Box 507 (2002)
Director: Enrique Urbizu
Movie review
From Time Out Film Guide
An enjoyable, if far-fetched, even silly thriller predicated on the not so implausible notion of widespread corruption and criminal activity among the developers, bureaucrats and bigwigs down on the Andalusian riviera. It starts well enough with a forest fire, a violent bank robbery and the discovery of incriminating papers in a safety deposit box. But the protagonist's transformation from mild-mannered bank manager to ruthless avenging angel taking on the Mob and everyone else is absurd. And the villainy is so over-egged that soon even the least likely misdemeanour is expected - or greeted with a 'so what?' Fast and fun, though.Author: GA
