Buried


Today is the first day of fashion week and I missed it. Well I really didn't have plans of seeing the kids show for 1 reason, the used to be BM of one of the brands I handle is with SM kids department. Second, I'm not so much into kids wear coz Im not a kid anymore. make sense?

Anyway, I went straight to Megamall from work to catch the premiere of BURIED. Tonight was KIMERALDs new movie premiere as well. My ratings of the movie? so so. Probably because I was expecting some entertainment but it all it gave me was stress. It could be just the way the director wants the viewers to feel. They say a movie is effective if you see yourself in it or you feel how the actors feel. 90 minutes is a long time to see an all bruised Ryan Reynolds in a wooden coffin with just a blackberry, a lighter, a flashlight, a glow stick, a pencil, a paper with scribbles and a snake trying his best to stay alive and get help, shifting from one emotion to the next.
Though there were dragging moments in the middle of the movie where you wana just go to sleep or leave the theater. The repetitive ranting, moaning and cussing were very annoying too. Ryan is hot but his character is not.
"Buried" reflected how vulnerable a human being is and how emotions can drive a person mad.It also involves political and social bureaucracy I may not be able to expound. You wanna know how the movie ended? well you have to spend 90 minutes of suffocating, clautrophobic experience to know.
