With an original concept, chilling kills, and stunning performances, The Call is more than worth picking up.

Thrillist

This unpredictable Korean export juggles more than a few tones and subtexts, and does it quite craftily.

Through effective world-building and acting, The Call creates a distinctively chilling and suspenseful vibe that will keep audiences on the edge of their seats until its very last moments.

One of the better 2020 genre films from Korea, and one of the few to keep its focus on a fun high concept premise rather than getting distracted by last act melodrama

Rated: 4/5

Flickering Myth

Terrific fun, with plenty of wickedness and gory surprises, all topped off by a captivating turn from Jong-seo Jun, The Call is well worth answering.

I thought it was a great unique story you don't see often. I will think of the very very end as an alternative ending that doesn't make sense due to the timeline.

The movie has a really good concept and interesting plotline. However, the way the story plays out at times really makes you scratch your head. The villain was a bit overpowered - she ate up the main character and left no crumbs. What did that strawberry guy ever do to her...
