I appreciate the originality. It takes some guts to have 90 minutes of a guy in a box, even if it is Ryan Reynolds. The 90 minutes goes pretty fast without getting boring, which is a feat in itself. It's not especially rewatchable unless a lot of time has passed though.

How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A relentless 95-minute descent into psychological and physical terror as a man fights for survival in absolute darkness with dwindling resources. The coffin becomes a pressure cooker of panic, desperation, and the raw will to live.
