A journalist hiding out from a paedophile ring she exposed changes her number and begins receiving disturbing calls that seem to affect her young neice. Phone is basically Ringu with a mobile, and that's all you really need to know. It lifts elements directly from that film, Ju O... read more
This is an outstanding Film. As with all Asia Horror US writers have a lot to learn from our fellow film makers in the west. No doubt someone will copy this korean made film that falls along with Ju-On and The Ring. Intense thriller is more like it, but ending gets a little creep... read more
Possibly the best part of this film was the last 10 minutes.
It?s a watchable story which was not as predicatble as I had anticipated, but a little drawn out.
Although the beginning seemed cluttered and the two story branches didn't seem to fit together properly, it all makes sense at the end. Also features one of the most visually interesting corpse discovery scenes I've seen in a long time.
An effective, though somewhat derivative, Korean thriller. The scares slow down a little for a significant portion of the middle in order to communicate the plot, which is an interesting decision - the movie feels very complete as a result. Phone is a surprisingly coherent produc... read more
A by the numbers Korean horror that offers nothing new to those who are well versed in Eastern horrors. Good for a few frights, and an incredible performance from a very young actress.
not to be confused with one missed call..but again, frights delivered thru a cellphone and a little girl..effective..and understandable by film's end

South Korean horror at its finest. Don't be put off by the now-cliched cell phone curse of death theme, the acting raises this one to the highest levels.
It doesn't add a huge amount to the genre. But, on the other hand, the little girl is good. I mean, she's amazingly good. Usually child actors wind up shielded from the process, filmed away from the plot for scenes at all out of character for a normal person of their age, and gen... read more
Apesar de alongar-se demais (chegando a incluir uma subtrama totalmente dispensável), o filme reserva boas surpresas e conta com a ótima atuação da pequena Seo-woo Eun.
While there are no punches pulled when it comes to the bloody horror, Phone rings truest in its nerve-tingling suspense. Full Review
as close a knockoff to Ringu that I've seen to date Full Review
Asian horror can't go on much longer adhering to such standard rules, but for now it's frightening and effective. Full Review
[It] may be a rather unmemorable addition to Asian horror, but you'll be far too spooked to hang up before it's over. Full Review
