5.0 out of 5 stars Favorite movie, sent as described
The movie arrived as described. The outer case wasn't perfect, but the disc inside was in pristine condition and didn't have a single scratch on it. I played the DVD on my computer, which doesn't always work for DVDs. I feel like some older movies only play well in DVD players. This worked fine on my HP laptop. Shipping was rather fast. Great job.Without giving away too much of the movie (I hate spoilers):As far as the movie goes, this is a dark, brilliant movie that could potentially be seen as a subtle sadomasochistic romance. Or maybe I'm just sick. Either way, this drama movie has been my favorite movie for 18 years. The story has an intense opening scene. There are high stakes involved. There are many fears that are capitalized on (both physical and emotional fears). The two main characters have a fierce connection. That tension can be felt through the screen. Just when you think something's gonna happen in this movie, there's a twist or an extra layer (or an extra body) thrown into the mix. I feel like this movie doesn't get enough credit.Definitely worth watching at least once.
5.0 out of 5 stars WOW - WHAT A MOVIE
I bought this movie because it starred Maura Tierney. Maura was a favorite nurse (and later an MD) on the hit TV series ER. I just wanted to see what else she had done. She was great in this movie, almost better than she was on ER. This is supposed to be a scary movie, but since I do not scare easily it did not have that effect on me. Rather, it disgusted me, and brought forth a lot of angry emotions. That is the sign of good acting. I would recommend it to those who are Maura Tierney fans, or those who want to see some really fine acting.
4.0 out of 5 stars Clever Character Adrien Brody
This Movie although it has a little weak acting at times, the Adrien Brody acting and character dialogue is both Clever and Masterful. The Movie also has a strong Female Character for the Girlfriends or Wives to enjoy. On the overall I enjoyed it and so did my girlfriend. I would recommend this movie to anyone who enjoys subtle word play and underlying twists.
5.0 out of 5 stars Oxygen Rules!!
This was an awesome movie. I love it when Adrien plays CREEPY!! He is AWESOME!! If you're a fan of Adrien, DEFINITELY add this DVD to your collection.
3.0 out of 5 stars Tierney and Brody are Great, The Movie is Just Okay!!
It's been a long time since I've seriously blind bought a DVD or video. I normally go the rental way. But as I was passing through ... I stumbled upon this interesting film. It was called OXYGEN. I later discovered it was made for Showtime Television, as an original movie. I can see why, it's a potentially taught thriller, that's half realized.Maura Tierney (Scotland PA) stars as Madeline Foster, a New York City Cop with a few humiliating secrets. Adrien Brody, (The Pianist) is Harry, a psychopath who has buried a women (Laila Robins, True Crime) alive in an elaborate extortion plot. When Harry refuses to talk to anyone but Foster, these two lives are caught in a dangerous cat and mouse game, and a women's life is at stake.For what it's worth this is a well thought out thriller here. The elements are there to create a taught and fairly compelling cat and mouse game. But as the pieces fall into place, you realize its foundation is a house of cards and in the end everything is a little forced.I think the biggest problem is that Brody's character knows too much. He puts two and two together far faster than even the audience does. For instance, he notices cigarette burns on Foster's arm. Instantly he jumps to a conclusion, that while true, takes a leap far to big for it's own good.Tierney's character doesn't fare much better. The screenplay by Writer/Director Richard Shepard (The Linguini Incident) is too vague about her. Creating tension that goes nowhere. She's fighting demons of course, but does she do it for Alcohol? To give into some crazy fetish? Since the movie only makes a feeble attempt to sort out her problems, it falls flat. Every explanation comes from Harry's mouth a man she's never met before and I don't think he's that bright.But on a positive note, Tierney and Brody are excellent in their roles. Even if I didn't buy the premise, those two actors are just so damn watchable. Tierney is like the girl next door with edge, the camera loves her, and she's so good at everything I've ever seen her do. I like how her performance transcends the material. She brings it all up a notch, something that a lesser actress would struggle with. Her performance reveals a woman who is struggling, even if the struggles are a little trite and silly.Furthermore, Brody makes a great psycho. I liked everything about his character. I love how there is never a moment that he feels cornered. He runs the show at every minute. Like Harry Houdini (in which the story makes frequent reference too), Brody's character is an escape artist, with a sarcastic edge. In a better film this kind of character could win him an Oscar. Hmm.... I wonder if they ever did Hannibal Lecter: The Early Years, if they would consider hiring Brody? He's that good here.OXYGEN is a half realized but watchable film. It wears its flaws on its sleeve. But it also has two really great performances in it. So do I recommend you see it? If you're nit-picky like me, than you probably won't like it. If you can give a movie its due despite it's many flaws, than yes.*** out of 5

お互いにいなくてはならないと感じさせる所
初めて出逢った瞬間のシーンから惹きつけられます!そこから物語が進むに連れて互いに無くてはならない存在になっていくので是非ともそういうのが好きな方は見てみて欲しいです！
Excellent little gem!!
Excellent little gem of a film that deserves to be better known. Adrien Brody plays a kidnapper who buries a rich man's wife for the ransom of $1 million. Having been caught he insists on talking only to the police officer, Maura Tierney, whom he sees responsible for his capture. With time running short, to save the buried woman, Tierney finds herself being drawn into Brody's twisted mind games. Adrien Brody is well cast and gives a memorable performance; Maura Tierney, i think, gives a simply magnificent performance as the officer with dark secrets of her own. I rate her performance among the best anyone's given in recent years.
