- A group of people is sent to a vertical prison with a hole in the middle through which food is lowered every day; prisoners only have two minutes to eat before they feed someone else.

The prison is a metaphor for our society. Those on the top gorge themselves and leave scraps for those at the bottom. Even if the places are reversed nothing changes because it is in our nature to be greedy and care little for those we consider to be beneath us.
Best explanation my bro
It's not our nature, except in this system of false scarcity.
@@Thomas-zz4ut So all of recorded human history is just wrong?
I'm 14 and this is deep
Yeah but it's not a perfect metaphor because in this prison everyone has an equal chance of being at any place, top or bottom. In reality the people are top are usually born into it or are extremely lucky, very few have a chance at any point.
The ending to this movie is pretty tragic once you realize that they did indeed send the dessert to the top. But the message wasn't received because the head chef thought they had sent it back due to a hair. It's heavily implied the girl was a hallucination and she was in fact the dessert. During the movie you can see a scene with said dessert being brought up, but again, they think it's sent back because of a hair. Making more of a realistic ending. Even if you try your hardest, sometimes you can't change anything. Because the people at the top are so far away it's nothing more than an inconvenience.
😰
this movie was so damn confusing ty for this Movie recap
The hair in the desert is a cut ending. In the actual ending, the girl does go to the top. In an alternate ending, they would have made it to the bottom just the same, but with no girl present. Then him sending the cake back up was more like an "FU", and a sign of his resignation for having reached the bottom and saw how futile it was to even eat the dessert, because it wouldn't sustain him for very long, it would only extend his misery. And whoever runs the whole thing, expecting all the food to be eaten, are clearly doing some sort of behavioral experiment, meaning the trigger to stop the experiment may have been for at least one food item to remain untouched, to show that man isn't entirely greedy. People think it's a representation of rich vs poor, but it could have been an experiment in human consumption...as in, the question of if humans, despite having enough to go around, would be able to not consume everything in sight.
The experiment could have also been "You can escape and we will let you go, but you must first survive the ride to the bottom so that you can take it back to the top". That may have been the trigger to end the experiment, or something each person must do to get out individually.
When you really look at everything, the misery was caused entirely by everyone in the prison. Had they all been thoughtful and cooperative, every person there would have been well fed and comfortably housed. So while the people running the place seem evil (and they are in a sense), the place was clearly designed to be more than a torture chamber, as there's just too much effort put into its design for it to be that. In the end, it's all about seeing what people would do.
Although I think anything they'd have to learn from such an experiment, would be pretty useless, as there's no obvious useful application for the results. So that's why they made the ending so ambiguous.
@@XXXTentaclez /// Through its metaphor, the film argues that there is more than enough money, food and resources to go around, but over consumption inevitably leads to inequality, and the wealthy are not inclined, or have the incentive to share.
The one with the hair was not sent down! The chef only sends down perfect food. He went all Gordon Ramsay on his kitchen staff for dropping a hair in it. He held up the hair to see who it was. You are confused and confusing others lol
No ones mentioned this but considering there are 333 floors and Trimagasi had been there for 10months (10 rotations) and the worst floor he had was 132, he is incredibly lucky. He was in the top 40% of floors 10 times in a row. Less then a 0.1% chance of that happening.
So statistically, the odds of you getting a floor worse then 130 twice in a row and being forced to death by starvation is about 36%, and a 21.6% chance you'll be below 130 with no food for 3months straight, you'd rely purely on eating your new cell-mate each month.
With 666 inmates a minimum of 200 a month would be almost guaranteed to starve purely from a mathematical standpoint unless they go out of their way to ensure you cant get that unlucky (which the movie pretty much specifies they dont)
406 would starve to death a month if were were 666 people.
month 1
130 food
536 no food
month 2
130 food
406 no food 2 months, aka dead
130 no food 1 month
You are not considering that people move up or down based on if they killed their cellmate or not.killing your celmate makes you move up. I dont know that does to your calculations.
