    Cool, I'll watch it. At least I won't be expecting anything great.

    Expect zero and you will enjoy it...otherwise, prepare for disappointment.

    Can any movie with Mr. Jackson in it truly be disappointing?

    I wouldnt say cell was a great movie, but it was enjoyable enough. I liked it better than Dolans Cadillac.

    If they forced the terrorists being held at Guantanamo to watch this it would be declared cruel and unusual punishment. It is that bad. Cusack looks like he was lobotomized before the filming began. The ending is absolutely hilarious but not in a good way.

    I finally watched this yesterday. Thanks to this board, I expected zero and did enjoy it.

    At first I thought, what was so bad about this? Now I reflect on it and think it could have used a bit more character depth, but given that it was such a small-focus story, I didn't think it was bad at all.

    I admit, though, I have no idea what was up with...

    Spoiler:
    ...the ending. First, I thought he detonated the truck, then thought perhaps he and his son were in heaven (as they were enjoying pleasantries, which wouldn't be conventionally possible given the detonation), but then Cusack was walking with the others in the circle (and hat tip to whoever thought of using "You'll Never Walk Alone" ), so I can only assume that he never actually detonated the truck but was tricked into hallucinating that so that he would become one of them. Does anyone agree or know better?

    I kinda liked the movie and I agree the ending was confusing. I suppose your second assumption is the correct one

    Yup, that's what I got from it too, but agree it could've been presented in a less confusing way.
