Buried Alive

Buried Alive
Ryan Reynolds movie.
In fact, he is almost the only person in this movie except for some voices over the telephone and a short video message involving two other people.

Very taught. Very suspenseful.
Very claustrophobic.

This movie is amazingly well done. Not a blockbuster, not something for Imax 3D or 3D period. This movie is just pure storytelling through showing, not telling.

Ryan wakes up to find he is buried in a box barely big enough to hold him. He is being held hostage by terrorists, insurgents, Iraqi civilians - he isn't sure - and it gets worse from there.

All I can tell you is right up to the very last minute before the credits rolled I was expecting, anticipating, virtually sitting on the edge of my seat. Then it ended and all I could say was "Fuck you! Fuck You!" I want all of the contractors that have been working in Iraq to come home now and not do any more contract work over there ever again - ever.

Ryan Reynolds should have got some sort of an award for this film. He is so good at the comedic action and romantic comedies. I liked him in Green Lantern but Buried Alive took real talent.

I give it an A because I want there to be a part two and things go the way I need for them to make me feel better about the world in general.
 
You'd look good buried.

At least the dirt would take some of that terminal white off you.