@@RK-cj4oc I don't remember that being part of the movie to be honest, I know the girl killed her cellmate every week so she had a better chance of being with her child.
If its true then yeah it screws up the calculations a bit, but really doesn't change much.
Just means there are more murders and less people starving, the deaths remain relatively the same
In the end the optimal strategy is still to gorge yourself on the most nutritious and calorie dense foods, particularly when you are at the top, so that you are stronger and fitter to survive days at the bottom, whether it be living on your fat stores or be in better shape to fight the cannibals. Self interest rules.
@@hellosammy4105 My entire point was that odds are you'll never be near the top.
Your first 3months have a very solid chance of all being below level 100, its literally the most likely outcome is to purely starve to death if a majority of the floors (200+ out of 333) dont have enough food
If everyone is doing a 1 year sentence, 99%+ of people would starve to death because of pure variance on the floors you're most likely to spend time on
I saw this film during confinement, quite an experience, 100% recommended.
What I think:
- the child never existed
- the dessert actually came up with a hair, and the cooks misinterpreted the message
- the main character accomplished his mission but in the end his death is in vain because nothing is going to change
- quite a fan of the theory saying that killing his partner allows you to reach higher floors the following month
What is the name of the movie?
@@FuctByTheGovernment The Platform
wait that makes sense since the girl who always killed her partner always appeared above the main characters
@@Johnny_JD not to mention that the knife guy never got beyond the first ~40% of the floors in 10 months, which, assuming complete randomness would be a 1 in 10.000 chance
@@hellboy19991 🤯🤯🤯
The reason the room didn't get hot when they kept the panacatta is because it was the girl's choice of food. If you took the food that you chose in interview, now only will the rooms not get hot or cold, but everyone in the prison would have enough to eat.
You’re not wrong
Isn't the girl an hallucination, though?
The thing about the hair in the dessert...
EDIT2: Oh, I think the scene just shows what WOULD have happened had they sent it back.
How do you know that? Is there a whole lore for this universe?
This is the best take yet and you only got 400 likes. I'm upset. I need to see this movie.
so that means they’re supposed to eat that one specific meal they choose the entire time they’re there 🤔
The bottom line is you can't "engineer" the perfect societal order. People need to CHOOSE to do the right thing... not of fear or duty, but of pure love.
Well said..and I do agree with you
This
This movie reminds me of my high school days. When i ran for the class representative and gave a lecture about our society.
In our society people get paid millions of dollars just for kicking balls into the nets labeled as football. But in Africa a poor man work hard 24/7 in construction or mines but fail to feed their 2 years old children 3 times a day. Also he can't provide medicine for his suffering 1 year old daughter with asthma.
But where millionaires pays $1000 just to eat tiny amount of food in a decorated plate in a luxurious yacht.
Guess what i won that election after that speech but nothing has changed in the society. People only hear good things for minutes and throw them away after a day.
And how likely is that? We can only answer for ourselves - we cannot change others
Great take away. Cheers
by the time Goreng was in level 171 there's no food left, even when they were at level 48 the food was already looking like scraps. If there are 333 levels and assuming that around level 60 or 70, the food is already completely gone- that leaves like 80% of the rest of the levels to either cannibalize each other, tough it out by only drinking water, or eating whatever they brought it for a month. Trimagasi was technically correct when he said that level 48 was in the middle levels, that middle levels of those that can eat.
The ending is sad
"You sacrificed luxuries, for nothing. Here is a small surprise, but your efforts changed nothing."
Wise words Mr freeman.
What he didn't touch on was that each prisoner tells the intake staff their favorite food so it'd be practically impossible to not have all the food gone. And it wasnt mentioned that 333 floors with 2 people in each floor equaling 666...
Well done!
Yes they are in hell
33 is mason number as well and funny enough he was in that room specially
Pure symbolism at its best
You know writers do research, right? They probably used the numbers intentionally to invoke this very reaction you're having. We don't have to read too much into everything.
