Buried is the story of a truck driver hired by the US Army (Ryan Reynolds) to drive supplies in Iraq. He is ambushed by terrorists and wakes up inside a coffin with the instructions that if he calls people to get him a million dollars he will be let go. It sounds like quite a intense movie, and that it is. The ENTIRE movie is him trying to survive in the coffin. While losing air and trying to convince people by phone his story, his fight for survival is agonizing. He must go against the forces of nature such as snakes crawling in the coffin and making sure the dirt above doesn't collapse on him. The director does a good job with keeping us entertained with limited scenery. I thought the movie was alright, and give it a 2/5 rating.
