Óscar Jaenada, Natalia Tena, Hovik Keuchkerian, and Milena Smit in The Platform 2 (2024)
A thrilling physical journey that allows an approach to the darkness, where it is scary to look. It appeals to the viewer's civil responsibility and forces them to face the limits of their own solidarity.

    Frustrating

    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...

    A Promising Start with a Disappointing Finish

    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.

    No answers, more questions

    I don't think this film is for the average movie enjoyers such as myself. Even though the first movie ending left a lot of questions unanswered, I liked it. This sequel is of no difference. IMO, first movie showed us the consequences of capitalism and this one shows that socialism is no better. But where is the story in this? Where are the answers to the "normal" questions the fans had? Nothing was revealed. I'm disappointed. May be a sociopolitical expert can interpret it better than me. But for me, I needed some closure or answers and none were offered.

    On a postive note, acting was good, nice plot to covey the intended message, not boring.

    Giant Plot Holes

    The first movie was great, an original idea well executed that is beyond a movie, is a psychological study of human behaviour. The second one holds the interesting premise, but, unfortunately, as most sequels do, it wasnt able to achieve the same results. Great and well known actors helps, but they cannot move away the feeling that writters/producers/director were just out for the money, pushing too hard to make a movie that was ordered and not artistically created. The main problem here are the giant plot holes that end up disrespecting the original work. Somethings are meant to be a unity, not a franchise.

    What the f is this?

    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.