Through its metaphor, the film argues that there is more than enough money, food and resources to go around, but over consumption inevitably leads to inequality, and the wealthy are not inclined, or have the incentive to share.
Sorta, it just saying it human nature to want more, no matter how hard we try their will always be greed.
How exactly isn't there incentive to share, I think there is
They feel as if they share everyone would be equal and everyone would have equal levels of wealth and power. Now that can't be made to come true as the rich and powerful at the top would lose their status quo
@@fractionoflight4495 What's the incentive to share? What would they get out of sharing?
@@robins2819 everyone is guaranteed to eat , which will probably result in Less suffering and gluttony. In real life the gap between rich and poor is so much greater and people are at this current moment living without knowledge and education.
why the hell is a kitchen knife censored? we are living in a dystopian time line
Its a world where everyone is afraid of everything.
Meanwhile this movie is totally sick minded. But gotta blur the one sane thing in it

Its. Bit of an edgy 16 year old movie, the points are not that well established and the director that wrote it is in the same vail of real deep but also real edgy in an unbelievable way
The message isn’t deep. It’s super obvious. That doesn’t make it bad or anything, but it’s not some masterclass in storytelling either

Wow this was incredible, sad, and genuinely emotional. Honestly a great movie!
Something to keep in mind, the table has everyone’s favorite meal. There is enough food. At some point people are eating other peoples meals they know isn’t meant for them.
How do you know that as fact
@jygb7092 because it makes for a great plot, and a unbeknownst balance to support it, that's why...be more creative.
the first part is said in the movie
the second part is by logic
Thing is. I bet people have tried to ride the platform 100s of times. And when it flies back up to the top floor. How do we know it doesn't impact to keep prisoners from escaping? We never find out what happens to the little girl. It's a really sad story and says a lot about society
The little girl didn't exist. Only the dessert is sent up and the chefs think people didn't like it due to a hair being on it.
@@poot6209 Can u explain further? I still dont understand
@@sleepmaniac9715 girl is also hallucination. girl is actually desert being sent to chefs on top, but they dont understand what it is
@@poot6209 I thought that too. At that point he's beaten and close to death but there's no evidence of that other than "under 16s are not allowed" it's a broken system and sometimes things and people slip trough your the cracks
@@poot6209 the one that had a hair on it was remade. The head chef disciplined the chefs. All food they send down is perfect. That's why the shots of them grabbing and destroying it all means so much. No one cares about how good it looks when you are that hungry youl eat anything
Man I always wondered why would anyone watch these to essentially spoil movies but I can't believe I found this gem of a movie. I watch the first portion and once intrigued I went to watch it. Thanks to your channel. Apparently , Netflix hasn't recommended this to me.
I just can't stop. At this point I've watched more movies by youtube movie recaps channels than actually watching them myself. I guess it's the combination of lack of time, not wanting to spend half of my free time on looking for actually good movie, and I also don't want to watch a crap movie but understand it's crap half way through
I don't have time for anything, and CZcams helps me get a glimpse of the things I used to love
because most movies suck and dont deserve an hour or more of peoples time. While they suck sometimes the general idea of a story is good. Thats why people love these recaps
@@marionamewontwork2681AMEN 🙌😂
Netflix only recommends popular shit, they’re literally the worst streaming platform
Knowing what happens isn't the same as hearing the lines performed, listening to the way the music plays below the scene or seeing how a director frames a shot. The emotional impact isn't lessened cause you know what happens or people would never watch a movie more than once. Personally, knowing makes me more excited to see something.

@@retropwuh.. wasn't trimagasi killed people before he came there?
I feel bad for Baharat, he tries his best to support Goreng even its against his fellow friends
Because he has become a religious convert, so he is after his new purpose rather than living his old life or seeking economic relevance by going up the floors, just like Miharu looking for her non-existent child. That purpose essentially occupies her that she no longer wants to seek relevance by staying up. She accesses every floor, but her only purpose is not to gain a better position, but to find her purpose, which actually doesn't exist cos there was no child in there. She represents the religious part of the society.
