Michael was creepy, but...


I did respect Michael's strong love for his sister. There seems to be an erosion of all things pure and wholesome in modern America but that wasn't the case in Michael's family. I certainly don't condone what he did to those girls but the value he placed on family was heartwarming.

Hitler was also really sweet to his dog, so I guess that means he demonstrates wholesome values as well?

When you're 17 a cow can seem dangerous and forbidden...am I alone here?

reply

Hitler? How can you mention his name in the same breath as Michael from The Call? As far as I know, Hitler didn't have a loving family.

Well said

God, you are retarded! Maybe you'll get kidnapped by a psycho like Michael someday then we'll see how heartwarming it is to you! Stupid b****!

I don't condone what he did, though.

"Heartwarming"? I can't see how someone can watch this movie and have their heart warmed by the monster in it. Male violence against women is ridiculously common in modern society and nothing about a man who kidnaps, beats, tortures and kills several underage women is heartwarming. The men who do these things often feel completely justified and comments like that don't help.

I get where you are coming from, em. I didn't like what he did to those girls. However, I respected his Christian conservative values and his passionate focus on family.

They had a thing going on, that was what was implied in the movie. He was in love with her. One of the pictures, he was kissing her on the mouth? Yeah, not family kissing on the mouth. I mean if you really paid attention, that's what was implied

Oh my, i really hope you're a troll, because if your serious you need help. Incest is not okay, i'm all for love too, but not when it means you're willing to kill people.

We are on the same page, alyssa. I hate killing, too. I didn't like that about Michael. It was his character flaw. However, as I mentioned, I did admire his love for family.

Michael showed absolutely no love or compassion in this film. He was a selfish, sadistic and had zero empathy for anyone, ESPECIALLY his sister!! If you missed that, you missed the ENTIRE plot of the movie!

It's sad that the OP equates Michael's actions and motives as true love. Nothing could be further from the truth. Wow. I guess the OP has never been loved in a healthy way.

reply

I did admire his love for family.


So if one of my brothers would be gay like me and I would start dting my own brother, would you admire that love for family as well??

reply

Sure. Who are you hurting?

kewlkat has got to be a troll. No one else sees anything heartwarming, admirable or Christian about this man nor his relationship with his family.

reply

How can you make such a blanket statement? You can't possibly know what everyone in the entire world feels about Michael.

People stop feeding this troll. First of all this guy is not a Christian, he does not work for Christ, he is working for the devil in this movie. No excuses for the killings and kidnappings. Tired of hearing people who do wrong excuses: "But they have some family problems and mental issues". So I guess if you have something wrong mentally or depressing to you it excuses your wrong doings correct. SMH!

reply

Michael's problems don't excuse his horrible actions, SbF. But it is foolish to ignore his love of family.

You little creepy girl need help. If I love my family its okay for me to randomly kidnap some stranger. Gotcha. Since you say that is Christian values let me go find in the Gospels where Jesus did this or preached this. Amen.

reply

No need to call names, SbF. We should act mature and be cordial to each other.

Yay for feeding the troll! Lets keep it up!

I'm not A troll and how do you know what was in Michael's heart? You aren't God. Furthermore, there is no sin that can't be forgiven by Christ... unless the New Testament was changed from the last time I read it. Is there an unforgivable sin that I am unaware of? If there is, what was the point of Jesus dying?

No offense but I'm having a really tough time understanding you people and your "logic."
