170,000 SQ miles of desert. 90 minutes of Oxygen. No way out. Paul Conroy (Ryan Reynolds) is a fairly average, American truck driver, he works as a contractor in Iraq and leads a fairly average life, he doesn't know what's about to hit him! While working his usual deliveries he is taken hostage, knocked unconscious and awakens in a deep, dark coffin! He soon realises he is in real trouble. With little oxygen, a lighter and a mobile phone to help him, he tries whatever he can to escape his terrifying tomb. Paul contacts everyone he knows that could possibly help him, but to no avail; he could be buried anywhere in an enormous Iraqi desert. Paul realises that only one man can help him out of this impossible situation; himself! He'd better do it fast! (Icon Home Entertainment)
