Bullock box

Rating: 8/10 (18 December 2018)

When I heard that the adaption of the Novel BIRD BOX by Josh Malerman will star Sandra Bullock, I was a bit conflicted with the idea. Sandra is a great actress no doubt in that, but I thought she would not be convincing enough.
I saw BIRD BOX yesterday and I can gladly assure you that this is the best performance by her in a long time. Specially a scene where she emotionally breaks down in the end. The director has competently crafted this movie into a taut thriller that will never bore you in its 124 minutes runtime. There are some good old suspenseful moments in there. The best part of this movie apart from Bullock's performance is that it never gets boring or repetitive. There are some time jumps that raise some plot holes and plausibility issues. Also some decisions certain characters take are dumb. The performances all over the board are brilliant though. The children gave good performances too just somethings they did were odd. The pacing was good too. One problem some people might come up with will be regarding the entities or the creatures. It did not bother me much. Overall the movie was entertaining enough for me to like it.
