What pre-2005 movie has a payphone ringing and someone gets pinned down by a gunman?

Asking for a friend that says she remembers the movie, but I can't find it.

Clues:
- It'snotPhone Booth (2002). They watched this and told me it's the wrong movie.
- It didn't have a lot of swearing like Phone Booth does, at least not MF this MF that.
- It was new in cinemas around 2002. Might be as far back as 1998 or as late as 2005.
- A public payphone rings and a guy answers it, he gets pinned down by a gunman and can't leave the payphone.
- Getting pinned down at the payphone might not be the whole movie but it takes up a lot of it.
- The guy answering the phone might look like Harrison Ford.

I looked up movies like Phone Booth and after checking the trailers, it's not any of them:

Cellular (2004)
Liberty Stands Still (2002)
Panic Room (2002)

Those three are all women and none are stuck at a payphone.

Sounds very similar. I'll think about it. At first I thought it was Enemy of the State but that's not it. Something kind of like that.

This is the only movie I can think of with a phone booth scene somewhat similar.

Wait OP is it John Q? John Q has a scene where they have him on a phone for a while with a sniper shot. Eventually he falls through the ceiling.

It has to be that.

No honestly. It might be that it was Phone Booth and they can't remember that's what it was. There isn't anything else it could be.