There was actually no child in there. Miharu keeps fighting to survive each day without actually thinking of getting to the top because her goal is different from that of the others in there. The lack in there is not her essential problem cos she pursues a dream which for her is more worthy than getting to the topmost class of the economy or even being in charge of the hierarchy; though her dream seem unrealistic. She has created her own goal and it has helped her not to think of the common problem others in that system are facing. She's probably the only one who has accessed all the floors yet she never desires getting to the top because she keeps chasing a goal she'll never achieve till she dies. Remember no child was in there, the child was non-existent, so she was never gonna find any child in there. She ended up making some people (Goreng and Baharat) believe there is something to seek for rather than going to the top of that economic chain. She is the religious members of the society. Goreng and Baharat are men of good will who ends up as converts who came to believe there is fulfilment in something else they only believed exist rather than seeking to gain economic power and influence by joining the platform up.

Yikes!! That is So True!!
My heart hurts, I haven't seen the movie, but at least these people signed a contract.... in real life... you just are where you are.
If the platform comes down from the top then shoots back up after it reaches the bottom then there must be a level above room 1 where they prepare the food. So room 1 would most likely just be one level down from a possible escape or at least see what goes on.
This movie is mind bending for me. My mother always tells me dont waste any food and always clean your plate and dont throw food away cause there are lots of people starving in this world.
Exactly what my mom told me since she's from Dominican Republic and how poor it is there and I'm Puerto Rican.
I did that once as a kid, since we ate at 12pm, let's just say, I went the rest of the day without eating until the next day 😂
At the beginning of the movie they ask each prisoner what is their favorite food all they have to do is eat their favorite item and everyone would get the chance to eat
Oh shit really !? I missed that😮
Not everyone’s favorite food were included in the meal everyday. Remember there are total of 666 prisoners in the hole (2 in every room, 2 x 333). Like Goreng’s favorite food that he listed before entering the hole which is some kind of snail dish/recipe, was only included in the meal when he was sent on floor 33, on his last day at that floor.
@@rjfc6514 maybe he's snail dish kept getting eaten by levels above him...
Your favorite food is NOT guaranteed to have sufficient nutrition to support you, nor is any particular quantity promised.

@@spectate0074 The Platform.
The worst part of this is when you realize the chefs and jailers at the "top" aren't even the top of our entire society. They are glorified service workers in a prison complex. The CEOs, politicians and even the common man who consciously and unconsciously support this horrible hidden world aren't ever involved with the prisoners. Everything they do will never be heard beyond the kitchen and maybe a throwaway report or article.
That's literally what dealing with the prison system in our world is like right now. The common middle class man will barely experience or understand how bad it really gets in there.
Remeber how seeing 202 made him realize there are more floors than they expected? Even if they get out, there will be a million more floors. And just like the chefs on the top, the REAL top percentage can't connect or empathize.
If you haven’t seen this you need to! It is such a great film and it is a film that makes you think hard about what you would do in each scenario presented (based on which level the characters find themselves on). I like psychological thrillers because they stay with you. This film did not disappoint and there is a lot to analyze with this film. I recommend 10/10
Best strategy is to eat as much as you can when you are at the high floors so that you build up strength and fat to survive low floors. Also killing others gets you to the higher floors, which is all the more reason to eat as much as possible when you can to stay fit.
Whats the title?

Sorta since they could use the platform easy
could be automated, like with those old cube movies.
Lol that's why they do it once per month
Her's my understanding of this movie which is obviously an allegory and not to take 1st degree :
The prison is our society and the plateform is our ressources (money, food, whatever)
Our economical system makes us rise or go down the floors
Tramagazi represent the people who accept the system how it is and is ready to do anything to survive, even harm other people. He don't want to rise or go down, just to stay alive. He stand for himself because in his mind, all humans are selfish animals who would do the same. HE may know he is a bad person, but thinking everybody is like that gives him good conscience.
