Critics on Rotten Tomatoes
Top critics, in their words
It's hard to know what's scarier-the fact that Asia keeps producing these movies, or that Hollywood keeps on remaking them.
To redial applicable catchphrases, this garbled American remake of Takashi Miike's already staticky 2004 exercise in J-horror is a wrong number.
The direction is uninspired, acting is lifeless, and the script borders on the inept. A PG-13 rating means that it's short on shocks, too.
If you missed the first One Missed Call, made in Japan in 2004, you now can miss the American remake.
