really innovative and ambient. The kind of movie I'd own the soundtrack to but never the movie.The Achilles heal of Long Distance is the dialog, but when you figure it out it starts to make more sense why the film works so well conceptually, but not emotionally. Symbolically, but not literally.
