neutral · AI labelView post →I love seeing great actors in early roles. In the movie, THE HUNGER (1983, Tony Scott), actors Willem Dafoe and John Pankow play "Phone Booth Youths," essentially extras with lines. Both actors would reunite for starring roles in TO LIVE AND DIE IN LA two years later.

neutral · AI labelView post →Die Hard definitely the best Christmas movie!! 😁 Carry-On is interesting. Got a third through yesterday before having to go somewhere. From what I've seen so far though, I got a lot of "Phone Booth" vibes, if anyone remembers the 2002 flick by Schumacher with Colin Farrell! It's intense!!
neutral · AI labelView post →#LetterboxdFriday #LastFourWatched Opera, another terrifyingly good murder movie from Dario Argento. The Big Year, surprisingly fun movie about birding, chill vibe and good cast. Phone Booth was a very tense and original thriller. Bullets Over Broadway, clever twist as the mob guy gets too involved.
positive · AI labelView post →Tonight’s film: a movie that is 83% vibes. Willem Dafoe, in only his second role, plays ‘2nd Phone Booth Youth’.
neutral · AI labelView post →a fun thing about me is that I was so feral for Colin Farrell as a preteen that I had a PHONE BOOTH movie poster on my bedroom wall my American Outlaws dvd got a workout I even had one of the Daredevil movie foldout magazine posters of Bullseye
neutral · AI labelView post →Phone Booth. The entire movie takes place in a phone booth.
neutral · AI labelView post →also jesus you're telling me Bourne Identity came out the same year as Equilibrium, Changing Lanes, Phone Booth, Minority Report, Dog Soldiers, Blade II, Catch Me If You Can, AND The Sum of All Fears? why did ANYONE like this movie?

positive · AI labelView post →Let me tell you, if Larry Cohen had a problem with Michael Bay after asking the wrong questions about the movie Phone Booth, you know Bay isn't really a good filmmaker. And before Bay stans come at him, he wrote Phone Booth. The dude was a prolific screenwriter and director.
neutral · AI labelView post →Payphones existed solely as a prop for the movie Phone Booth.
neutral · AI labelView post →Ang: So that is why Bill & Ted’s Excellent Adventure is one of my fave movies ever. Bill & Ted forever dude. So the Phone Booth ACTUALLY WORKS! it was a real time machine in the movie? Keanu: Yeah dude. You built it. The movies were real life saving the world. Ang: Let take the booth today.
neutral · AI labelView post →I love that I have high schoolers seeing a Larry Cohen scripted movie in 2003 and that’s not me straining to make the reference. Phone Booth was huge with my group then.

neutral · AI labelView post →Taking a moment to reflect on the fact that Phone Booth, a film that takes place almost entirely in a public phone booth, is 21 (nearly 22) years old.
neutral · AI labelView post →They couldn’t make the 2002 Joel Schumacher film Phone Booth starring Colin Farrell today because there’s no more frickin phone booths
neutral · AI labelView post →I'm not gonna write it but free horror movie idea: Locked in a runaway robot car during a blackout. PHONE BOOTH meets COSMOPOLIS. Or something.
neutral · AI labelView post →As a preteen who had a Colin Farrell PHONE BOOTH movie poster on my wall as a child this is a big moment for me
neutral · AI labelView post →now would be a perfect time to get on a remake of the movie Phone Booth (2002) but its in a self driving electric car this time
neutral · AI labelView post →oh and Phone Booth if only because i just googled "the movie where colin farrell is in a phone booth" and
neutral · AI labelView post →AND! AND! The only movie I could think of that he was in was PHONE BOOTH. I did not tell him I loved him in fucking Phone Booth 🤣

