★★
Halle Berry slums it with a genre pic that is actually pretty good for what it is, for the first hour or so. It falls apart in the final act. Berry plays a 911 operator who's on the phone when a girl is killed by a home invader. Months later, she gets another 911 call, and it's from a kidnapped girl, this one in the trunk of a car, and she eventually figures out it's the same guy. While the movie focuses on that, it's decent. The last half-hour though just gets ridiculous, devolving into Death By Studio Rewrites.
