Cameron Diaz opens The Box
July 15, 2010 |13:24 | Gossips By : Team X
"The Box" Cameron Diaz and James Marsden have a moral dilemma: Press a button on a mysterious container and they'll get $1 million, but someone they don't know will die. What button, on whose box, did writer-director Richard Kelly push to get the money to make this awful, preposterous thriller? Diaz and Marsden play a couple offered the box, button and deal described above by a grotesquely disfigured stranger (Frank Langella).
Adapting this mess from a Richard Matheson story that was the basis of a 1980s "Twilight Zone" episode, Kelly roams ponderously beyond that tale's snappy ending, into an installment of "The X-Files" in its post-Mulder death throes, when the show turned to rot.
