Based on Josh Malerman's acclaimed 2014 novel of the same name, Bird Box is coming to Netflix on December 21st following a limited theatrical release on December 13th, and a new trailer promises a tense tale of survival, love, and unfathomable fear.

Snagged this yesterday. I plan on watching tonight. What did you think? Looks fantastic. I'm typically game with anything that has John Malkovich in it.

The beginning fitst half was tension filled. And the premise is solid. It could have been much better. But still worth a watch. I'll give it a 3 of 5 Stars.

I'll give this film 3 out of 5 too.

Too many plot holes for me to give any more.

But isn’t this movie basically a copy of A Quiet Place?

I may be mistaken, but seems like it based on the trailers.

The movie supposedly took place in Marin County (near Sausalito) where many wealthy people dwell in the Bay Area... it wouldn't be surprising to see even the most unreliable car ever made to stay in a well maintained shape around these parts of North Bay Area.

It's just a joke, lol. Just as much as there are many idiosyncrasies about the E60 M5.

Of course, but if you want to discuss film inaccuracies, then the E65 probably wasn't it. How about:

1. How did a 54-year old Sandra Bullock manage to get pregnant, and without a daddy at that?

2. How did Tom (Trevante Rhodes) maintain a fresh hair lineup for 5 long years?

3. On the way to the supermarket, the parking sensors on the SUV they were in went off while in Drive -- the scene even showed "PARKING SENSORS" on the navigation screen.

Movie started out good and caught my interest. but half way through I started losing interest until Sandra caught the couple banging in the laundry room. but than I lost interest again.

Stated out great and then turned into a shitty version of "The Road". I also didn't like any of the characters with the exception of John Malchovics and the black solider dude.

Watch The Road if you want a decent post apocalyptic film.

Horrible movie, should sue Netflix for wasting 2 hours of my life. It's like they couldn't afford writers so they just made a 2 hour long trailer that has absolutely no story at all.

Saw this on the news this morning. We are truly a nation of idiots. Darwins theory at it's finest.
