    The setup of this movie reminds me of Locke with Tom Hardy. That’s also basically a movie where you watch 1 person in a static situation (in a car in Locke) conducting remote project management. I’d have never expected a full movie to work with that setup, but Locke pulls it off imo.

      There was a whole movie with a guy in a box hoping to be unearthed (Buried, or something like that). It was quite decent.

      I remember watching Fail Safe by chance and that movie was so fucking tense! Completely carried by the amazing cast. Maybe I should watch it again!

      It’s about a cold war situation where iirc the USA bomb a city in Russia by accident and the movie / play is about how the two presidents negotiate to avoid all out nuclear war. Fantastic stuff.
