Anyone else can't wait to see this film? I think it looks fantastic (even though not a lot has been shown) but the premise is fantastic and has been getting great reviews

But then I would watch a film about 2 flies crawling up a wall for an hour if there was a glimpse of RR at the top
Wow! You truely are a loyal fan of Roland Rat!
You must see people trying to find him?
RR for 90 uninterrupted minutes ?
I will be in heaven
No, not Roland Rat !!
Nope. Well this is based on reviews and peoples comments. But no you see nothing like that it is literally just him in a box with a phone and limited light.
Considering it is literally Ryan in a box throughout, it has you gripped till the end.
It's quite intense too, maybe not for the claustrophobic ones among you!
Would you class it as an horror film? Is it jumpy?
What does he do in there?
Nothing too bad but for people who want to know nothing don't look at this.
No I went in expecting a horror but it was more of an intense thriller/drama.
Basically he's been buried alive but has been buried with a mobile phone. He uses it to communicate with people and try to escape.
It's worth going to see, like I said I was gripped until the end which is something considering it's a one person film!
It's really a throwback to a time when studios were happy for the likes of Hitchcock to push what they could do in telling a story on film. Sadly no-one in Hollywood today cares, as long as their film makes the moolah.
Considering that Reynolds is in shot for the entire film (and for that reason, it's easy to say he's the best thing in it!) he and the director to a great job of holding the attention of an audience for so long. There are a few lulls along the way, but overall it's gripping stuff.
Review here.
I need to find someone to go with me because my boyfriend is claustrophobic and he quickly said 'no!' to watching it. My sister said she is not interested in watching a man trapped in a box for 90 minutes (:rolleyes:), so I will have to convince one of my mates to tag along with me.
I'm going off on a tangent but can DS's movie critic stop reviewing films with blatant spoilers for those who have not seen it and might just like an objective review?
