The Box



  Product Description

Push a red button on a little black box, get a million bucks cash. Just like that, all of Norma (Diaz) and Arthur Lewis's (Marsden) financial problems will be over. But there's a catch, according to the strange visitor (Lagella) who placed the box on the couple’s doorstep. Someone, somewhere – someone they don't know – will die. Cameron Diaz and James Marsden play a couple confronted by agonizing temptation yet unaware they're already part of an orchestrated an – for them and us – mind-blowing chain of events.

What would you do if you were asked this question - push this button and a person dies but you will receive a million dollars?

I was ready to be emotionally pushed and pulled, torn and wrenched, screamed and crying. I did the washing up.

I cannot deny the beauty of some of the cinematography but the story as a whole was disappointing.  The beauty was reminiscent of some of the 'mind scenes' in The Cell - a beautiful movie.
