5 just for the satisfying fact of seeing millennial assholes getting what they deserved :p

I actually enjoy seeing Brady and Sam being punished (Not that I'#39;m a psycho LOL) . It'#39;s quite relatable to the new gen nowadays, lotsa people pranking people (strangers or friends), but not knowing where the boundaries are. Lots of them do it just for likes (obviously), and people are expected to be able to take a joke even when it'#39;s gone too far. In a place like US, where you are allowed to carry guns, sometimes I do wonder what will happen if a prank went horribly wrong. Oh well I digress, as for this movie, I do enjoy the plot of how they had a taste of their own medicine. Overall, it'#39;s not too bad~~

Storyline kept me interested and I was able to overlook the bad acting for a pretty decent movie. Ending felt a little average but overall I enjoyed it.

The recent batch of '#34;horrorish'#34; VOD releases I checked out were all quite lackluster. In a way this one is too but it was at least for the most part entertaining to watch. [spoiler]Still lots of dumb decisions, predictable events (couldn'#39;t the mask be more obviously different(?)), questionable acting and an antagonist who doesn'#39;t seem to have a lot of logic in his revenge.[/spoiler]

A gripping psychological thriller that refuses to let its audience off the hook, Don't Hang Up delivers tension, intrigue, and a chilling cautionary tale about the dangers of digital recklessness. Directed by Damien Macé and Alexis Wajsbrot, this film masterfully blends suspense with modern horror elements, creating an edge-of-your-seat experience that keeps viewers engaged from start to finish. Gregg Sulkin and Garrett Clayton lead the cast with compelling performances, capturing the emotional descent of their characters as a seemingly harmless night of prank calls spirals into a terrifying game of survival. The cinematography is sleek and immersive, utilizing claustrophobic framing and eerie lighting to intensify the film's haunting atmosphere. What sets Don't Hang Up apart is its relentless pacing and well-executed twists. It expertly builds psychological pressure, ensuring that every moment carries weight and consequence. The film's climactic reveal delivers a powerful gut-punch, leaving audiences with lingering unease and plenty to ponder. Overall, Don't Hang Up is a thrilling, well-crafted horror experience that successfully blends suspense and social commentary. A must-watch for fans of tension-fueled psychological thrillers.

is predictable... it's good revenge... several plot holes...

SLOW TO BEGIN WITH, THE 2 DOUCHBAGS WE'#39;RE ANNOYING THE HELLA OUT OF ME, JUST WANTED TO PUNCH THEM BOTH IN THE FACE. THINK IT'#39;S FUNNY DO THEY AND WHAT HAPPENED TO JUSTIFY IT ALL WAS DISGUSTING, I WANTED TO KICK THE SH... OUT OF THEM EVEN MORE. GLAD WHAT HAPPENED HAPPENED THAT'#39;S WHERE MY 5 COMES FROM. THEY GOT WHAT THEY DESERVED, ENDING WAS A TAD STANDARD AND PREDICTABLE BUT AM NOT BOTHERED AS LONG AS THEY GOT GOT. TO BE HONEST I PREFER JOY RIDES AS A MOVIE OF THESE SORTS, JUST SUPERIOR MOVIE'#39;S ALL ROUND, PLUS I LIKE THE ACTORS A LOT MORE IN THOSE MOVIE'#39;S.

Brilliant movie slow beginning but builds up to be extremely suspenseful and puts you right on the edge of your seat 9\10.

Held my interest for around thirty minutes, but I was tempted to hang up on the film soon after. The tension paled, the story grew annoying, and the end (while okay) was a little implausible.

I love it. I don'#39;t normally watch horror films, but I really thought this one was very good.

The story itself is quite enticing but unfortunately there'#39;s a lot of plot holes and irregularities on how and why stuff happens. Mostly uses bad horror movie cliches which get more boring movie after movie. Also, the actors were not that convincing…

Could have done without that ending bit. Wasn'#39;t his whole reason of targeting the pranksters because his family was destroyed by them and not just because they'#39;re actually pranksters? the ending just turns him into some serial killer of pranksters and their loved ones. Makes no sense, maybe they'#39;re hoping for a sequel.... where he just takes out his anger on anyone resembling the original dudes.

Truly terrible. You'll probably want to turn off during the first ten minutes of hugely irritating characters setting up the plot. Do it. Don't get suckered in (like I did) to watch the rest. You'll regret it and never get that time back. Into my list of worst films I've seen it goes.

I don'#39;t understand the low reviews. It was well written, good curves, and twists. I would say this is horror-lite more thriller, but good. Ill rewatch this again someday. I thought Brady was related to Zack Efron. Those two look very similar.

I really don'#39;t understand these low ratings. Great horror movie with twists and turns, keeps you on the edge of your seat and even when you think you now know what is happening, the story turns again. Thoroughly enjoyed this.

The movie is interesting, but...Where is the neighbors?

jesus fucking christ that was really really bad

Sure, it's dumb, and it's predictable, but it's those things in the sort of way that your high-tolerance-horror-fans can still put up with. I'll never re-watch it though. _Final rating:★★ - Had some things that appeal to me, but a poor finished product._
