Nokia Debuts Action Thriller Flick Shot Entirely By Smartphone

Will the first generation of smartphone movies be studied in future film history classes along with the works of Eisenstein, Muybridge and Edison? Hmm … probably not, but its fun to speculate. It also fun to watch “The Commuter”, a mini action flick filmed entirely on an Nokia N8, complete with a Parkour-inspired chase sequence.

The groundbreaking film, directed by the McHenry Brothers, was shot in just four days with the Nokia N8 using no back up cameras, with the streets of London and St Albans providing the backdrop to Nokia’s story about one commuter’s eventful journey to work.
