Colin Farrell stars a Stu, a wanna be PR guy for the rich and famous. Problem is he doesn't have any rich or famous clients. So as the mover and shaker that he is he must try to make people believe that he is something he is not.

Now, that doesn't seem like much of a crime to most people, but to a psycho sniper it is a crime.

This is where Stu answers a phone in a phone booth in New York City and the rest of the film is Stu with a phone to his ear inside the booth.

Now this being New York and all, Stu gets to interact with some nutty people, you know hookers, strippers, cops, pizza guys.

And all the while he is being mentally tortured by the great voice work of Kiefer Sutherland. Sutherlands voice work puts him in the list of great thriller killers who use their voice like the killer from "SCREAM" and "JOY RIDE".

The movie tries to work in a sub-plot about Forest WHitaker who is the cop trying to talk Stu out of the booth but this story sucks. It is slow and doesn't do anything but take tension away from the film.

The movie is intense most of the time and could have been great if it had a better director than Joel Schumacher who seems to be able to take good ideas and make them good, he just doesn't have what it takes to grab a piece of good material and make it great.

"Phone Booth" is worth seeing but not for a full price ticket.
