Reviews

Critics had mixed reactions to 'The Cell'. Some praised its visually stunning cinematography and imaginative portrayal of the subconscious mind. Variety described it as 'a mesmerizing visual experience that pushes the boundaries of the genre'. However, others found the story lacking depth and coherence, with Roger Ebert stating, 'The Cell is relentlessly stylish, but too many of the film's images seem to serve no purpose other than their own tawdry sake'. Despite its flaws, the film garnered praise for Jennifer Lopez's performance and the creative direction of Tarsem Singh. Rotten Tomatoes gave it a 45% rating, while IMDb rated it 6.4/10, and Metacritic scored it 40/100.