His Brought object is a knife, symbol of treason and being ready to backstab people in his way.
Baharat represent the believer who think he can climb those floors by the only strenght of his will, but people are mean and will prevent his success. HE represent the ambitious who think society will grant him something if he work hard enough.
His brought object is a rope, symbol of his will to "climb" society.
Imogiri stand for the people who work for the establishment, keeping quiet while having a confortable life. She is an insider who knows that the system is tricked to give more to some
and less to others, while there is more than enough for everybody. But her sickness gave her an existential crisis and now she want to change people but her actions resumed to speak out flat advices that nobody listen to.
She have a dog because she knows people too much and prefer the company of an animal who is not cursed with human greediness.
Miharu represent the parents who are ready to sacrifice themselves for their child. They would go to extreme lenght to ensure their child is safe, even sacrificing themselves.
I saw the movie long ago I don't quite remember what she brought with her. Maybe it was her child, in this case it just reinforce this idea of this parent ready to go the depth of hell if needed, with and for their child.
Goreng is this random guy who would like to change society, but is completely overwhelmed by it and have no choice but to do what it force it to. At some point he find the courage and the support try something. When he find Miharu;s child, he realize that all this struggle for survival is ridiculous, and any attempt of changing society is pointless, because it is an automated system, a tower of beton, cold and soulless, that nobody is able to change.
By the way, his brought object is Don Quichotte, which is the story of an utopist who think he can change society for the better
Sending the child to the top is just a bottle in the sea, you realize your time is over and your efforts gave no results, but you place all your hope in your child, hoping that he will be accepted up there, for a better life than you had.
The ending is really dark, it's not about making people up there realize what's going on (because again, it's not first degree), it's about trying to save the child, at least, since you cannot save anybody else, let alone yourself.
As I see it; There is no kid, theres only a panna cotta and a scene where the cooks get questioned bc someone first time ever send food back. They dont get the message and its all worthless.

That movie was hoffifying, beautiful and genius. The acting is incredible and the scenes are so vivid you forget that the entire plot takes place between depressingly grey concrete wall. Can recommend watching the real thing before the recap :D
There was a scene in the middle of the movie of the food they were to use as a symbol was on the platform all alone after the entire thing which means he hallucinated the kid and did actually put the food there but the chefs and people at the top thought the 'prisoners' didn't eat because of a hair on it meaning the message never actually did what it was meant to do

I agree it is a good channel and I have found some good movies through it. You can also start watching one and then decide whether you want to spend 2 hrs watching the whole thing, which is nice because it also helps you avoid wasting time on bad movies.
It seems like the editing is really good and matches up with the scripts, and the scripts are worded very well. So I don't think it's AI running it, but the text-to-speech reading is noticeable. Maybe it is made by some people below level 300 in our vertical prison in order to make money for the people who own them and live on level 6.
I'm still trying to work out how the platform moved between floors with nothing supporting it
Magic
I remember watching this movie for my Spanish final and had to watch it in Spanish with no subtitles it was definitely a crazy movie and kept me in got a 10/10 on the final when I wrote about it.
Best quote in the movie. “Because I can’t shit upwards”.
Miharu and gorin were the only people who actually still had a drop of humanity left in them
killing people left and right - “drop of humanity” ok bud
simp
I’d argue quite the contrary. We live in a world where doing the less “animalistic” action is considered “humanity”. Every person in the movie is a human. Humanity is innately greedy and the prison proves it. Out of 333 “humans”, only 3 seemed to have “humanity”, therefore I don’t understand why even bother calling it “humanity”.
Baharat and the guy on wheelchair too
@@fareastslav whom did he kill left and right? All I remember was when he defended the woman?
