Anthony Peterson (Ron Thompson) is a millionaire who has been kidnapped and inside a shipping container that is not moving. He has a phone in order to raise his own ransom, no police etc. So for over an hour, we watch only one person on the screen as he talks to people on the phone. The script was sophomoric with an inane attempt at creating drama with bad dialogue.
Now if we didn't have to listen to the idiot at the other end of the phone, and say had Bob Newhart do the talking...
"Are you okay? Oh, you took some acid. But it was light blotter just to calm your nerves...I see how this is going to end already "
Or...
"You're going to kill my wife? Um, which wife is this? You could have taken my ex-wife."
That would have been much more entertaining, leaving the other end of the conservation a blank.
"Sully? You know you're dead. That doesn't matter to you, you wanted to call me just to laugh at me. "
Is there an instructor at film school making its students "write and submit a bad one-person script and see if you can get funding?"
Guide: F-word. No sex or nudity. There was a discussion of gang rape.
