La Plateforme 2

No sensible plot. No nothing. Just bunch of nonsense. Halfway into the movie I can't help but wondering what this movie is about. And after I finished the movie, I still can't figure out what this movie is about.

As the person who likes The Platform 1/El Hoyo very much, this sequel is very disappointing.

I understand that maybe the writer or the director want a more cinematic movie. But can't you make one with a real plot? Not like this one. Wtf is this.

Do not waste your time watching this movie. Highly anticipated but also highly disappointing. I waited days to watch this and I'm on of the first 59 people who gave stars. I watched this the second it's released. But damn I'm so disappointed lol.

Like most of the people, I really, really like the first one, in fact is in my personal "top" of all time movies.

With this one, I recall this sort of maxim "When a story needs to be explained, it's because it was poorly told"...

So, in my opinion, this was a pitiful and unnecessary sequel.

Few films have left me feeling as frustrated as this one, I cherish my time with films and other kinds of art, but this experience fell short.

My hype wasn't so high, and yet, the outcome was a disaster.

At the end, I get so confused about the story... I don't really understand why the same people behind the first one, wanted to achieve with this...

To be blunt the film had me engaged and very interested for the first hour, but unfortunately it descended to a bizarre and confusing mess.

I enjoyed how the plot went in a different direction to the first and yet stayed similar, the dialogue and acting I thought was great and just overall it was interesting and left you wanting more. However, the more it went on it just became so messy and I feel as though the director was trying too hard to make the film "thought provoking" and quite "artsy".

I won't do any spoilers, but the ending especially just made zero sense. I had to google what the ending even meant and most critics also don't seem to know either, which speaks volumes. It's honestly such a mess! You can make a film thought provoking and have metaphors for life etc peppered throughout, but you have to incorporate it with a decent plot. And unfortunately this does not. It's just trying too hard at the end of the day and it falls very very flat and confusing.

In relation to the first movie, a few characters return throughout and there was definitely some scenes and dialogue that relate back to the first, which I really enjoyed.

Annoyingly I just can't get past how poor the ending really is. Nothing is answered and I feel as though I've wasted my time here. Directors and writers really need to stop trying to overdo this need to make movies in depth, thought provoking. If you're gonna do it, do it right. And this gets it wrong on so many levels (get it!)

5/10, because the first hour is really good. But the final half an hour completely ruins it!

After having enjoyed part 1, I was looking forward for this one but got hugely disappointed.

Inspite of too many questions n almost no answers, the first was was really impressive n captivating.

Expected some answers n a satisfying ending from part 2, but the makers didn't show anything new, in fact more questions are left unanswered, same things from part 1 are included, nothing new or thrilling stuff added in this one.

The suspense, the dreadful atmosphere, the dark comic, etc which were there in part 1 is all missing in part 2.

Mayb the makers are short of ideas of how to conclude the film.

Perempuán tries to survive the laws of the jungle, as the platform, the food source for all the inmates inside the prison continues to fall, the source of life for everyone.

I had all but forgotten about the first film, but I remember enjoying it, my hopes were high. Twenty minutes in, I was wondering how on Earth the films score was so low, forty minutes in I was questioning why it was as high as 5.

The first half an hour or so, I really enjoyed, the dynamic between Perempuán and Zamiatin was great, sadly it all fall apart after that, the whole story of politics and society just didn't work, it became a poor art house film, too showy, lacking wny content.

The whole gravity thing, honestly by that point, I totally lost it, I didn't have a clue what was going on. The ending was a total let down.

Good start, shocking after that.

5/10.
