Phone Booth (2002)

A complete waste of time. To start with, Colin Farrell is way too over-exposed, he’s a certifiable media whore these days. Secondly, none of it is all that well-deserved, he’s a mediocre actor at best, an export from Ireland that Hollywood is tripping and falling all over because he has an accent (see below). The premise of the film could have made for interesting drama: guy walks by a phone booth with a ringing phone and talks to complete stranger (stranger doesn’t have to be sociopath with bad attempt at creepy, psycho voice). As it is, it’s just really predictable, lame, boring.
