Review of Buried (2010) by Florain — 12 Feb 2011
Worst movie I've ever seen! Holy crap! I can't believe there's not a flood of hate for this movie! Read the critic reviews and pay attention to the details: "Ninety minutes of being buried alive with Ryan Reynolds" "Rodrigo Cortes keeps the action bound to the box, limiting his lighting to naturalistic approximations, so that much of Reynolds's performance consists of him grunting and heaving in the dark.
" "Your enjoyment - if that's the right word - of Buried will hinge on two things: Your ability to tolerate situations in which characters are confined to very tight spaces, and your willingness to be emotionally manipulated in the cheapest way imaginable.
" Bottom line: the movie is 90 minutes of staring at a dimly lit Ryan Reynolds as he grunts and makes pitiful attempts at creating drama and suspense. Failing so epicly, I felt morally obligated to make an account on this site.
