Open your eyes. You're in a closed space beneath 2500 pounds of soil. You have 90 mins of oxygen left to breathe. Your only connection to the outside world is a mysterious cell phone with limited reception & battery life.
Brilliant, tense, gripping throughout. You will probably wonder how this film, with just a single actor, shot entirely from inside the coffin, can hold your attention. Well it does - a real, slick, edge of your seat thriller. And for anyone who has ever had the misery of repeatedly put on hold on by automatic telephone answering services or call centres - this one's for you too! Undoubtedly my top cinema experience of 2010.

Paul Conroy is not ready to die. But when he wakes up 6 feet underground with no idea of who put him there or why, life for the truck driver and family man instantly becomes a hellish struggle for survival. Buried with only a cell phone and a lighter, his contact with the outside world and ability to piece together clues that could help him discover his location are maddeningly limited. Poor reception, a rapidly draining battery and a dwindling oxygen supply become his worst enemies in a tightly confined race against time - fighting panic, despair and delirium, Paul has only 90 minutes to be rescued.
Rodrigo Cortes directs this claustrophobic suspense thriller. Ryan Reynolds stars as Paul Conroy, an American driver contracted to deliver supplies to soldiers in Iraq. After an attack by an Iraqi resistance group, Paul wakes to find himself buried alive inside a coffin with only his mobile phone and a cigarette lighter. With only 90 minutes' worth of oxygen between him and certain death, Paul's worst enemies become intermittent reception and a rapidly draining battery as he engages in a desperate and tightly-confined battle for survival.
