OXYGEN (OXYGÈNE) (full review at Screen Realm)

Oxygen is a tense and claustrophobic thriller from French director Alexandre Aja. After an effectively disorientating opening, full of flashing red alarms and jarring images, we find Liz Hansen (Mélanie Laurent) awakening inside a cryogenic pod, unsure of how she got there and barely able to remember a thing.

She quickly discovers she has been revived because of a system malfunction, leaving her with approximately 40 minutes of oxygen and no way to open the pod. So Liz finds herself in a race against time, to escape the cryogenic pod before the air runs out.

And that is about as much as we can say about it. In terms of this review, Oxygen is what we movie reviewers like to call ‘a bloody nightmare’ (that’s a technical term) because there is almost nothing that can be revealed about the story without giving away something significant.
