Cell (2016)
Directed by Tod
Williams this film based on the novel of the same name stars John
Cusak, Samuel L. Jackson, Isabelle Fuhrman and Stacy Keach. After a
strange electronic pulse turns people using mobile phones into rabid
monsters a father tries to get back to his estranged family.
I have fairly decent
expectations when a film is an adaptation of a Stephen King novel but
unfortunately this film falls well short of the expected level. While
there are a few interesting elements they are never capitalized on
and this is just a flaccid zombie film with far too many familiar
elements. Even the cast seem a little uninterested as they stumble
through this generic effort.
2/5
