If you're looking for horror, you're gonna be disappointed. It's not remotely scary at all. It's mostly a drama about a boy and his unlikely friendship with an older man. And when it does delve into the supernatural, it does so for maybe a minute and then goes back to being a drama movie. A rather boring one at that. And the allegory for the film is what, phones are bad? What an extremely unoriginal boomer take.
If you're looking for a movie about spooky phones from the King family this year, make it The Black Phone. You'll have a much better time, be more engaged and might actually get some scares.
