Watched
The Box
Last night
Richard "One Hit Wonder" Kelly tries again to reach the dizzying heights of his debut feature "Donnie Darko" with "The Box", but I am afraid he just tries to cram in too much to make it enjoyable! The premise I am sure is obvious to all ... you are given a box with a button on it, press the button and you become a millionaire. However, someone you don't know will die immediately. The film's first half hour or so are very promising, but then the story falls apart and ends with plot holes you could drive a tank through! After 2 hours, I seem to remember - Mars, a club foot, lightening, sound waves, nose bleeds and 'employers' ...... little else!!!
... Give it a miss guys! Not even the retro 70's look can't save it!
