Buried

Lists: Drama, Mystery, Thriller, Psychological Thrillers

Brief Synopsis: "Paul Conroy is not ready to die. But when he wakes up 6 feet underground with no idea of who put him there or why, life for the truck driver and family man instantly becomes a hellish struggle for survival. Buried with only a cell phone and a lighter, his contact with the outside world and ability to piece together clues that could help him discover his location are maddeningly limited. Poor reception, a rapidly draining battery, and a dwindling oxygen supply become his worst enemies in a tightly confined race against time-fighting panic, despair and delirium, Paul has only 90 minutes to be rescued before his worst nightmare comes true."

Jim Carrier86 - Excellent acting job by Ryan Reynolds. He's the only actor visible in the movie & I was never bored. He reels you in and it's an emotional roller coaster. A must watch...especially if you love cinema and great acting.
Bryan Lienesch84 - Simple yet complex. Familiar yet unique. Stagnant yet fully engrossing. There's no other way to say it: this is a one-of-a-kind treat in filmmaking.
