Trivia:

When Jennifer finds the camera mounted on the car, you can see a brief clip from the blog section of killwithme.com and one of the comments, made by "clownz23", says she "holds a gun like a cop only hotter".

Goofs:

Continuity: At the hotel, when Det. Box arrives to check on Jennifer, she looks out the window to see who it is, despite the clearly visible peep hole in the door. In the outside view, the door doesn't have a peep hole, but it's back again on the inside view.

Quotes:

[online, Griffin sits in a chamber with sulfuric acid pumping into it]
Detective Eric Box: If that's water in that tank, pretty soon he's going to be sitting in battery acid.

Underrated

That's the one word I'll tell you describes this film.Untraceable was an awesome, suspenseful, thriller with great action, new death strategies, and wonderful acting, that has "WAY TOO LOW" of a rating.Diane Lane was a great actress in this film, and she made the movie totally believable.While there were maybe 3 flaws I found in the story line, this movie was great entertainment.I found myself yelling at the screen and telling the people in the film what to do, and I have never been "THAT" interested in a film.There was 1 thing I found predictable, but most of the time I was so interested in the movie, that I was barely making any predictions AT ALL!!This was a wonderful film, that is under appreciated and if you haven't seen it PLEASE DO!!
