Review of The Box (2009) by Arleth A — 02 Sep 2012
I really thought this was going somewhere amazing with it's Twilight Zone air and pace. The story of a couple who are given the option to, push a button and get a million dollars, with the only catch being that someone they don't know will die.
It starts off as a real moral dilemma and changes gears into a space mystery which really could have worked and then, it just falls apart. I'm still not sure if the script based on the short story "Button Button" just doesn't translate well to the screen or if my expectations based on the first 35 mins were set too high.
Prepare to be underwhelmed by the outcome.
