History YMMV / PhoneBooth

* EvilIsCooll: That voice!

* HilariousInHindsight: The sniper, voiced by Creator/KieferSutherland, threatens Stu over the phone. In ''TwentyFour'', he would be the one being threatened. In the finale, though, [[spoiler: he threatens a character over the phone, while aiming a sniper rifle at him the whole time, no less]].

* WhatAnIdiot: It's fairly reasonable for those hookers to assume that Stu shot their pimp, but it's far less reasonable for them to stand around screaming at someone who they're convinced has a gun and just used it to murder someone right in front of them.

-->'''Sniper:''' [[SarcasmMode That would explain it]]. [[KnightTemplar Bible-crazed]] killer targets fashion-obsessed publicist.

* DarknessInducedAudienceApathy: You know that both Stu himself and the Caller were hard to root for when both of them are established as bad people. Stu only really ends up becoming the hero because the Caller is much worse.
* EveryoneIsJesusInPurgatory: The phone booth is a confession booth and the sniper is either a priest or God, to whom Stu is confessing his sins. [[spoiler: In the end he is absolved.]]

* MagnificentBastard: The sniper. As terrifying as he is, he is amazing.
* NightmareFuel: Being trapped in a phone booth, held hostage by a guy who's aiming a high-powered rifle at you. Yeah, that'd be pretty damn scary.
* ParanoiaFuel: Admit it. You've been a lot more cautious about answering phones since this film came out.
* TearJerker: Stu's confessions.
* {{Wangst}}: The Caller fakes his VillainousBreakdown [[FreudianExcuse about his childhood]] before revealing that he was just kidding.
** Stu himself complains every now and then whenever other people tries to tell him to get out of the phone booth.
