This movie is a little heavy on torture violence, so it's not for young kids or even tweens; teens shouldn't really be bothered by it though. It's kind of a mystery and a great thriller; I recommend it to all teens. It also had a great (and as far as I've seen unique) plot and an amazing main character. I absolutely loved this movie and watched it several times. ^_^

What Parents Need to Know
About Untraceable
Parents need to know that this violent thriller features several long, disturbing scenes of torture -- bodies are bloodied, burned, dissolved in acid, and nearly decapitated by whirling blades. Other upsetting scenes feature Tasering, shooting, and a threat against a young girl, as well as plenty of images of dead bodies. All of this is framed within an argument against easy access to images of violence and abuse via the Internet, but that doesn't make it any less disturbing. Language includes repeated uses of "f--k" and other profanity.

Good Suspense movie but too gory for me...
Untraceable was a good movie, it kept me on my the edge of my seat some, but mostly it made me turn around in my seat to avoid seeing the morbid and gory people. Yes it is sad what happens and sad to hear the story behind the killer but even for a horror movie it went beyond imagination. The first time i saw this i turned it off after i saw a guy boil from the heat he was put through. But after my friend told me the ending i had to watch the rest. Truly it had a good plot but again, i am sorry to say this too many times it was sick. It really is sad to see what our world calls a "good" horror movie, anyone that wants to see this kind of torture is very sick, i wish it would go back to movies that weren't so gory. The actual sad part of the whole movie was the fact that some sick person created a real website, seriously i went to it and once i saw how many people had logged on to watch a dummy die i had to get off. I hope that nothing that was portrayed in this movie is real and i strongly tell you not to watch it unless you are a mature teen that can handle gore.

This is a really good movie! It is suspenceful, and it is a little gross in parts. It ends well, though, and i recomend it to anyone 12 + who is mature enough to handle the violence.

Cover your eyes!
This thriller is a griddy toture movie. It contains lots of blood and some salty langauge. You can bet that you will be grossed out after the first 20 minutes of this movie. But it also has a message, in the movie peole are beging killed on a website. The only thing is that the more peolple that stream and watch these events take place the faster the victems die. A quote of the killer is "If people wern't watching you'd be sitting in a tub of water right now (the charcater is sitting in battery acid.) But people just want to see you die." We are sick people.

Entertainment!
Story kept my interest from beginning to end. I'm a junkie for the crime-solving story.... The villian's crimes were quite gruesome, and that was a bit disturbing, and distracted me a bit. It was heart pounding, and I got into the movie. It was impossible to "solve the crime" or figure it out, due to not enough being revealed too early.

Same old tech idiocy
Same old story. Almost every computer-related part of the plot is completely wrong. This movie is surely a massive insult to the FBI who could located and shut down the "Kill with me" website in short order. Claims like a "spoof card" is untraceable are ludicrous. The idea that the NSA wouldn't help for fear of divulging secret methods is equally ludicrous. As usual, the perp hacks everything at a moment's notice, like an evil genius from a comic book for pre-teens. Have a little more faith in homeland security's modern capabilities, folks!

AMAZING MOVIE!
i loved this movie. even though some scenes were extremely violent, it would only show a brief shot (about 5-10 seconds each of the victim being tortured and then it would go to a scene where the crime lab is watching and trying to figure out who/why/where/how/etc. if you are a fan of the saw films this should be a tame movie for you. it is less torture than saw III and saw IV, but more intense than the first two. the language in this movie, considering it is about a serial killer is very minimal. only about 3 or 4 f--ks, and about 4 or so s--ts, but thats it. no sexual content. VIOLENCE: first scene. you see the killer setting up a trap. (not very obvious what it is) but in the short, a cat dies. second bad scene. a man is kidnapped by the victim and the name of the site is carved into his chest. the cuts are only about as deep as a papercut, but a drug is injected into him that is monitered how much goes in by the more people that log onto the site. 3rd bad scene: a mans legs and hands are cemented into the ground and hot lights are turned on and bubbles grow on his skin. (burned to death). 3rd bad scene: griffin is put in a thing of water. battery acid leaks into the bucket and he dies. fourth bad scene: a video of the killers father blowing his head off. bad scene number 5: main character is kidnapped and hung upside down. almost put through a garden plow. she finds a gun and kills the murderer.

Don't walk away from this movie...RUN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This was a disgusting display of human torture. Not only can't I believe that Diane Lane made such a terrible movie...I am amazed at the sick bastards who wrote it. Isn't there enough suffering in this world???? The writer should be ashamed of themselves...the images of this movie will forever haunt me...I should have left...DO NOT SEE THIS MOVIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
