The Call, adapted from the 2011 film The Caller, offers a gripping story of cross-time communication that alters the present in real time. While this concept creates suspense, it introduces major logical flaws—such as memory inconsistencies and sudden resurrections—that clash with established time-travel logic. Despite its plot issues, the film shines through stellar performances, particularly by Jong Seo, and strong visual execution, though the after-credit scene undermines what could have been a powerful ending.
