Review of The Box

The Box (II) (2007)
3/10
More holes and twists than a curly wurly !
21 January 2008
Warning: Spoilers
only very slight spoiler (if you could even call it that) Many versions of the same robery from witness accounts or police summaries, many do not make any sense what so ever, the premise is good, but if you can apply rational to the storyline you are given, the holes become like a cartoon cheese. once they have done with the ridiculous possibilities then they start adding the twists, and you start asking yourself, well if they already knew that guy then how come yada yada yada... this goes on through the entire second half and the entire film gets ruined, why is it American films just cannot "do" twists, they either give that many clues you'd have to be blind deaf and dumb not to see it coming, or in the case of this film, make them so absured they stretch the boundaries of logic. by the end of the film its a surprise that everybody wasn't on first name terms and schooled together. ridiculous describes the story..
