Clever, believable, and super fun to watch. It totally has replay value.

Funny, strange, confrontational and subversive, this is one of the most interesting experiences you'll have at the cinema this year.

The best films of this genre always show a path and provide a takeaway for being a better person.

The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.

There's something vaguely 80's about this movie - a time when you could still get a fair bit of money to make a film with no purpose, and stand a decent chance of it making it in front of a few people. The violence, of which there is a staggering, ugly amount, is very of the moment, but not in any considerate or thoughtful way. This is a profoundly thoughtless movie, with a few good actors struggling to find something to cling onto - but in a movie with no point, and no message, nothing but brutality and a camera that lingers over pain, they never find it. This film made me feel really bad. I'm sad that I watched it. The trailer was cut like it was a dark comedy, and there's just...nothing even vaguely amusing about this. It's not even imaginative horrible violence and cruelty, you've seen it all before, and the direction flops between explicit, Raimi-esque fountains of blood and people dying because they got bopped in the head. It's miserable, and you can find something better to watch.

As a Latina I have to say that I was a little offended by this movie, first the beginning song seemed disrespectful to me to change the lyrics, some Latinos will understand. Second in Colombia flamenco music is not used, that is in Spain, a country where Latinos are really hated. They should have investigated a little more. Thank you.

Acting/Cast: PR: Above Average - 60 No household names here for the most part, but still some noticeable players and overall a nice job of casting and acting. Tony Goldwyn is surprisingly good as the lead villain and I always enjoy John C. McGinley and his ability to get under your skin.Directing/Production: Average - 55 Nothing groundbreaking or special in this category, but the story has a good flow to it and the movie moves along well without any meaningless scenes. One could argue the movie moves along a little too fast toward the latter part of the film. The production value is solid and the movie has no indication that it wasn't produced for the level of the film.Story: Average - 55 The story really isn't anything new and the idea that only the strong (smart) survives has been done many times over. The concept is very much in line with the Saw series where individuals are pitted against one another testing their own will to survive.Entertainment Value: Above Average - 60 As mentioned above the movie has a good flow and you don't get a chance to get bored with it. It is extremely violent, gory, and even a little troubling to watch as the content is not for the weak at heart. If those things don't bother you, check it out.Power Rating: 57.5

"The Belko Experiment" is a thriller horror movie in which we watch a social experiment taking place in an American corporate office in Bogota of Colombia. This social experiment is very simple, you have to kill and not be killed by someone else. The winner would be the last survivor. I have to admit that I expected more from this movie and that's why I was disappointed by it. It's a bad copy of "Battle Royale" and "The Hunger Games" due to its low budget and an average cast. Of course, the main difference is that it takes place in an office and on an island. Despite that, I liked the interpretations of John C. McGinley who played Wendell Dukes and John Gallagher Jr. who played Mike Milch. The direction which was made by Greg McLean was average due to the lack of twists and a good plot. To sum up, I believe that "The Belko Experiment" is an average movie with a poor plot and not many good scenes. If you have high expectations from this movie it would be good to reconsider watching it if you want to watch a movie just to spend your time then this is your movie.