This is a good surface level breakdown, but when you account for the numerology and esoteric element of this you realize how truly great this movie is.
I mean this also completely neglects the deeper analysis of the film from a societal point of view. The point is the only way to get people to share is through force, at the end it takes violence to get order, this is supposed to be analogous to authoritarian communist regimes like those of the USSR or Castro's Cuba. People will NOT choose right is the message, we are greedy under capitalism, and those who kill and steal end up at the top and only those who are good hearted and have the power and will to protect those lower levels can bring this out (specifically with violence), this is what Marx called the vanguard party. The movie is a marxist interpretation of capitalistic society through an extended metaphor.
@@mfvitt8000 I think vanguardism is from Lenin. Marx believed that the proletariat would naturally become revolutionary.

Completely agree with you. Saw this movie 2 years ago. Its really good
Agreed. Great movie.
Wats d movie title?
This is a very sad, yet almost accurate depiction of human society where people will eat all the each and don’t care about the people on other floors below them so that they can eat alll the food
Its not an accurate depcition
Wealth isn't given to you, you make it.
The movie where people eat other people’s meat if you catch my drift
@@genghiskhan5701 so rich people don't have children?
@@genghiskhan5701 Oh you innocent soul... I pray that you never find out how things really work.
The point is the only way to get people to share is through force, at the end it takes violence to get order, this is supposed to be analogous to authoritarian communist regimes like those of the USSR or Castro's Cuba. People will NOT choose right is the message, we are greedy under capitalism, and those who kill and steal end up at the top and only those who are good hearted and have the power and will to protect those lower levels can bring this out (specifically with violence), this is what Marx called the vanguard party. The movie is a marxist interpretation of capitalistic society through an extended metaphor. This does not make it right or wrong but its important to remember that the actual message of this movie is the same as the message of Stalin and Mao, now whether you agree with that or not is up to you but there is a lot more reading to be done than just this oversimplified metaphor.
Such a compelling film...
Some parts hard to watch and it takes a lot for me to experience that.
10:04 the way he falls after the kick 😂
That was one of the craziest insane movies i've ever seen, saw it on netflix when i used to have it, it wasn't in English either, had to watch it with subtitles.
how are you
Watched this movie for the first time in October a couple years ago. I'm trying to get my family to watch it again with me. It was so good. So many different details in it.
Wats d tittle of d movie?
@@eniyeikporo The Platform.
@@beckscald3855 you are a LEGEND for this, I have no Idea why they can't put the name of the movie in the description.
@@Chili.P me either to be honest. It's honestly such an interesting film. One of the best I've seen in a long time.
That dude dancing on the platform haunted me! Why do scary movies always have someone dancing, and why does that always freak me out?! 🤣🤣🤣🤣
One of the best movies I saw during the first month of subscribing to Netflix
This low key my favorite channel
This Movie is an underRated Masterpiece
Facts
So this movie is literally "trickle-down economics" in food form
Not exactly. 'Trickle-down' economics postulate that the people at the top want to make ever more money, but cannot without employing more people. If those at the top make more (through tax breaks etc.) then they will supposedly invest that back into the economy, creating more jobs and more goods for those who would otherwise be unemployed. The theory falls apart however, when those receiving the aid just pocket the extra cash rather than re-investing, or when the system fails to account for the fact that by making everything cheaper, you ultimately flood the market, goods go unsold and businesses start closing. The market itself can only handle so much at a base level, before it starts to collapse under the strain of inflation and devalued currency.
Trickle-down is not just the rich being selfish and short-sighted - that is only a part of the equation. The other end is that all of mankind's existence has been characterized by scarcity of resources. Every system we have, from the economic, to the moral, to the biological, is based on the idea that we will not always have everything we want or need. When situations are created where we DO have plenty, nothing about what we have created or even what we _are_ is designed with that situation in mind. Sadly, a minimal level of scarcity is necessary for any human-designed system to work.
