"Untraceable" is a serviceable thriller featuring Diane Lane as a FBI agent on their cyber-crime department facing a cyber-mastermind who uses people's voyeuristic tendencies on the internet to use website hits to kill his victims one by one, the faster people visit the website, the faster the victim dies a gruesome death, with video of the death streamed to the death voyeurs.
Character development is passable, but not thoroughly engaging. The plot twists seem a little stale, and didn't offer much in terms of surprises, though the resolution did bring one viewer out of her seat at my viewing, punctuated with a "Yeah" and wild punch in the air. I guess she was really into the film at that point. Heh.
I give it 2.75 stars, or a grade of B-.
