Buried
Clever lighting, a whole bunch of extreme close-ups and a completely game Ryan Reynolds highlight Buried, a film that not only personifies “minimalist horror” but takes it to another—subterranean—level. While some “thriller” bullet points in the film seem to be pulled from thin air and too many obvious emotional tactics are employed, Buried still deserves credit for being film that convinces us that 95 minutes with Ryan Reynolds in box is time well-spent, just don’t try convincing me to do it again.
