Something caught my eye in Saturday's Inquirer. Dave Hiltbrand's review of "the Box," ("Press button, make movie die"), ends with this sentence: [Cameron] Diaz and [james] Marsden don't make a very convincing couple, either. Though they're roughly the same age, his boyish face makes him look like he could be her little brother. If they didn't have good on screen chemistry, that's...

By Simon Abrams SPOILER WARNING IN EFFECT Regardless of how you feel about the film itself, the sticking point for The Box —mad scientist Richard Kelly’s latest oddity—is how well it succeeds as Kelly’s version of a mainstream, commercially viable bit of speculative fiction. Southland Tales , Kelly’s unjustly maligned sophomore experiment, was both viciously maligned by...

The Box starts with a concept that appeals to most people's love for mystery: an anonymous gift left on a suburban doorstep belonging to the Lewis family. Wrapped all in brown paper, it arrives just before the moment private school teacher Norma Lewis (Cameron Diaz) discovers her son's tuition will no longer be a discounted perk.

The tagline for this horror/thriller (which I will NOT be seeing by the way) is: You Are The Experience I pee’d a little when I read that it frightened me so much. The plot: A small wooden box arrives on the doorstep
