Look at that poster. Lots of people seem to love this movie. Just look at all of them. They're falling all over themselves to praise this movie. But I bet this movie didn't play at your theater.
That's strange, isn't it? Why would this movie, which by the looks of the poster is fantastic, not show up in wide release, especially if it's brilliant?
Because it sucks, that's why.
Ryan Reynolds wakes up trapped in a coffin. All he has with him is a mystery cell phone(?) which works(??) as long as he moves around the coffin to find the spot where the signal is best(??!??!!). And it just gets dumber from there.
I spent the whole movie wondering who had ever told the screenwriter this was a good script. It's sort of a good idea - for a TV movie of the week in 1975, where it would have been 70 minutes long and not trying to make some grand, topical statement(Bad idea). Plus, TV movies in 1975 would have been able to get a better actor than Ryan Reynolds. If your whole movie is a one man show by Ryan Reynolds, it's time to quit. Save yourself the pain, and stay away from this horrible film.
