A new trailer for the contrived 911 thriller The Call, starring Halle Berry and directed by Brad Anderson (The Machinist), has arrived and I’m really having a hard time believing this thing can turn out any good.
In it, Berry plays a 911 operator who takes a call from a teenage girl (Abigail Breslin) who has just been abducted and soon learns the kidnapper is someone from her past. And, as the trailer suggests, Berry ultimately goes out looking for the guy.
The film arrives on March 15 and I don’t expect it to be around for too long. I was honestly surprised when I read the comments on my post featuring the poster and people saying the trailer looked good. Really?
