Late Movie Reviews: "Buried"

Mar 09, 2011 19:41

Easiest job in the world? Working on the movie “Buried.”

Cinematographer: “How about we do a close up on Ryan Reynolds for 90 minutes?”

Costume Designer: “I was thinking a shirt… like… a dirty shirt."

Set Designer: “So, there’s this box. Can I have my check now?”

Seriously though, this movie was so outside the box that it never actually went outside the box. It was Ryan Reynolds and a cell phone, and all the people on the other end of the cell phone are the worst people ever. Not quite, but they are frustrating in that you can see people actually reacting that way.

But anyway, this movie was mostly terrifying, and not at all recommended if you even have a friend or relative who is claustrophobic.

Rating: 4

Rating System:
5 - Invent a time machine to watch this in theatres!
4 - Go find a closing Blockbuster and buy it
3 - Probably should go ahead and make this number 1 on your Netflix Queue.
2 - Keep holding out that Redbox will send you a free rental.
1 - Maybe a friend of a friend has it. You should feel ashamed for asking though.
0 - I’m sure there’s a “How I Met Your Mother” rerun you should be watching.