neutral · AI labelView post →Finally saw Iron Lung! (Thanks for that guy who put it on Youtube) And I LOVE IT! I carved for long time for a film like this. I don't know what's the exact genre it is, but, something like Saw, Phone Booth and Cube. That itch as been scratched. Thanks Markiplier!
positive · AI labelView post →‘Phone Booth’ (2002), PSP UMD, £1.50). An old fashioned b-movie style for sure, but it uses the tight location very well. #physicalmedia #sonypsp #pspumd #colinfarrell #joelschumacher
positive · AI labelView post →It’s ok. A film-shaped-thing. Die Hard and Phone Booth did it better.
negative · AI labelView post →It's Joel Schumacher's best movie. His second best? The other film he made w/ Colin ("Phone Booth").
positive · AI labelView post →I will always love that Larry Cohen wrote Phone Booth, a movie about a man who can’t get off the phone but can’t move, and Cellular, a movie about a man who can’t get off the phone and has to keep moving, and that they got made within two years of each other
neutral · AI labelView post →Next up: Phone Booth (2002) Colin Ferrell, Kiefer Sutherland, Katie Holmes with Joel Schumacher directing #Filmsky #moviesky 📽️ youtube.com/watch?v=UP9h...
neutral · AI labelView post →Wrong, actually! A lot of people guessed Phone Booth, but this is a different movie with only one phone booth scene.
neutral · AI labelView post →Tonight's movie was a classic. Phone Booth. Can not recommend it enough. Man, this is an all-time banger. Everything about it just work beautifully. And what a STELLAR performance by Colin Farrell. ❤️ My rating: 🌕🌕🌕🌕🌕
positive · AI labelView post →It’s a rare actor that can hold down a film which is essentially in one location and only them in it, but Colin nailed Phone Booth and I’ve had mad respect for his acting ever since.
positive · AI labelView post →If instant film cameras count: 12. I have at least once used: Fax Machine, Floppy Disk, Film Camera (Instant), Dialup Internet, Phone Booth, Cursive, Checkbook, Dictionary, VCR, Postcard, Paper Map, Phone Book.
neutral · AI labelView post →17. Damien Chazelle. I've liked each movie of his less than the last. Actually underrated might be the movie he screenwrote, THE GRAND PIANO starring Elijah Wood. It's basically PHONE BOOTH but in a concert hall.
neutral · AI labelView post →Did you know Netflix made a surprisingly fun mashup of 'Die Hard 2' and 'Phone Booth'? "An airport security officer races to outsmart a mysterious traveler forcing him to let a dangerous item slip onto a #Christmas Eve flight." Carry-On (2024). #TheOtherChristmasMovies #FilmSky
neutral · AI labelView post →Phone Booth (2002) dir. Joel Schumacher #film 🎬 #cinematography One of my favourite films...
positive · AI labelView post →Have you read the original script of Yesterday? It could have been such a good movie. (And Phone Booth is great.)
neutral · AI labelView post →How Did This Get Made covered Cellular years ago. Larry Cohen wrote Phone Booth and Cellular's original draft. On the podcast, Ike Barinholtz joked that it all began with Beeper. It turns out that there is a movie called Beeper, but it isn't written by Cohen. www.imdb.com/title/tt0252...

neutral · AI labelView post →34. Phone Booth (2002 film) Pretty good thriller about Colin Farrell getting trapped in a phone booth by Venom Snake from Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Penis with a sniper rifle. Really makes the most out of a simple premise without overstaying its welcome
positive · AI labelView post →I really gotta question people who give a movie like Phone Booth 5 stars. Like, I'm deeply curious how their internal rating system works whenever I see something like that. Not even in a judgmental way, just like "how did you actually reach that conclusion?".
negative · AI labelView post →31.) Phone Booth Pretty good bottle movie! A lot of it was carried by Sutherland’s dulcet tones. It sparked a discussion as to whether this counts as a peril movie FOR MEN™️, but the jury is still out.
positive · AI labelView post →Why....why would you need to shoot for IMAX with a film that revolves around sitting still? Like, would you do this for MY DINNER WITH ANDRE? PHONE BOOTH? What is the benefit of the IMAX Experience (tm) to this story?
neutral · AI labelView post →Phone Booth is about as interesting as something I might film in my bathtub.
negative · AI labelView post →Carry-On (2024) A thriller that's a cross between Phone Booth and Die Hard which starts out decent but then slowly crumbles. What brought this film down, for me, was over use of voice over, caricature characters which were on the verge of being cartoonish and a scene
neutral · AI labelView post →I think I've just got the second favorite movie in my list and it's called "Phone Booth". Collin Farrell acting alongside Kiefer Sutherland's voice was such a great combo. Especially the voice 😳
positive · AI labelView post →Exactly! It still feels very...big? and threatening. Another film like this that comes to mind that does it well, too, is Phone Booth. I have to respect that. Just the talent to keep folks engrossed without leaving the 'room' (so to speak) is impressive as hell. -Steve

positive · AI labelView post →84/100 The Runner: I will always enjoy a real time movie, this wasn’t the best one I’ve seen, but it was still decent. Reminded me of both Phone Booth & Run Lola Run, whilst not being quite as good as either of them. Strangely interesting tour of London sights that sparked debates about her route!
neutral · AI labelView post →I'd wanna double feature it with Phone Booth (2002), it would be like a Grindhouse matinee, though which would be the B-movie?
