The Platform 2 attempts to build on the unique premise of its predecessor, but ultimately falls short of its predecessor's impact. While the first film delivered a gripping exploration of class struggle and human morality within a dystopian setting, the sequel feels like a rehash rather than an expansion of the original concept.
The sequel introduces new characters and rules, but they often lack the depth and development that made the original so compelling. The social commentary, which was sharp and thought-provoking in the first film, feels muddled and less impactful this time around. The pacing is uneven, with stretches that drag and moments that feel forced or contrived.
Visually, the film retains some striking imagery, yet it fails to evoke the same visceral tension that kept audiences on edge previously. Ultimately, "The Platform 2" feels unnecessary, as it doesn't add meaningful insights or innovations to the story. While fans of the original may appreciate returning to this world, the sequel serves as a reminder of how powerful the first film was-highlighting just how much it left to be desired in its follow-up.

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.

This could have been a very good movie. About three-quarters of the film was brilliant, filled with meaning and powerful metaphors, much like the first movie. The character arcs were compelling. However, the last part is absolute trash. While you could attempt to draw meaning from the chaotic final segment, the sad truth is that it feels like a forced attempt to meet certain Netflix requirements. This results in a disjointed and out-of-place segment that leads to an ending that ultimately goes nowhere.
Still, I think it was worth watching, at least for the first half, especially if you are a fan of the first movie. The early brilliance somewhat makes it a worthwhile experience, even if it doesn't fully deliver in the end.

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...

Bang average...
To be honest this should have been like Cube (1997) 1 and done (if anyone hasn't seen Cube and you liked the first one, go out of your way to find it, it's a brilliant film, TRUST ME! ).
This one is a bit strange in all honesty, I know the original was as well, but there was reason behind the rhyme. Plus the Biblical and societal comparisons were open to interpretation, depending on how you saw it, which is a bit lost in this one.
The first was a Seven or Eight out of Ten, but this one is bang, "middle of the road, right down the center Five out of Ten" average.
Its worth seeing if you have seen the first one, but you won't enjoy it as much. It's a completely different style and type of film, but I suppose it's still worth watching if you want to see "A SEQUAL".....
