The Box

Feels like a parody of all bad crimeshows ever made - but sadly its not.. Ridicilous dialogue and a mumbling Peter Stormare to top it of.

So bad you actually need to see it!

Enjoyed Anna Friel as Marcella. This role is similar: The outsider cop accused of wrongdoing with mental health problems and a complicated private life. The character worked as Marcella, here not so much, seems Friel has no range. It is not clear why this Swedish production chose to use a host of British actors in a US setting. It is jarring, better to use this cast in the UK or get Americans.

Horror/suspense clichés are littered throughout the first two episodes (As much as I could stomach) - quirky camera angles, dark restricted colour-palette sets, jittery lighting ... This is not an intrinsic problem, but The Box has nothing else to recommend it.

Such a disappointment, this had the potential to be compelling viewing, but fails on every level.

Anna Friel should not have been involved in this.

That is my headline too.

What a s*it bargain.

Started bad, got worse, Then all went to c R A P.

No. No more of this.

Good and mediocre actors WILL not make it.

No.

It goes to the trash.

Sorry.

So slow and bad.... I actually saw 4 parts and hoped it would catch up. NOT !

Peter Stormare and his US accent is from a different planet 🤣. OMG Anna Friel was great in Marcella but this is just really really bad.

Alexander Karim is great and also the best actor in this, but not even he can save me from turning it of.

*Ok this is my first review, but there seems to be a lot of overly harsh feedback on this show.*

The show is incoherent. People giving this a 10 must be on drugs.

I love Ana Friel...and now I don't.

Those looking for a new show for entertainment, look elsewhere.

Sorry, but pretentiousness is not a good quality.
