Das Experiment movie stills
Reviews provided by RottenTomatoes
Glenn Lovell, San Jose Mercury News: At once simplistic and compelling in a trashy sort of way. Read more
Janice Page, Boston Globe: As it goes into the final turn and is headed for home, it mysteriously runs right off the rails, and Hirschbiegel seems happy to let the whole thing spin wildly out of control. Read more
Terry Lawson, Detroit Free Press: Das Experiment may make an obvious point, but it's still a relevant one. Read more
Richard Roeper, Ebert & Roeper: Too many flaws, too many holes in the plot. Read more
Moira MacDonald, Seattle Times: Excels at building tension to an almost-unbearable point. Read more
Loren King, Chicago Tribune: An R-rated version of Survivor, Big Brother or any number of reality-TV shows that present voyeurism as entertainment and exploitation as insight. Read more
Elvis Mitchell, New York Times: It's empty calories trying to trumpet its bogus nutritional value, and the strain for social importance undermines the picture. Read more
Kevin Thomas, Los Angeles Times: The cat-and-mouse game proceeds along conventional lines; the plot is full of holes. Read more
Owen Gleiberman, Entertainment Weekly: Rigid, airless, and browbeatingly repetitive, Das Experiment is an overly didactic piece of thesis hectoring. Read more
Ray Conlogue, Globe and Mail: Probably it's more action film than anything else, but has enough insight to be of interest to serious filmgoers. Read more
Hazel-Dawn Dumpert, L.A. Weekly: Far-fetched and wearying. Read more
Andrew Sarris, New York Observer: It is in the camera details rather than the grand design that Das Experiment excels. Read more
Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times: What impressed me is how effective the movie was, even though the outcome is a foregone conclusion. Read more
Jonathan Curiel, San Francisco Chronicle: Hirschbiegel has given narrative form to man's inhumanity to man. Read more
Susan Walker, Toronto Star: The movie's central premise -- is well supported in a film whose strength is in its close-ups on characters and its ability to put the viewer in the cell with them. Read more
Ed Halter, Village Voice: A keen, gripping psychodrama with unsettling real-life underpinnings. Read more
