A young woman walks the streets of a foreign city - her mind full of pain, no memory of who she is and plagued by nightmarish visions. She meets a man who also has no memory. Forced to trust each other, the two feel a mysterious connection - a strong powerful feeling that bonds the two together. Unknown to them, their every action is being guided by unseen forces from the dark underground shadows of the city. They are part of a frightening experiment, an experiment with terrifying and shocking consequences. There is no escape in this dark psychological thriller.

NOT the Stanford experiment movie!!
First of all, I want to warn you about the reviews on this movie. This is not, I repeat it is NOT about the Stanford Prison Experiment. All those talking about their PSYCH class, or Prison Experiment, are reviewing the wrong movie!!!So be warned: those big star reviews are about a completely different film . This is a one maybe a two star movie at best .Okay..here is my review of this Eastern European based film.Have you ever watched a movie... Like all the way to the end... For some reason hoping that it's going to actually get good?. But of course it doesn't. you can tell that it every single interval in the movie. You can tell that it wasn't going to get any better. But for some reason, whether it's the idea of the movie, or the name, or the actors, you just felt like maybe, just maybe, it was going to be okay. Yeah, well this movie is like that. It does NOT get any better. So, if you don't believe me, watch the first 10 or 15 minutes and if you find yourself wondering "is this going to get any better", just turn it off. Because I promise it does not get better.

Not enough 4:20's in a year to make this movie good!
So, I just wasted about 45 min. of my life I'll neve get back. Listen folks I watch movies...all kinds. I can sit though just about anything. The reason being, I'm compulsive about finishing. Stories, movies, no matter how bad I have to finish it. This movie is the first exception to that compulsion. Wow it was bad guys.....I don't even know where to start. But I knew when to stop. Don't waste precious moments in your life....watch another movie.

Painful to watch
Painful to watch. Because it sort of leads you to believe it can get decent, but really does not. Some of the acting was OK. A lot of the acting was pretty lousy. The story was very contrived and overdone. A recommended movie for Prime. I really think they should choose ones not so sub par. My advice is to pick something else, unless you are in need of something to study for what is not good.

Average movie plot with an above average starring cast
The story is interesting. The beginning is a little slow but that careful examination of the characters is important to fully appreciate the experiment. (Except the part Maggie Grace plays...I still don't get the significance of her character.)While the plot is somewhat predictable, I was invested to see exactly how things panned out so I stayed until the end. I've seen better and I've seen worse. It's an average film with an above average cast in Brody and Whitaker.

Damaged goods
I liked that I received my order when it was said that it may arrive, but once I started to watch this movie, it played for about 10 minutes and then it kept jumping back to the beginning. I also like when I contacted the supplier, they apologized and gave me a refund of my money.

Avoid this
Stupid movie which is utterly implausible, with terrible dialogue. Apparently no one in Prague knows how to call the police, for example when a woman is found unconscious in the road or when a screaming woman is being accosted. Acting isn't very good either.

I cant believe anyone would rate this movie high!
I don't know how this movie averaged 4 stars. The movie is awful. No character development, terrible acting, very thin plot, abrupt ending...

Disappointing!
This started out fairly good...but the ending was disappointing to say the least. How could this movie get 5 stars?? I just spent my time on a movie that I'll never get back.It only warrants one star if that!! Thumbs down. Don't waste your time!!

Good if you don't mind violence
In my opinionthe plot is a bit far fetched but that is not the point: 26 men take part in a research project during which they act as inmates and guards in a simulated state prison. This is a situation in which things just cannot run smoothly and violence erupts. Good acting above all by Adrien Brody: brilliantly broody (with a great body!) or brutally violent. How does it end? Well, you'll see ...

No where near as good as the German version!!
I bought this film as I wished to see Hollywood's interpretation on a fantastic German film. However I wished I hadn't now!! This film is totally different from the German version and no where near as good!! There are to many loop holes in this film and I think the acting in this film is pretty poor (even though it had Adrien Brody in it!)Total waste of money, if you wish to see this film then BUY THE GERMAN VERSION!!!!!

für Jeden, der mit Menschen zu tun hat ... absolut Empfehlenswert
für Jeden, der mit Menschen zu tun hat ... absolut Empfehlenswert, man kann immer den Machtmissbrauch oder die Willkür durchbrechen, besonders wenn man Hilfe von Außen hat. Und man kann immer helfen. Man muss kein Opfer alleine lassen und man muss auch selbst nicht zum Opfer werden. Sehr empfehlenswert, um schwachen Persönlichkeiten, die lieber andere foltern, beleidigen oder mobben, als sich klein und unbedeutend zu fühlen. Jeder kann den Spiegel vorgehalten bekommen, und Jeder kann zu respektvollem Verhalten zurück kehren. Sehr Empfehlenswert !!!!

Die US Version von dem deutschen Experiment mit Moritz Bleibtreu
Ich mag keine deutschen Filme , ich hasse sie geradezu .Aber das Experiment mit Moritz Bleibtreu hat mich damals schon gefesselt .Also musste ich mir auch diese Version hier aus Amerika anschauen , und muss (bitter) zugeben : Die deutsche Version ist besser !Hier geht es zwar um die gleiche Story , aber es entsteht keine richtige beklemmende Atmosphäre .Trotzdem ein spitzen Film ! Schau ich mir immer wieder mal an .

The Experiment
I got this movie after I discovered it was written, produced & directed by the genius behind Prison Break Paul T Scheuring.The two leads are brilliant, and it was clear from this film how they were both Oscar winners.A couple of the scenes were brutal, overall a good movie, not the best I've ever seen, but I'm glad I bought it.

gute rollenverteilung
ein cooler film, mal was anderes. den deutschen vorgänger mit bleibtreu hab ich leider verschlafen. trotzdem exzellentes schauspiel von whitaker
E**E
Okay.
Das hier vorhandene Remake der deutschen Fassung ist um einiges schlechter als das Original. Wer einen wirklich guten Film will sollte lieber zum Original mit Moritz Bleibtreu greifen. Falls man den Deutschen Film bereits gesehen hat ist dieser hier dann aber doch ganz in Ordnung, weil man sich einige Informationen dazu denken kann.
