    Default The Box (2009)



    Hmmm.... what can I say. well its weird, but not bad. Truth be told, watched it a bit at a time (which is not the best way to watch a film). I am sure it has some hidden meaning but it escaped me at the time (will require a 2nd viewing) but performances were fine.

    I guess if you like "out there" films, this will be for you!.

    edit: Not going to lie, there were times when I went WTF! I don't get it. But that might be because of the stop/start viewing decision doh!

    Edit:



    A shocker, which is a shame as its Aust. I guess its a modern day puberty blues, but fails on many levels. Really boring, really pointless. There were moments were I went, what I am watching this for. The only redeeming quality was some of the surf footage was good.

    I'd steer clear of this one unless nothing else is on offer. (or perhaps if your a collector of Aust films, you'll add it, trust me it is a once only watch film)

    Couldn't agree more. I was lost more than once, it's weird in a good way. I was always a fan of the twilight zone and saw this as it was based on an old episode. It goes a lot deeper than the tz thats for sure. Man that guy was ugly!
