BMW F22 · 12-16-2018, 02:30 PM

Not out until Dec 21 though. Are you streaming somewhere else other than netflix?

Based on Josh Malerman's acclaimed 2014 novel of the same name, Bird Box is coming to Netflix on December 21st following a limited theatrical release on December 13th, and a new trailer promises a tense tale of survival, love, and unfathomable fear.

Snagged this yesterday. I plan on watching tonight. What did you think? Looks fantastic. I'm typically game with anything that has John Malkovich in it.

The beginning fitst half was tension filled. And the premise is solid. It could have been much better. But still worth a watch. I'll give it a 3 of 5 Stars.

The0pportunist · 12-31-2018, 08:21 AM

I'll give this film 3 out of 5 too.

Too many plot holes for me to give any more.

The Libertine · 12-31-2018, 08:54 AM

But isn’t this movie basically a copy of A Quiet Place?

I may be mistaken, but seems like it based on the trailers.

IanMan · 01-02-2019, 12:15 AM

Feel free to add to the list.

FriedPiston · 01-02-2019, 12:31 AM

The movie supposedly took place in Marin County (near Sausalito) where many wealthy people dwell in the Bay Area... it wouldn't be surprising to see even the most unreliable car ever made to stay in a well maintained shape around these parts of North Bay Area.

It's just a joke, lol. Just as much as there are many idiosyncrasies about the E60 M5.

Of course, but if you want to discuss film inaccuracies, then the E65 probably wasn't it. How about:

1. How did a 54-year old Sandra Bullock manage to get pregnant, and without a daddy at that?

2. How did Tom (Trevante Rhodes) maintain a fresh hair lineup for 5 long years?

3. On the way to the supermarket, the parking sensors on the SUV they were in went off while in Drive -- the scene even showed "PARKING SENSORS" on the navigation screen.

Lmao at the hair! Wouldve loved to have seen an unkept fro later in the movie..

lsturbointeg · 01-02-2019, 09:18 PM

Movie started out good and caught my interest. but half way through I started losing interest until Sandra caught the couple banging in the laundry room. but than I lost interest again.

1MOREMOD · 01-02-2019, 09:33 PM

Yep, never really find out wtf I'd going on like the smoke monster on lost or some shit. Some people are carriers some like them and arent affected all, dumb.

bosstones · 01-02-2019, 11:25 PM

Agree with most....interesting premise but falls flat quickly.

Delta0311 · 01-02-2019, 11:43 PM

Stated out great and then turned into a shitty version of "The Road". I also didn't like any of the characters with the exception of John Malchovics and the black solider dude.

Watch The Road if you want a decent post apocalyptic film.

I thought it was terrible.

dreamingat30fps · 01-03-2019, 01:46 AM

Horrible movie, should sue Netflix for wasting 2 hours of my life. It's like they couldn't afford writers so they just made a 2 hour long trailer that has absolutely no story at all.

UncleWede · 01-03-2019, 11:52 AM

Sandra is 54??? Damn, she better not put no blindfold on around me unless she wants something bigger than a bird in her box
