But this wasnt the first time the book had been adapted.
Back in 2009, it was turned into a movie called Cell 211.
To call it intense would be an understatement.
Cell 211 is a rare movie thats made me want to pause midway through just to catch my breath.
Trust me when I say that things get almost unbearably intense at certain points.
What is Cell 211 about?
Ever had a tough first day at a new job?
Awaking to an overrun prison, hes forced to pretend to be a prisoner to survive.
This gives Cell 211 an extra wrinkle, and makes it a more thoughtful thriller than expected.
OnRotten Tomatoes, the movie currently holds a very impressive 98% score.
As you would expect its also been Certified Fresh.
However, some critics noted that the movie stretches believability often requiring you to suspend your disbelief.
The movie has also been warmly embraced by viewers over the years.
Again on Rotten Tomatoes, it holds an 88% rating from audiences.
Its a proper genre titan.
