Easily one of the most imaginative and brilliantly crafted films of this year. Everything in this film is perfect. The lighting, the camera angles, the plot. Brilliantly driven and acted. I found myself on the edge of my seat quite a few times, and felt I could relate to the simple fact that most humans are useless in a crisis. This is not just a film about a man in a box, it's so much more than that. It's full of depth and story. Some say they found the film very claustrophobic but I felt oddly soothed by the whole affair. I actually dropped off for a few seconds on several occasions. Not because the film is boring, far from it in fact. It's just full of natural sounds, which were really relaxing, in an odd way.
It also came to my attention that some people just don't know what a good film is. They just can't appreciate anything different. The cinema was full of fat and scruffy teenagers, expecting to be scared. They ended up disappointed due to the lack of blood and gore. After the film finished, all I heard was profanity. The film was awful apparently. To tell you the truth, it's one of the best films of 2010. It's different and imaginative, and just such a massive step up from the generic movies the film industry is churning out at the moment.
I loved the soundtrack as well, the opening titles were quite Hitchcockian.
