Black Box - La scatola nera

At least PARALLAX VIEW or ALL PRESIDENTS MEN have certainly inspired this kind of atmosphere, so rare in the French film industry. Or THE CONVERSATION, directed by Francis Coppola. This is a tremendous film, as LE CHANT DU LOUP was too; daring, powerfully directed, accurate, very well documented, a story about suspicion, plot, paranoia, conspiracy, disturbing by the way, but riveting. Excellent ending.

I am not surprised that this movie does not get the recognition it deserves. They don't make movies like this anymore. Nowadays, a movie like BLACK BOX may be considered as boring.

This modern perception does not change the fact that this is a good movie. A political drama-thriller that deserves a greater audience. It will not get it because the majority of the people are cynical and apathetic.

Still, there are a lot of people who will enjoy it. It is not one of the best movies in this genre, but that doesn't say much. It remains as a breathe of fresh air in modern movies industry.

A successful French film that uses suspense, action and suspense very well. I watched with great curiosity and tension until the end, especially the voices and sounds heard from the black box and the silence following these noises made me very nervous. I didn't expect the movie to be that good.

Greetings from Lithuania.

I really enjoyed "Black Box" (2021) for its being a good mystery thriller. The premise was solid as well as storytelling. It worked as a good mystery story, and i liked the ending and revelation.

Acting was solid especially by a lead man. Directing and especially editing was on spot because storytelling was pretty fast paced and intense considering that this movie at its run time 2 h 5 min. Is basically a drama - there isn't really any action in here. And at those 2 h and 5 min i was really involved and engaged in a story until the very end.

Overall, "Black Box" is a solid mystery, detective drama with a bit of a unique premise - set in a aviation world. Recommended.

That's how the saying goes, right? And why wouldn't it - on the other hand, does it specify which truth and who it does set free? Those are important details - especially when it comes to a thriller and truth finding that may not be in the interest for some people.

Intense and very well told, this has great actors and great twists and turns to boast about. It will take you on a ride and go in different directions with you. Interesting choice in the end - whatever you may think of it. Overall I liked it - light but yet still full of surprises and heaviness of sorts.
