Review of The Platform (2019) by Ozjohnd — 22 Jun 2020
Wow ... just wow ... what a ride. Violent, confronting, disgusting and highly recommended for none of those reasons but because it addresses, in a profoundly slap in your face manner, greed, overindulgence and the consequences of those traits for both one's own personal life experience and the cascade of consequences for others.
A worthy commentary on the human condition.
*spoiler alert*.
Pay particular attention that every "resident" of the complex has a gourmet meal prepared as they chose on entry on a daily basis - theoretically there is enough food for everyone, but clearly ... well you will see if you watch.
Might take a couple of time watching to pick nuances that lead to the "ah so that's what .." moments in the movie.
The ending in itself is fascinating and I note deliberately indeterminate in its design (conversation piece).
