If you push the button on the titular box in Richard Kelly’s new sci-fi opus, two things will undoubtedly happen. The first is that somewhere in the world, a person you do not know will die. The second is that after pushing the button, you will receive a briefcase filled with 1 million ...

Review: The Box
cinematical.com 16 days ago — Richard Matheson's original short story, "Button, Button," was a nifty little morality tale about a couple faced with a peculiar opportunity -- if they push a button in a box, they'll get a sum of money but kill a stranger in doing so. That ...
The Box - Review — KillerFilm
Richard Kelly is one of modern cinema’s most interesting directors. He’s the mastermind that brought us Donnie Darko and Southland Tales , and now with The Box he returns with more of his signature strange, and what a welcome return it is. The Box is based on the story, Button, ...

The Box — Movie Mom
I loved "Donnie Darko" and was eager to listen to the DVD commentary by writer/director Richard Kelly. But I had to turn it off after the first ten minutes. Kelly explained too much, and his explanations were so mundane they...
Review: THE BOX — We Are Movie Geeks
It is Hampton, Virginia. The year is 1976. A young, suburban couple, Norma and Arthur Lewis, are awaken by their doorbell at 5:45 in the morning. On their doorstep is a package. Inside the package are two items, a wooden box with a large, red button covered by a locked, glass dome on ...
The Box Movie Review — Are You Screening?
When it comes to moral decisions, humans are actually quite fascinating. I say that not because of anything The Box relates in its unbearable two-hour delivery, but because when moral conundrums are taken as the jumping off point for a story, this sort of nonsense is the result.  ...

"The Box" is perplexing but powerful (Review) — Cinema Soldier
Never push the big red button. It's never a good idea. Things blow up, people die, civilizations end, bad guys laugh. Still, it's always too tempting to resist. The big red button is a problem for us, it seems. In "The Box" that button does two things: it rewards you with one million dollars ...
Nov 7, The Box Horror Movie Review from BHM: The Darkness of Humanity — The Horror Movies Blog from Best-Horror-Movies.com
The Box is superb and deceptively simple. Richard Kelly’s film brilliantly unfolds like an old Twilight Zone episode with an inevitable lesson in the perils of human nature.
Review: THE BOX is a Film you might actually enjoy… I think — GeekTyrant
I wasn’t expecting too much from The Box when I went out to go see it. I wasn’t really sure what to expect, all I knew was that Richard Kelly directed it, and that I liked his first two films Donnie Darko and Southland Tales. He’s made some really good strange films, that’s what I was ...
Don't Mention 'The Twilight Zone' To Richard Kelly Regarding 'The Box' — :: The Playlist ::
Please don't see this as a pile on, it's just what's next, but yes, we saw Richard Kelly's "The Box," last night at Lincoln Center and the director was in attendance for a Q&A afterwards (read our review, we didn't love it).The tendency, in some circles, arguably ours, is to hate on Kelly, call ...
I Do Not Want To Write This Review — my new plaid pants
. Ahhh crap. That was what went through my head about halfway through Richard Kelly's The Box . It actually made me sick to my stomach. Not the film, mind you, but the realization that he just wasn't gonna do it. Y'all know I root for Kelly - the man made Donnie Darko , for the Lord's ...
Review: THE BOX * — THE DARK OF THE MATINEE
A weird guy knocks on your door one morning and offers you a box. It’s got a bright red button covered by a locked lid. Weird guy tells you that if you press the button, two things will happen: you’ll be given one million dollars cash (tax free!), and somewhere, someone who you do not know ...

'The Box' Review: Another Pseudo-Deep, Confused & Silly Richard Kelly Picture Though Not A Disaster Either — :: The Playlist ::
If Richard Kelly's "Donnie Darko," was an auspicious little start — though grossly overrated in nerd circles, as are most half-decent sci-fi or genre films — and "Southland Tales," is a hilarious trainwreck, then his third feature-length film, the suspense thriller, "The Box," is an obtuse, ...
