Black Button - Short Film

EvilBeatnikRecords Says:

Nov 21, 2009 - awesome job. i love how this 7 minute short is going to most likely be better than a 90 minute (probable) crapfest by richard kelly, who is a massive hack.

Nov 21, 2009 - Pretentious, over-conceived, shit acting by the young guy, ham-handed lines, dubious cuts.

MrPizzacatoMan Says:

Nov 21, 2009 - yeah your right. Films are not just about money. Look at some of the multi-million plan Hollywood films, they are rubbish. All you need is creativity and good actors (as you said) and a plot which gets people thinking. All of which this film has.

Nov 21, 2009 - Acting of the younger guy was a bit meh the older man was pretty good and i didnt see the twist coming :)

Nov 21, 2009 - either its a fake or a remake of "the box" i dunno

Shameless0680 Says:

Nov 21, 2009 - this was made before the box, coincidence?

lordlong Says:

Nov 22, 2009 - Well not really. the plot was so obvious. the whole scene was obvious. Just makes u think why the guy is so stupid not to understand where he is.... But it was well made Ill give u that.

jokerman12321 Says:

Nov 23, 2009 - actually, the box isn't based on this, very similiar, the directors of that may have seen this, but not based at all.

Nov 24, 2009 - The lead in this sucks really bad.

Nov 24, 2009 - i saw this a few years ago and when i read the synopsis of the box this was the first thing that came to mind.

wrassling Says:

Nov 25, 2009 - I thought it was going to end withj him being unable to leave the room because the only way out was the key, which could only be obtained by refusing to perss the button. Instead it spiraled into a religious esque finale that, although deep in symbolism, was overall weak.

LeroyBinson2 Says:

Nov 25, 2009 - I just saw a trailer for the film "The Box" which seems to have pretty much the same plot...

vintivy Says:

Nov 25, 2009 - Pour ceux qui aiment les courts métrages je vous conseille " Bon retour de gattaca " à visionner! Et dispo sur youtube

jdpoel Says:

Nov 25, 2009 - "The Box" stole this short films plot? or have they bought it?

samuelleanos Says:

Nov 25, 2009 - Very nice!

m6mastro Says:
