Summary - Really Great 4.5
It confuses me why The Box has such mixed reviews. Some say it’s good, while others say it’s bad. To me, Richard Kelly didn’t top Donnie Darko, but he definitely got me here. The Box has this indescribable creepy atmosphere, which is part of the reason I love this movie. Although it is based off the Twilight Zone episode, “Button Button”, I really feel The Box is quite an original movie. I say go see it, but only if you like bizarre and mind f***ing movies.

Regarding izzio’s Review
I missed this movie somehow. Anything with Frank Langella is worth checking out.
