Black Box is a very well-crafted film and, for much of its length, a compelling one.

| Original Score: 3.5/5 | Oct 30, 2021

Athie... sensitively navigates the film's games of identity hide and seek; he provokes our full sympathy, which the film then subverts and complicates with a decent second-act twist.

| Original Score: B- | Oct 14, 2020

"Black Box" has all the visual language of a cheap "Twilight Zone" knock-off.

| Original Score: C | Oct 13, 2020

There's almost a comatose nature to the film itself. I just wanted to electrify and wake it up.

Mamoudou Athie especially does a really good job with what turns out to be a really challenging role. He's what makes it interesting for me.

When you watch a debut like Black Box, you just know that the director is going to be around for a while.

| Original Score: 3/4 | Oct 7, 2020

While it never descends into the nightmare its premise threatens, Black Box is a solid thriller that benefits from strong performances and a screenplay packed with philosophical anguish.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Oct 7, 2020

It... brings some devilish ingenuity to its variations on "Memento" and other "who am I?" thrillers. And it adds to that something more rare: a genuine emotional potency.

The film ruminates on how virtuality infiltrates the deepest regions of our subconscious to reprogram the inner workings of the self.

| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Oct 7, 2020

Makes you wonder if Blumhouse is using its 온라인카지노추천 arm as a dumping ground for concepts that don't quite make the cinematic cut.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Oct 5, 2020

The confident storytelling keeps you watching, as well as strong performances from Mamoudou Athie as a widowed amnesiac and Phylicia Rashad as a brilliant brain specialist playing God.
