Notes

My quick rating - 4,4/10. Ok, I never read the book, so I won't butcher this due to not following it. I will say this movie was not very good. First, it screams rip off of "The Signal" (2007) and I am unsure if that movie had any relation to the Stephen King book either. Either way, the movie is about a signal through cell phones that drives everyone basically insane. ALthough in this movie, that insanity is very tame. The very good cast just doesn't seem invested into making this movie anything else but mediocre. And I am a huge fan of both Jackson and Cusack. In attempting to find the cause to get rid of the signal, so to speak, we are just subjected to an array of scenes, not really a story per se. It is too bad and I think the film makers knew it since they trat us to a really bad ending after all that which doesn't do anything to resolve, sum up, or entertain for that matter. I am pretty disappointed to say the least. Find the previous movie I alrady mentioned. Much mroe well rounded version of the exact same story.
