Movie Review: Untraceable

This is saw with technology. Someone is snatching people and killing them on the internet. The gimmick is that whatever cruel methodology is used for each of the killings makes it faster as more and more people log in to see it. I am always amazed at the gruesome ways that can be devised to mutilate, maim, and kill people in movies. Anyway, the cybercrime division, most of whose activity was focused on sex offenders picks up on this one. One of their own, who was figured out the possible killer and motive gets his in a tank of acid. Diane Lane, who is the obvious single mom heroine gets kidnapped and is supposed to be the next victim, but all works well in the end and the cyber killer gets his just deserts. Watchable, relatively predictable, mindless, sufficient gratuitous gore, although another couple of victims would have been good. Not for the timid.