No its capitalism
Hahaha truuuue
And it works just as well 💪
@@Schimml0rd Please be sarcasm
That's a bad analogy, because in the real world, you are not trapped on your floor, relying on the largesse of those above you. In the real world, you can escape your "floor" and make your life better. I did.
my question is how is it possible that that big of a guy and the guy with a sword both survive for so long on a such deep level without eating eachother
maybe they went down together on an earlier day to eat other people. been a while since I watched this movie, but I don't remember the dudes ever being explained in any way
This movie was definitely in the top 10 for me
When the platform raises from bottom floor I'd try using bunk beds in a vertical position in the hopes that if you get crushed from it's ascending it can prevent that.
Provided the top does just crush you, which we don't know.
If I recall correctly the very top is a kitchen with a lot of people cooking the food
@@giannih6484 is it in the movie??
@@indianspartan724 yes im ps
it doesn't matter when the system is unalterably corrupt when you can't change people in denial, because you can change yourself. Overcoming the need for external validation and offering yourself as a self-directed sacrifice to serve others engenders an ecstasy greater than a thousand lifetimes of bliss.
Facts.. once U see the Joy You bring in helping Genuinely it becomes addictive and You keep craving for that satisfaction all Ur Life
This movie was awesome. Amazing concept
Movies like this deserve more recognition. They truly depict the injustice in our society
What injustice? They implemented socialism hard in this film and they drastically failed.
@ibm30rpg i hope you didnt expect an actual intellectual response from any of these simpletons. 😅
I really enjoyed this movie, it went places I really didn't expect
Watched this during lockdown after my friend recommended it, it's a fantastic film. I know it's allegorical/metaphorical for society etc, but at the time all I could think of was that it was pretty similar to the great toilet roll shortage situation of covid19 😬🙃
Or even closer to the movie; when Churchill during ww2 took all grain from India to fill the British stockpiles incase of a prolonged shortage while the Indian population was dying of starvation due to this XD
0.tS
bro you know theres actual third world countries right
@@Tozzie50these simpletons arent too bright
@@dokwalk621 im a retard too but fr like😭
If you have not seen the movie I recomend you to skip recap and do so. This is a gem, would be a loss to miss it.
This is a very touching yet quirky unsettling movie, has to be one of my all time favorites
Love this move and keep watching it over and over.
HOW ABOUT HAVING THE MOVIE TITLE IN THE DESCRIPTION??
imagine if someone just ransacked the whole buffet instead of eating them and left nothing for anyone below lol
i have a theory that the level you’re placed in is determined by the amount of food you take each day and adds up at the end of the month
Watch the real movie and you’ll know
in the movie those who kill and do bad things are placed higher
Imagine the horror of shuffling 333 levels or carrying 666 people (dead or alive) around in less than a day...Building a 333 levels prisoner is already an almost impossible feat, it is more than 2 times higher than Burg Khalifa!
Such a building could never possibly exist in the world. It could only exist in the biblical hell to be maintained via super natural means.
can build it downward
@@Novusod why not?
You could just stack 50 floors next to each other like 7 skyscrapers and just bring the platform back to the top for each skyscraper . But yes if it was all one place then he’ll no
Esta película es una pasada y no tuvo el reconocimiento que se merecía hasta que Netflix la popularizó. Viva el cine español
7:48 That brutal prank with baharat had almost killed me🤣🤣
When he nonchalontaly said that the person above defficatted on the guys face climbing the rope i feel into maniacle laughter
This movie is so crazy, kind of shook me when I watched it
Some of the most unique and interesting story.
why is the knife blurred?
Might have got the video restricted
After seeing this on Netflix a month or two ago, It's confusing but very good
Imagine how sad the last person to get the table would be 😭😭
There would not even be a table at the last room
Cool but did you really have to edit out the knife?
this is definitely one of my favorite movies ever
One of my all time favorite movies.
I’m so new, what’s the name of it??
