4.5 out of 10 Das Experiment
Tim from Cork, 25 Oct 2007
One of the most intense thrillers I've ever seen. Topped only by Straw Dogs for that sheer feeling of your heart about to pound out through your chest. Fascinating story very well told and brilliantly shot. German cinema on the rise again...

4.5 out of 10 Must See
Niall from Cork, 02 Jan 2008
Don't be turned off by the subtitles. This is a memorable, well-written, well-acted and highly plausible, psychological thriller on the subject of how readily human beings can turn tyrannical, given the circumstances.

Doesn't sound like a promising storyline at first, but you are quickly drawn in. Realistic, well acted and nicely paced. I recommend.

What's it about....
A drama based on a real experiment carried out in Palo Alto, California where a group of scientists gathered 20 people and had them carry out a psychological experiment for a cash reward. As part of the research project, the recruits were divided up into prisoners and guards. In a controlled penitentiary-like environment, "Prisoners" are incarcerated and ordered to obey the rules; "Guards" are instructed to keep order. They are thrown headfirst into a two-week long examination...
