Thrilling The First Time You Watch
Although most of the reviews said it was basically a boring mess . I liked it when i got into it . Its a smart story line too . It isn't that scary once you've watched it once . The first time you watch it , you wont be sure whats going to happen , which is why its a thriller . With the nose bleeds , it was actually kinda freaky because you dont know why its happening . Theres one scene thats kind of a jump scene , i say that because i had a little jump . Im not going to tell the people whos not seen it what scene it is or it'll ruin the feeling and suspense ( A Tip About The Scene : Its when a woman in a car acts strange and talks about 'looking in the light' to a guy . .

Fine
This movie had a good idea that could've been developed into a crazy action film that got good reviews except the makers/writers took a wrong turn and turned it into a random mess. The first half of the film was very good, despite Cameron Diaz's southern accent (which was laughable), then it just turned random. A lot of it should've been taken out, I sat there wondering if they had an editor. But I did like the ending I thought that was good.

Suggested MPAA Rating: PG-13 for mature thematic material, some violence, disturbing images, and some brief mild language.

Point of the movie:
What the movie was about: Dumb*** CSM won't let me put in html tags, so just go on wikipedia. -- Warning: SPOILERS! Don't read it if you didn't see it yet. (And are planning on seeing it. If you didn't understand it, wikipedia makes perfect sense.

biggest disapointment ever!!!
The box a movie starring Cameron Diaz was said to be a scary thriller about a strange box that kills people in return for 1 million dollors. But instead all i got was a boring movie with not one bit of thrill in it. The box left you hanging at the end with many questions but no answers. The box also had very mild vilonce, no thrill, and most of it was just plan confusing. Just take my words for it and even bother with this poorly made movie about a box that just sits there with no action or thrill.

Boring
I don't know if I've ever seen a worse thriller/horror movie. It's so confusing for anyone, the story is also very in-consistant on many levels. More importantly it doesn't have any spice to it. It's just a boring story.

i rate this title IFFY for 13+
What to watch out for * Messages: Despite the movie's overwhelmingly negative message about humans being more selfish than selfless, Norma and Arthur's actions ultimately prove that as parents, at least, they have enough unconditional love for their child to be completely self-sacrificing. * Role models: Despite their decision to hit the "button unit," Norma and Arthur are repentant and remorseful about their actions and go to great lengths to try to right their wrongs. They never spend any of the money they "won" and instead try to track down the many mysteries surrounding the strange offer they were given. * Violence: The entire movie is based on a violent premise: Couples must decide whether to sentence someone they don't know to death and win $1 million or to pass up the lucrative offer. There's also gun violence, scenes that feature two dead women, a kidnapped child, and other bizarre, disturbing goings on. One of the main characters is horribly disfigured in the face, and another protagonist is missing almost all of the toes on her foot. Characters often have strange nose bleeds and act creepily in general. … * Sex: A married couple embraces several times, exchanges longing looks, and kisses passionately. * Language: On the milder side -- one use of "s--t," plus "h--l," "d--n," "stupid," and "Jesus" used as an exclamation. * Consumerism: Corvette, Jack Daniels, and JVC are all seen. * Drinking, drugs, & smoking: Adults drink wine, cocktails, and champagne at a rehearsal dinner and reception. Arthur says he "needs a drink" and has a glass of whisky.

 
Made no sense at all.
I watched this two days ago and have no idea what it was about. It started out really interesting - a couple finds a box delivered on their doorstep with a button on it. If they push the button, they win a million dollars and someone they don't know will die. Of course, they push it (it would have been a shorter and sweeter movie if they didn't), but then things turn from interesting to just really bizarre. By the end of the movie, I neither knew nor cared what happened to any of the characters. It was the most convoluted mess I've watched since....well, since I can remember.

Don't watch if you want to have all of the characters live happily ever after
This film is very odd. It is all about the couple Norma and Arthur making all of the wrong decisions. It is a little scary and made me jump quite a bit. Above it says that this is to complicated for teens but I am 12 and understood it. However this doesn't mean I enjoyed due to a horrible twist at the end that wasn't needed and ruined the film even though it wasn't that good to start with.

not for kids.
i think that it should be watched in a good mood to concentrate, you would have to watch this film a few times to figure it out.
