If you're into survival, or enjoy these cast members, or like prison stories, you may really like this one. 26 men are chosen to participate in the roles of guards and prisoners in a psychological study that ultimately spirals out of control. While you might be able to rent better films, this is not something to automatically pass up. With Adrien Brody, Forest Whitaker, Cam Gigandet, Clifton Collins Jr. but I'm not sure how close it is to the other sources. I think it's safe to say that this film has nothing to do with the original experiment (it is very, very loosely based). What I can say is that this was adapted from a 2001 German film, which was adapted from a book, which was loosely based on the Stanford Prison Experiment. This may have been indirectly addressed, though. At the end of the movie, as Barris places his check in his wallet, the date on the check reads Jan.

However, the fact that Barris (Forest Whitaker) is watching a flat screen TV near the beginning of the movie, indicates a more recent setting. The experiment shown in the film wouldn't hold up by standards today, as the safety of the people involved is now a top priority. The original experiment was conducted in 1971. Not that she does a poor job, but that the character is completely pointless, has no development, and her scenes only add another five or ten minutes on to the film - which would have been more powerful without her. The film is a remake of the 2001 German film Das Experiment, which was directed by Oliver Hirschbiegel. Scheuring and starring Adrien Brody, Forest Whitaker, Cam Gigandet, Clifton Collins, Jr., and Maggie Grace, about an experiment which resembles Philip Zimbardos Stanford prison experiment in 1971. But even more sad is the inclusion of Maggie Grace as the hippie Bay. The Experiment is a 2010 American drama thriller film directed by Paul T. I'm saddened that after some bigger hits (notably "Short Circuit") Stevens has been reduced to doing bit parts. I no longer post on this channel but if youd like to see what Ive been up to check me out on these new Channels. I have to give a shout out to Fisher Stevens, who plays the professor Archaleta. Starring Adrien Brody as the pacifist (perhaps even hippie) Travis and Forest Whitaker as Barris, these two can carry the film on their own, with or without the ensemble cast. This film could have been easily forgettable, but luckily they somehow secured a great cast, and I think that may have saved it from being just another American remake. Lots of torture is used in the film, usually graphic. Men are punched, slapped, and heads are held under water as punishment. The experiment causes even the pacifists to turn violent, and there is no one to stop them. A man is shot in the head, a man is hit by a car, a man is executed by a firing squad, a cows throat is slit open, video clips of concentration camp victims, a video clip of open heart surgery, and an animal is shot. But that may have been a really, really bad idea. A group of people, looking to earn a quick buck, sign up for a behavior experiment.
