The Terror Live

I saw this few days back. Was on my radar for a long time.

Well, we have seen much better movies with a bit similar theme, Phone Booth, A Wednesday, The Taking of Pelham 123, Speed, Man on a Ledge, Cellular, The Call, etc but this doesn't have that kinda shocking end.

Nonetheless it is a bearable thriller with enuff energy.

The budget is low n it is very evident by the effects n some of the scenes of the bridge collapsing are shown via television to hide the budget.

Statutory warning: avoid the Bollywood unofficial remake like plague.

A former news anchor turned radio host, tries to negotiate with a terrorist who is bombing the city.

This isn't a bad film. I enjoyed it but I didn't think it was as good I had hoped it would be. There is a effort to have the story make sense but still had a couple of holes. The actors played their parts well and there is a fairly consistent level of suspense.

Overall I liked it.

Well, this was fascinating! The film effectively demonstrates the power of the media - radio, in this instance. This was very realistic and suspenseful, and became more and more intriguing as it progressed. Some really good visuals as well, especially the awesome ending! Loved it!

I have been waiting for this movie for sometime now,and my expectations were high.They were almost satisfied.

This is another one of the movies that everything happens in a small room/location and the film rarely leaves out of that.

Still the suspense is enough to keep you going.

Yeong-hwa Yoon, played beautifully by Jung-woo Ha, is a radio producer demoted(in lack of a better word) from national news anchorman.During his early show in radio he receives a call from a man , that claims he will bomb a nearby bridge.When the bridge explodes and everyone understands there was no prank call the wheels get in motion and what follows is a nice thriller.

Whereas the above plot is good,I would call for some changes during the middle of the film where you might get slightly bored.But the end will definitely make up for it.I promise you that!

The acting is very good and made me feel it was all happening in reality.

You will see few CG generated animations but this movie needs no more.

An excellent film overall,and I rated this so high due to the ending which I loved.If you like this genre then definitely watch this.Even if you don't, watch it,and you might get surprised.

I definitely did not expect to like this as much as I do. It was an act of terrorism but it was also the result of many things. I really liked the nuances in morality in this one and how there was no "happy" ending.
