Untraceable fuses Saw with The Net in a perverse yet moralistic story about a psychopath who broadcasts acts of torture over the internet--all to better reveal the twisted underbelly of the American public, who hasten the victims' deaths simply by looking at the website. FBI agent Jennifer Marsh (Diane Lane, her mature-sexy mojo tamped down but still simmering in the corners of her eyes and the nape of her neck) launches a cyberhunt for the killer, only to find herself and her team caught up in his murderous scheme. It's hard to make tapping on a keyboard and staring at a computer screen exciting, but Untraceable does its best by making Marsh and her cybercrimebusting partner (Colin Hanks, King Kong) rattle off cascades of jaunty techno-jargon and do impressive bits of long-distance surveillance. The movie aims for the audience that flocked to see Ashley Judd in thrillers like Kiss the Girls and Double Jeopardy, but it's hard to say if fans of Lane's romantic fare like Under the Tuscan Sun or Must Like Dogs will enjoy the queasy violence. Nonetheless, the cast--including Mary Beth Hurt (The World According to Garp) as Marsh's mother--does a solid job and the movie clips along at an aggressive pace, maintaining tension throughout. --Bret Fetzer

Rating: - Solid Critique, Pretty Good Film
It's undeniable that "Untraceable" is a criticism of America's attraction to torture-porn, both in the theatres and (slightly more repulsive) on the Internet.However, this movie has been accused of actually being torture-porn itself, and is more often than not compared to gore-fests such as the Saw series or the awful Eli Roth's Hostel movies.However, in simply watching this movie, viewers will realize that those specific criticisms are unfounded."Untraceable" walks a fine line, because it ...

Rating: - Reveals Workings of Computer Forensics Unit
Some rather grisly, elaborate murders are shown being committed on-line in this movie. People's deaths are rigged to progress according to how many people log on to view the carnage. Part of the killer's motive is to hold a mirror up to humankind - to show how base our curiosity can be - how our voyeuristic, prurient interest in other's suffering can have real consequences.
One suspects that this movie itself might be an example of pandering to our morbid fascinations - its storyline ... Read More
Rating: - Uneven Thriller
Untraceable is a thriller that is heavily influenced, for both good and bad, by the Saw film series.As in Saw, the killer uses ingenious and diabolical traps to kill his victims.The victims actually are given a chance to survive although remote.The twist here is that the killer is broadcasting his murders on the internet over a site called killwithme.com.The more visitors that log onto the site, the faster the person is killed.As an example, one victim is surrounded by dozens of heat lamps. ...

Rating:  - Horrible
This item did not play well; it played like a bootleg dvd. I had to ask the seller for a refund.She responded quickly, and I was refunded in a matter of days. That is the only up-side to this transaction!
Rating:  - Where's Hannibal?
One of the raves of this film was something along the lines of " 'Silence of the Lambs' for the internet generation".
PUH-LEASE.
The villain of this movie doesn't hold a candle to Hannibal.This guy would be an appetizer to him.