@@m.u.sik4evaThe Platform. I absolutely loved it. I have watched it several times.
This was a damn good movie! I learned something valuable from this movie.👍
Great movie 👍
This was an amazing movie. I did watch a few times like months apart of course because it stuck so hard with me. But it’s clearly metaphoric yet I would classify as horror. I couldn’t do the one scene from mother! Again. But I was able to rewatch this. Mother! Felt more depressing throughout its movie where I had hope that in platform that the message would be heard of course wishful thinking.
One of my favorite movies of all time.
Wouldn't be surprised if there is things like this in real life that the higher ups use as entertainment.
Wonderful film.
this was an insanely good movie
But honestly I still don't understand the ending of this movie
Think of the ending as rebuff to the system.rhe whole movies is a commentary on society and how resources are distributed from the top down...but the systems we are all apart of operationalize the distribution of said resources....think about it a bit and you will find your own interpretation
This is not to take 1st degree, this movie is an allegory.
The prison is our society and the plateform is our ressources (money, food, whatever)
Our economical system makes us rise or go down the floors
Tramagazi represent the people who accept the system how it is and is ready to do anything to survive, even harm other people. He don't want to rise or go down, just to stay alive
Baharat represent the believer who think he can climb those floors by the only strenght of his will, but people are mean and will prevent his success. HE represent the ambitious who think society will grant him something if he work hard enough
Imogiri stand for the people who work for the establishment, keeping quiet while having a confortable life. She is an insider who knows that the system is tricked to give more to some
and less to others, while there is more than enough for everybody. But her sickness gave her an existential crisis and now she want to change people but her actions resumed to speak out flat advices that nobody listen to.
Miharu represent the parents who are ready to sacrifice themselves for their child. They would go to extreme lenght to ensure their child is safe, even sacrificing themselves.
Goreng is this random guy who would like to change society, but is completely overwhelmed by it and have no choice but to do what it force it to. At some point he find the courage and the support try something. When he find Miharu;s child, he realize that all this struggle for survival is ridiculous, and any attempt of changing society is pointless, because it is an automated system, a tower of beton, cold and soulless, that nobody is able to change.
Sending the child to the top is just a bottle in the sea, you realize your time is over and your efforts gave no results, but you place all your hope in your child, hoping that he will be accepted up there, for a better life than you had.
The ending is really dark, it's not about making people up there realize what's going on, it's about trying to save the child, at least, since you cannot save anybody else
The protagonist sends up the kid in order to get the administration to shut down the prison since they likely don't know that there is a child in the prison. The ending doesn't show if it works but your left wondering if the kid represents a false hope that change is possible or a real hope that change will really come. Each character in the prison are symbols of hope, courage, doubt, distrust, etc it's supposed to represent the upper class hoarding resources while the lower classes suffer.
@@menalgharbwalsharq648 perfect interpretation.
@@speedysloth2868 there’s no way the child got out. How many other people would have thought about just riding the platform? They would’ve had a failsafe
Would be cool if there was a part 2
its called the platform
Why is the knife blurred out? 😅
For everybody who didn’t get the ending. Here’s the master!
Everyone is enough with their favourite dish. Like pie or snails to survive. But from above people prefer to eat more. And panna cotta was the one for poor girl. To show that rules of the chefs are wrong. But I don’t know if it’s worth because they don’t care
you know you dont gotta blur the knife like who hasn't seen a knife before
This is one of the best movie of our time. I would urge everyone to watch this movie rather than it's recap.
how are you
2 minutes is more than enough time to allow me to wold down that entire table filled with food 😂
Next level chef prison edition.... Gordon must be proud
how are you
"Hey John, you said you want the Jelly and what?"
"And some chicken, not much tho!"
"Got it! Oh, and tell the fellas down that i ate the fish since not much people enjoyed it last time i'm at the bottom!"
"Sorry pal, i'd spread the news for the people down here"
"Much appreciate! Enjoy your diner too, boys!"
