Bird Box

"Following an unknown global catastrophe, in Bird Box a mother (Bullock) must flee with her children down a treacherous river in search of safety. But due to unseen deadly forces, the perilous journey must be made blindfolded."

"Malerman and screenwriter Eric Heisserer... have served up an inexplicably bland ensemble that even a talented cast can't render interesting."

"After such an amazing, awe-inspiring start, it's disappointing this thriller couldn't have thought a little more outside the box."

"With hints of "The Road," "A Quiet Place" and any number of zombie movies, this Netflix horror-thriller is appreciably bleak but also sluggish, never fully fleshing out the themes at the story's core."

"Bier's direction is coolly efficient, which fits the material to a t - anything more ostentatious would just feel wasteful."

"A wannabe shocker with a clever premise that doesn't really get down and dirty or betray the base instincts of a born horror filmmaker."
