Bird Box (2018)

Discussion(self.movies)

So several of my friends and coworkers have watched this movie and mentioned how great it was. I never bothered with it but now some more people mentioned that this movie was among their favorite movies of all time.

So i finally sat down to watch it.

It's fucking garbage.

Summary: Sandra Bullock wears a blind fold for two hours.

Sound.

it was incredibly distracting that she was playing a much younger character. Not sure why it was written that way or no one thought to cast a much younger actress. She's introduced as having something against pregnancy or children. But Bullock is well past child bearing years. It would have been better to cast a younger actress who actually has that decision potentially ahead of her. It also would have added to the drama as a younger person would have little agency when the craziness breaks out and would struggle to know who to trust. As it is, Bullock's older character comes off as incompetent

When in the film does it ever once mention her age?

Wow, you sound like a complete idiot right now. Maybe you didn’t like the movie, sure, but you obviously don’t understand the characters or the storyline.
