They're both good movies, but I enjoyed Panic Room more.

Panic Room because of the better cast

Phone Booth has more rewatch value.

I was gonna say the exact opposite. I've rewatched 'Panic Room' several times over the years and always enjoyed it, but I've never felt any inclination to watch 'Phone Booth' a second time. I didn't hate it or anything, but it was very forgettable, to me.

Don't get me wrong I love panic room and have watched a fair few times, but Phonebooth is my jam, man.

Panic Room.

Phone Booth had an intriguing setup but didn’t really know what to do after 30 mins.

Panic Room was smart enough to make the thieves and their dynamic a major focus. It was also better shot and had more ‘teeth’. Raoul was a truly terrifying sociopath.

Honestly, it would depend on my mood. Both are masterful tales of suspense.
