DAYVISON ANDERSON CARDOSO FARIAS
“Untraceable” was a film produced in
2008, written by Robert Fyvolent and Mark Brinker, and directed by
Gregory Hoblit. The film tells Jennifer Marsh’s story, a FBI agent played by
actress Diane Lane. Her job is to investigate cyber crimes, together with her
partner Griffin Dowd, played by the actor Colin Hanks. In other words, they
have to discover the identity of people who divert funds from others, due to a virus
in the computer. However, agent Marsh is about to face her most difficult case:
who is behind a home page called KillWithMe.com, in which a serial killer makes
available in live streaming video the people he intends to kill. The film
really starts when Marsh receives a website written down on a piece of paper (www.killwithme.com). When she
accesses this website, she comes face to face with his first victim: the Lulu
cat. The killer shows visitors all the suffering of his victims, and a
distorted use of interactivity that characterizes the Internet, for the ordeal
of those who are in the serial kilelr´s hands are directly proportional to the
number of visitors the site attracts. The film ends when the serial killer,
played by the actor Joseph Cross, is caught by the agent Marsh when she is
captured by him. She shoots him until he dies. There’s no unexpected twist
because the end of the film is very obvious, like most of these films ( a
series of clichés provided by the immaturity of its script). The film involves some
crimes, as well as serial killing, but the main crime is the cyber crime. The
punishment that he got is not really fair, I think that he should have paid for
his crime with life imprisonment.
I recommend this film to everyone who stays on the internet
for much time, buying, meeting people, playing games, downloading all types of
files. Internet is an important work and study tool, for fun and relationships,
but it can also be a lethal weapon.
