    Storyline

    • Trivia
      Chris Evans did his own car stunts. Before production began, he was trained for five weeks at a Los Angeles stunt school. Most of the stunts are done by the actors themselves.
    • Goofs
      When Jessica Martin clicks the wires together to make a phone call, she first has wires apart and then tapped them together to make contact for very brief seconds. This is contrary to how pulse dialing telephone systems work. In real life, she'd have to do the opposite. The wires should make contact, and then break contact very rapidly for the number the caller wants to dial.
    • Quotes

      [last lines]

      Jessica Martin: I don't know if there's anything I could ever do to thank you

      Ryan: I do. Don't ever call me again.

    • Crazy credits
      The first part of the closing credits show cast and crew names on cellular telephone screens, in scenes from the film.

    Very enjoyable
    My husband and I saw this movie last night, and were extremely pleased by it. The movie starts with a bang immediately and keeps going! We found it well written, well acted and well directed. It's suspenseful and quite thrilling. I thought the actor's characters were right on target - the self centered young man, the distraught and frantic mother, the tired cop waiting for a retirement he's not quite sure he wants, and the baddies - whooo boy! In this movie, the baddies are without any redeemable features - the kind that you yourself would like to beat the tar out of!! Speaking of beating the tar out of someone, wait until you get a dose of the lawyer - egads. The movie is fast paced with nary a dull moment. The action scenes were great, and the building of the tense moments was very well done. Drama, suspense and with a touch of comedy - what more are you looking for in a movie?
