"The Box" might remind you why you love suspense and hate suspense at the same time. Richard Kelly’s film keeps you in suspense until you are pleading with it to tell you more.

But the mind-teasing conundrum of this uncommonly weird studio movie teeters dangerously to the point of not wanting it to be so damn ambiguous.
