THE CELL
January 21, 2015  | By David Bianculli

Starz!, 9:00 p.m. ET

 

This movie is 15 years old now – and that’s how long ago Jennifer Lopez was primed to cross over from pop music to movie stardom. Now, with her new movie hitting theaters, and with her back on American Idol, she’s riding higher than ever. This neglected 2000 movie, though, is a visual stunner, and not just because of what happens when Lopez, as a social worker aiding in a kidnapping investigation, is pulled into the twisted mind of a comatose serial killer. The killer is played by Vincent D’Onofrio, and the FBI agent, playing it completely straight, by Vince Vaughn.
