Good movie, quite intense. Can't say more without revealing too much.
If...
Ron dislikes a film = go out and buy it.
Ron loves a film = don't even rent.

    I was very impressed with the movie. It shows that even with extremely minimalist set, there can be a lot of depth, great cinematography, and it keeps you engaged the whole time. Very pleasantly surprised by Ryan Reynolds performance.

    Just watched this last night as well. I thought it was excellent.

    The minimalist set reminded me of Phone Booth, but I thought this movie was much better. One for the whole family (jk)!

    This is actually at the top of my Blockbuster queue. I've heard nothing but awesome things about it.
    I never had it like this where I grew up. But I send my kids here because the fact is you go to one of the best schools in the country: Rushmore. Now, for some of you it doesn't matter. You were born rich and you're going to stay rich. But here's my advice to the rest of you: Take dead aim on the rich boys. Get them in the crosshairs and take them down. Just remember, they can buy anything but they can't buy backbone. Don't let them forget it. Thank you.Herman Blume - Rushmore

    So I got around to watching this last night. I seriously can't shake it out of my head - as that had to be one of the most intense movies I have ever seen.

    I can't say if it has any replay value, as I can't imagine ever subjecting myself to that again. However, it was an amazing film and very well done considering its limitations.

    I didn't like it. Was interesting/intense the first ten minutes. Then I found it boring and predictable.

    I liked Phone Booth a lot better. Better performance, and really got me interested all the way through.

    Though Buried must have been the cheapest production ever.
