Untraceable is one of the latest movies to revolve around the
cyber-crime and stars Diane Lane as a Portland Oregon FBI agent who
works for the cyber-crime unit. In this modern thriller, she is
investigating a nefarious man (Joseph Cross) who tortures his
victims in front of a web cam which is televised across the
internet.
There is a catch though, the more hits his website
receives, the faster his victim will die. The torture scenes are
quite gruesome and although not too graphical in nature, the very
element is quite disturbing.
Even though the story is little clichéd
and over the top at times in relation to the “realism” of the film,
if you ignore some of the major plot holes, Untraceable is an
enjoyable ride from start to finish that will have you on the edge
of your seats, however for the more connoisseur, Untraceable is a
clichéd glimpse of society that although “could” happen would more
than unlikely not.
Featuring good video quality (16:9 widescreen)
with vibrant colours and sharp picture quality, there were only a
few moments with some screen noise, however for the majority of
title it was quite good. Match that with Dolby Digital 5.1 and you
have a good movie-like experience that if turned high will only draw
you into this film.
