If Halle Berry is in he cast, I really don't care who is there with her. Just seeing her for 94 minutes is enough.

Now, this film made it's budget back on opening weekend. The next weekend almost doubled that, and ever weekend after that it was more that double, sometimes triple. This is a good omen. When a film gets more money every week, the word of mouth is driving business, and we can expect a good thriller.

Seeing the action in a 911 call center was exciting and informative. It is no surprise that a mistake can be made in the heat of the moment. The hard part is that a simple mistake can have disastrous consequences.

Berry was outstanding as the 911 operator, and Abigail Breslin was magnificent at the abductee. She has come a long way from Little Miss Sunshine.

The film had you on the edge of your seat when it got going. It was innovative and the tension never let up. A bathroom break was impossible as you wouldn't dare miss a minute.

I am sure that there will be debate over the ending. As a fan of revenge films, I applauded it, but others may have reservations.
