I just watched the movie "Cellular". It was a pretty fun little thriller involving a kidnapping and a poor dude who gets sucked in to the whole deal just because he answered his cellular phone. Makes me even less interested than ever in answering the phone when it’s a number that I don’t already know. At any rate, the phone guy ends up pulling a Jack Bauer and taking the law into his own hands. William H. Macy plays a slightly kooky cop (kooky in the way William H. Macy’s characters are always kooky), and there’s one other character in the movie that provides better than great comic relief. For now, we’ll just call him "the Porsche-driving attorney". Watch it just for him if no other reason. 4/5 stars.
