Untraceable is a disappointing action film and reminded me Silence of the Lambs in many ways - except the Internet users were set up as the murderers by a diabolical predator. The film has potential, but the director Gregory Hoblit (Fracture) does not give the film's plot a smooth feel.
The location is dark, dreary, rainy Portland, Oregon. Diane Lane is the star playing Jennifer Marsh, the FBI special agent, who fights cybercrime. The first few scenes are the actors in the FBI offices spewing out technical and computer terms that glaze the eyes over. We see a raid of a local home when it is determined a cybercrime was committed - a swat team arrests a boy for downloading copyright material - the over reaction seemed off kilter and unbelievable for me.
Untraceable combines a serial killer who sets up a website called [...] with displays of graphic murders and the Internet users who "hit" on the site. Each time they watch the death of the victim comes closer whether dripping of sulfuric acid or heat lamps turning on to burn the victim to death.
Jennifer Marsh, the heroine cybercop, steels herself to find the killer, even though her mother and daughter may be at risk.
The last part of the movie is the best as the thrill of the chase comes to a close.
