I love this movie so much

Excellent and certainly provocative... If nothing else, the film is a real conversation starter.

There are moments in this movie where the great movie it could've been peek out... They're fleeting, here, but they're worth savoring, and they happen often enough to make it worth your while.

All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

The idea behind this movie isn't that bad, but Cameron Diaz overacts it completely. She isn't the right person to play a family mother who got moralic problems with making 1 million per sinful decision. It gets very bad at the end when the only thing you hear is her crying for minutes. As I said: Good idea, but a little more deepness and less overacting would have been nice.

After a night of watching transformers movies and cartoons I was ready for a serious movie. sadly I was disapointed. not only does this film fall short in explosions and slow motion leaping through the air away from an explosion scenes, but it also falls short in the giant robots exploding and explosions shot out of exploding robot guns departments. I thought for sure the box would eventually transform into an exploding robot, but its just a stupid box for the whole movie. there was one scene where I was certain that cameron diaz was going to say "ROBOTS IN DISGUISE....BEEP BOOP BOOP" then transform into a motorbike and leap through the air in slow motion through an explosion. didnt happen. if you are thinking of watching this movie I would strongly suggest you save your money and rent a transformers movie instead.

The Box presents its protagonists, married couple Norma and Arthur Lewis (Cameron Diaz and James Marsden), with a moral dilemma: push the button on the mysterious box delivered to their doorstep and they will get a cool $1million, but someone they don't know will die. The pair struggle with their conscience, and then do exactly what I imagine many of us would do in a heartbeat: press that sucker and collect the cash. Yeah, baby — show me the money!Of course, things don't prove that easy for the couple: having made their decision and taken the dosh, it transpires that they were being tested by higher beings (aliens) who are using the box as a means to decide if the human race is altruistic enough to be allowed to continue. The Lewis's apparently bad decision condemns them to a hellish retribution that ultimately leads to a decision far more difficult than pushing a mere button.Anyone who has seen and been thoroughly confused by director Richard Kelly's cult classic Donnie Darko will no doubt be equally as perplexed by this pretentious, self-indulgent mess that had plenty of potential (it's based on a story by the excellent Richard Matheson), but which winds up being far less intriguing than its initial premise suggests. Matter transporting columns of water, a creepy bell-ringing Santa, and drone-like characters controlled by aliens ensue, none of which makes a lick of sense. If you're ever faced with the dilemma of watching The Box or not, I hope this review has made it easier for you to come to a decision.

I love Cameron Diaz and really like James Marsden. But this movie was just wacky. All these weird situations and people which made it very hard to follow - there didn't seem to be any logic.If there is any message to be taken away from this film, I would suggest that it is: Don't do bad stuff.In addition, do not waste your time sitting through this film.
