"Phone Booth," a 20th Century Fox release, is rated R for pervasive language and some violence As executed in Joel Schumacher's "Phone Booth," starring Colin Farrell as the victim and Kiefer Sutherland as the largely unseen gunman, the idea holds about as much substance as a busy signal and proves more annoying than a telemarketer calling at supper time to hawk time-shares in Florida Alfred Hitchcock's "Lifeboat" and Ron Howard's "Apollo 13" are notable examples But sunken-ship survivors lost at sea or astronauts lost in space make for grand drama Sutherland's vocals make for the movie's best performance NC-17 â€â€? No one under 17 admitted Running time: 81 minutes And Stu realizes his seemingly omniscient tormentor knows all about him and has appointed himself avenging angel for Stu's petty transgressions â€â€?â€â€?â€â€? Motion Picture Association of America rating definitions: G â€â€? General audiences Stories told largely in confined spaces can work As a 10-word Hollywood pitch, it sounds like a cool and novel scenario He's given nothing more to utter than standard-issue patter of the misanthropic madman, but Sutherland delivers with an icy wickedness that give the cliches more weight than they really have Farrell, who starred in Schumacher's splendid Vietnam drama "Tigerland," plays Stu Shepard, a vile, deceitful, second-rate publicist strutting Manhattan's streets with cell phone to ear, angling for headlines and magazine covers for his clients Stu absentmindedly answers, and out comes Sutherland's menacing voice, noting that a "ringing phone has to be answered, doesn't it?" The caller quickly convinces Stu that if he hangs up, he'll be shot dead C One and a half stars out of four All ages admitted Minus the credits, "Phone Booth" thankfully runs only 75 minutes or so Schumacher tries to flesh out the skeletal concept with noise and fury: Urban chaos outside the phone booth, media mayhem sparked by the standoff, turgid editing that includes tiresome images inset within the main action The plot of "Phone Booth" is so dissimilar that it's doubtful those shootings will resonate in many viewers' minds while watching the movie PG-13 â€â€? Special parental guidance strongly suggested for children under 13 He uses the pay phone so his wife (Radha Mitchell) won't see the calls on his cellular bills Forest Whitaker rounds out the cast as a police captain leading the response after the sniper opens fire and witnesses mistakenly report the crazy guy in the phone booth as the gunman Some material may be inappropriate for young children Stu is perpetually operating, constantly dissembling In every respect, he's a disagreeable little twit, which makes it nearly impossible to empathize with this heel over what happens one particular day All Schumacher and screenwriter Larry Cohen offer in "Phone Booth" are an ill-defined villain and a patsy so unlikable his fate is a matter of indifference to audiences Under 17 requires accompanying parent or adult guardian PG â€â€? Parental guidance suggested , that killed 13 people At the Movies: 'Phone Booth' Apr 3, 6:17 AM EST Guy held captive in a phone booth by a sniper The phone immediately rings after Stu hangs up on his daily flirtation R â€â€? Restricted "Phone Booth" had been scheduled for release in November but was delayed because of the sniper shootings around Washington, D Every day, Stu stops at one of the city's last remaining enclosed phone booths to call one of his clients, an aspiring actress (Katie Holmes) he's trying to maneuver into bed Yet even at that brisk length, listening to Meryl Streep's dial-tone impersonation from "Adaptation" for the same duration would prove more satisfying Some material may not be suitable for children Farrell and the other on-screen characters are pretty much bound to shrillness, which deafens and deadens the audience to the few emotional nuances Cohen's dialogue might hold Among them "The Hours" grossed $337,000 in only 11 theaters for a whopping $30,636 average The four films, joined by a year-end rush of limited releases aiming for Academy Award consideration, were the stars of the biggest post-Christmas box office weekend ever, capping a year that's set records for tickets sales 2 million, a $5,114 per-theater average that gave it a fifth-place finish at the box office We are basically selling out everywhere," Sands said 1 million 6 Movie theater attendance for the year is expected to end 5 percent higher than last year, Dergarabedian said "Catch Me If You Can," $30 million "The Wild Thornberrys Movie," $7 1 million in 77 theaters for an impressive $27,300 per-theater average 1 million, becoming one of the speediest films ever to cross the $200 million mark, according to studio estimates Sunday 4 million The film, also distributed by Miramax, goes into wider release in January 8 "The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers," $48 The Holocaust drama "The Pianist" opened on just six screens and pulled in $104,051, or $17,342 per venue The drama stars Nicole Kidman as Virginia Woolf and Julianne Moore and Meryl Streep as two women influenced by the writer's work "Gangs of New York," $11 2 million The weekend held some bad news for studios 6 million "The Hot Chick," $4 " "This film is the story of the holiday season," said Paul Dergarabedian, president of box-office tracker Exhibitor Relations 7 1 million in 1,195 theaters, a per-screen average of $954 9 million during its second weekend for a 12-day gross of $200 10 6 million since opening Wednesday 2, capturing $30 million in its first weekend and $48 " "We knew it was a risk dubbing it and taking it to a mass audience "Die Another Day," $4 9 million Rick Sands, chief operating officer at Miramax, said the poor showing may have been because the film was made in Italian and dubbed into English 1 million in its second weekend for a total of $43 "Catch Me If You Can" also stars Tom Hanks as an FBI agent pursuing Abagnale, who became a master check forger and posed as an airline pilot, a doctor and a lawyer while still in his teens "Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets," $6 "Pinocchio," Robert Benigni's new live-action version of the Disneyfied Italian folk tale, took in just $1 4 million 3 3 was the Sandra Bullock-Hugh Grant romance "Two Weeks Notice," which earned $16 " The studio was holding out more hope for Martin Scorsese's "Gangs of New York," a dark, R-rated epic that contrasts sharply with the usual lighthearted holiday fare 1 Jennifer Lopez's "Maid in Manhattan" was a close fourth with $13 million in its third weekend and an overall take of $57 1 million 'Rings' Sequel Crosses $200 Million Mark Dec 30, 12:56 PM EST "Catch Me If You Can" couldn't catch up with "The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers Overall, it has grossed $30 Expanding to 2,190 theaters in its second weekend, "Gangs" earned $11 "Maid in Manhattan," $13 million "Two Weeks Notice," $16 "We are not happy with the performance theatrically, but from a financial perspective we are fine," Sands said, noting that Miramax spent $21 million on "Pinocchio " The "Lord of the Rings" sequel took in $48 Playing in 3,156 theaters, it averaged $9,506 per screen "Drumline," $8 " Steven Spielberg's "Catch Me If You Can," starring Leonardo DiCaprio as real-life '60s con man Frank Abagnale Jr 2 In limited release, the musical "Chicago," starring Catherine Zeta-Jones and Renee Zellweger, danced away with $2 Final figures will be released Monday , Inc Estimated ticket sales for Friday through Sunday at North American theaters, according to Exhibitor Relations Co 5 5 million Slipping to No Its weekend average of $13,508 per theater had "Two Towers" fulfilling predictions that it would outperform its predecessor, last year's "The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring The weekend brought a flurry of other small-release debuts trying for critical acclaim and Academy Award notice 5 million "To say it's this generation's `Star Wars' is almost an understatement , debuted at No 4 million "We were only limited by seats Already, box office receipts for 2002 have surpassed $9 billion, an increase of about 10 percent over last year's total 9 8 million 4 |
