Dude i watched this movie as well last night on BBC2 and i have to say it was really disturbing :shock: The cast was very good, especially the sadistic guard and the guy who appears in Run Lola Run as well. Definitely a must see movie.

Re:: The Experiment

The film is quite good, but the acting was bad, and the film went so ridiculous and unbelievable at the end! So it was not bad

Looks interesting. Never heard of this movie. Maybe I try to check it out.

Yeah, I saw this about a year and a half ago. Great beginning, but the ending gets a bit too over the top and sort of runs out of gas. It was nice seeing the boyfriend from Run Lola Run flexing a bit of acting muscle though.

Re:: The Experiment

I think I saw a special on the Discovery channel, or one of those channels, about this. Are you talking about the experiment where some students got picked to be mock prisoners and some mock guards, and a few mock guards let the power go to their heads?

It's a german film based on idea of the Stanford experiment (what you're describing) back in 1971.

Re: The Experiment

Hos...i believed that the greeks you've been hangin out with have teached you of good movies ;)...:)

ofcourse one of the films a man must see... puts you in lots of thoughts!!!!!!!!!!

Re: The Experiment

just finished watching this. great great great movie. there are a few points in the movie where you think to yourself "can the guards really be that stupid for a game?", but imo the story and acting were spot on.

this one gets 5 pickles from me. great movie... watch it asap.

Re: The Experiment

Loved the movie, very intense - the end is a bit too much but the movie progressively puts you in the mind of the characters, quite scary. check also the details of the Milgram experiment
