NekoHomey Purely Joyful Movie!

Solidrariol Am I Missing Something?

Frances Chung Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable

Anoushka Slater While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.

ZeroSpoilers It´s a great and ambitious parabole at our own existence as human beings.Intriguing from start to end, and leaving you thinking about it.Outrageous interesting ideas mixed with an okay acting.A pretty good watch!

zearajea I'm never disappointed by the simplicity of those who do not see the forest for the trees. If you attempt to find meaning beyond the creator's personal expression, you will lose all continuity of the film's philosophical meaning. Pay attention to the scripts interpretation of the writers story and you will find this movie as just another screenplay for Hollywood's path in their attempt to make a good film without the redundancy they have shown over the past 40 yrs of movie making. I am happy for anything that reveals Hollywood's attempt in making a screenplay that makes you think. Congratulations on a job well done. People who are disappointed in movies like The Box should stick to Shrek; at least then you'll be able to follow the story as you search for the so-called "plot" you scantly observe in movie's like The Box. Any good writer will provide enough information without losing his or her audience while imparting their storyline. The great part of writing is being able to interpret your creative endeavors for the purpose of relativity. Not everything is self explanatory when one is over thinking the obvious.

michaeltrivedi I found myself in the middle of this movie saying, "This is a very good movie." Now the term "very good" in relations to movies seldom comes to my head, so I have to say there was something there. This movie has something. It often fails miserably at conveying it, and once we think all the wait will finally pay off, it disappoints us again. This happens a few times.But all in all it's a very interesting story that you may or may not want to know how it ends. But I am highly impressed by Cameron Diaz's choices in movies, so I have to say I liked this movie. 7 Stars.

edwardrevans What we have with the box is a neat idea of the moral dilemma but i'm afraid it fails to deliver. There are supporting characters that are not fleshed out as to their role in the story, it's hinted at but not made clear is it Sci-fi, supernatural, or government who is running the show who knows ? The premises is simply pointed out from Arlington Steward at the start Press that button and someone you don't know will die and you get $1 million that's it. So it's a simple choice press the button or not that's the deal or is it ?The death of "someone you don't know" plot point seems to be clumsily shoehorned in by a late introduction of another character suggesting that Norma may have been responsible for that death. Then we have characters who it's seems are puppets, "employees" or even followers of Arlington Steward, but this is never explained, or could it be that everyone is tripping on some sort of substance.Near the climax of the movie we have another plot point where Norma and Arthur's son all of a sudden is made deaf and blind through some sort of kidnapping and ritual but this was not set out as a consequence by Arlington Steward from the outset. So Arlington Steward has a new deal for them which in turn connects a new couple who now have he button.There is a serious lack of attention to detail here in the story narration, it's like the director knows whats going on and assumes we do also. I have seen the box twice now and on both occasions i nodded off that's how engaging it is.
