The lo-fi surreality of "Black Box" blossoms with an excellent and twisty third act, one that playswith the confines of this science but also adds gripping nuances about memory and identity. Nolan's memories of being a father and a husband are not just the good ones, and the script earns painful moments you might have never thought it would go for when you first hit Play. It’s an exhilarating type ofsci-fi indie that sets its own rules, and by the climax you’re following along as it reaches grandiose themes on its own terms. If you described certain scenes out of context, it would be incredibly confusing; in Osei-Kuffour Jr.'s confident hands, they're like bizarre bits of theaterthat further show how unique "Black Box" is.
It takes a special mix of ingenuity and daring to actualize a project like this, something that Osei-Kuffour Jr.'sunmistakable influence and inevitable peer Chris Nolan, has proven in the past.When you watch a debut like “Black Box,” you just know that the director is going to be around for a while.
