Yeah I thought it would be boring, considering it's about a guy trapped in a ditch for 90 minutes. I was definitely wrong. It was extremely engaging.

I thought the same thing, guy trapped in one location for the movie, forget about it. I didn't know it was by Danny Boyle, making me second guess writing this one off.

 

It's by the same guy that directed Slumdog Millionaire, a personal favorite of mine, Danny Boyle. Guy has struck gold twice. Add in James Franco, this is a recipe for success

 

Shit is crazy. I heard of the story a few years back when it happened.

The premise of a single location reminds me of Phone Booth and potentially the movie Buried which will be out sometime in 2011...though I don't know if Buried will be just a single location, but looks as if that will be the case. At any rate, I thought Phone Booth was a pretty decent movie, especially considering they guy spent nearly the entire movie inside a phone booth.

They said slumdog already. And, yea, Boyle is definitely one of the better directors around imho

Yeah. I had the opportunity to hear Aron speak in person and it was one of the more powerful experiences I can recall as a kid. I don't know if I want to go see the film because of how graphic the ending is.

I am permanently behind on PMs, it's not personal.
