Kevin W To Slow of a Movie and Ended Terribly!!! Rated 1/5 Stars •  Rated 1 out of 5 stars 05/31/25 Full Review r96 s 'Buried' mostly delivers, the ending is what makes me definitively say that I had a positive time. The film does build tension nicely, it feels claustrophobic without a doubt. It is also paced competently, impressively so given its one location setting (credit to Ryan Reynolds). The only criticism I hold is that the film makes the lead character kinda unlikeable early on, which really shouldn't be the case given it ought to be a tap-in to make you care for Paul Conroy given the plot's nature. To me, in moments, he came across more dick-y than panicked. That kinda led me down the garden path in terms of predicting how it was going to all end, one on my (half-baked) theories was that it was going to head in a 'Butterfly on a Wheel'-esque (great movie, fwiw) direction. It didn't, of course, but the unpredictability was satisfying. I'm perhaps being harsh or was overanalysing with the unlikability factor. Either way, it doesn't really matter all that much because I still think of this in a good way post-watch. Well worth seeing. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/13/25 Full Review I Am F Good Ryan Reynolds performances and it's thrilling enough. Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/10/25 Full Review Emil P Otherwise really good but I didn't like the ending. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/31/25 Full Review Alex S The suspense builds in this film that revolves around the common fears of claustrophobia and being buried alive. Given one of Ryan Reynolds’ most dramatic performances, Buried easily keeps you on the edge of your seat. For cinephiles, it’s an appealing movie experience, but not for all general audiences. Grading: C+ Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/24/25 Full Review Cleveland E It was a great acting feat for Ryan Reynolds, but as a movie you’d enjoy, it failed to measure up and his competent acting skills were very much wasted. It never coalesced into any kind of meaningful story or plot. Was hoping there would be some enlightened lessons learned from his predicament that would highlight good guys or bad guys, but in this case, there was no magic behind the curtain - just some placement ads for a cell phone, a lighter and an overpriced watch.
