Review of Buried (2010) by Enrica C — 18 Nov 2012
Well, for once "Buried" is not a boring movie considering the fact that it's totally and completely shoot in a coffin. That was sort of a surprise 'cause you'd think that just one location for a 90 minutes movie would be a little repetitive, right? Well, it takes sometime to get it going, but when it does this movie kind of works. I wouldn't call it full of suspance or thrilling, but it was indeed entertaining in a very peculiar way. That's it: this movie is to appriciate because of its being unique...
The script felt real but I didn't appriciate all that terroristic talking. It's cool that even at the end you can't really understand what really happened -- everything is so confused, just as it would happen in real life. "Buried" is not only well written, but also well acted. Probably Ryan Reynolds' best interpretation to this date.
After a very powerful ending you probably won't feel like seeing it again ever in your entire life. It felt claustrophobic at times. Repetitive at others. But it's just a coffin with a man inside. Plus a lighter, a torch a cell phone, a pencil and a few other things -- so what else would you expect? Just try it.
