BURIED-SUNDANCE 2010

If you're claustrophobic then the new thriller Buried is not for you. This creative effort from director Rodrigo Cortes features Ryan Reynolds as a man who awakens to find himself buried in a coffin. With limited air supply and a dying cell phone in hand, Reynolds only has a short amount of time to figure out why he's there and more importantly, how the hell to get out. You'd think that a ninety five minute movie set entirely in a coffin would make for a really dull film, but you'd be wrong. Buried is anything but dull. Through stellar cinematography, a solid performance by Ryan Reynolds, and innovative direction by Cortes, Buried is a top notch exercise in sweat inducing tension and Hitchcockian style intrigue. How does it all end? Like I'm really going to spoil it for you!

Grade: B+
