"I'm videotaping hot chicks walking in the bikinis.
Man, this is the greatest cell phone ever made. It is, I'm not kidding. Ryan says this as the movie "CELLULAR" begins.

Mobile phone's WIFI, WAP, GPS, GPRS, Music, Camera, Video, HiFi, the lesser known, ever new, amazing magic, used either for sinister, clandestine or fun n funky purpose simply isn't there to send chemicals racing in your blood as you watch the movie CELLULAR. The name 'CELLULAR' is a misnomer.

The magic of the hand held cell phone that links one person to other across continents, over skies through the remote satellite, the blue tooth; for love, for entertainment, for business, for pleasure or as status signature or just as the single and worlds topmost ranking hype that is as widespread as an epidemic craze of the modern times is conspicuously missing in the CELLULAR.

A random wrong number on Ryan's (Chris Evans) cell phone sends him into a high-stakes race against time to save kidnapped Jessica Martin's (Kim Basinger) life. With no knowledge of Jessica other than her hushed, fearful voice on the other end of the tenuous cell phone connection, Ryan is quickly thrown into a world of deception and murder in a frantic search to find and save her. They are out looking for Ryan:

Dmitri: No, I don't see him.
Ethan: He's the one on the cell phone, you idiot.
[looks through his binoculars and sees various people on cell phones]
