In Theaters The Belko Experiment - Movie Review - on Thursday, 16 March 2017 06:33 - by Loron Hays Movie Review Details Blu-ray Review Trailer Art Ever complained about where you work? Ever wanted to kill a dumbass co-worker who makes your job even more difficult? Work sucks and it’s our right to bitch about it. At least, then, we don’t work for the sick company at the center of The Belko Experiment, who – proving just how fragile our society is – place their own building on lockdown and then, through a PA system, suggests that in order to survive the next 30 minutes, some killing of co-workers will need to be done. Let the games begin. Could you do it? Shocking, violent and every bit the twisted b-movie its writer James Gunn (of Slither and Guardians of the Galaxy notoriety) had in mind when writing it, The Belko Experiment offers both over-the-top horror AND biting satire. It just doesn’t commit to one or the other proving to be a sometimes-awkward combination of identities that might not always gel. The good news is that the horror film – because it does serve two genre masters – is not afraid to get its fists bloody in its clever spinning of office fracases. Once married to The Office’s Jenna Fisher, it’s not too hard to see where this satirical take on the grotesque in office “life” took root for Gunn. Think The Hunger Games for the 9 to 5 worker and you’ll have an idea of where Gunn takes this bloody film. We just don’t have an anti-hero in a wife-beater jumping from the top of the building to save the 80 employees from each other. Okay, so the location of the film is not inside the fictional Nakatomi Plaza of Die Hard fame, but it is a place that is just as cold and deadly. While the office workers are similar in that there are harmless flirtations, water cooler conversations, coffee drinking, and after work celebrations being planned, the difference here is that they themselves must become the terrorists in order to not have their own heads lobbed off. And this control (out of fear, mind you) is all due to a chip that was planted in their necks on one of the humdrum days of their stale office existence. Back then, they didn’t care about the lies being fed to them. Back then, they didn’t even know what it was they did for Belko Industries. We’re in security, right? Right??? Hell, back then; they didn’t even know there was an intercom system. Set in Bogota, Colombia, the company these poor sould work for – on the day of the bizarre and unexpected intercom announcement – suddenly reveals its true purpose to the workers…with steel walls. Ah, to be so naïve. Well, director Greg McLean (Wolf Creek) is about to drop some knowledge about meeting the demands of the working day, surviving the office, and just what it takes to successfully climb the corporate ladder. Got a case of the Mondays, yet?! On the day the locals and their bosses were sent home early, all hell breaks loose for these workers. Three will die they are told if sacrifices aren’t made. No one does anything. This is, after all, a sick joke, right? You know bosses and deadlines, right? Of course, once heads explode all over the workroom – getting those nicely pressed crisp white button-up collared shirts stained with blood, bones, and brain matter – a grave seriousness falls over the employees. Starring John Gallagher Jr., Adria Arjona, Michael Rooker, Tony Goldwyn, and John C. McGinley, it’s kill or be killed inside the halls, walls, and bathroom stalls of The Belko Experiment. Tribes are soon created, allegiances are sworn, and it’s Lord of the Flies by way of suit and tie. While the film needs to commit more fully to solidify its interpretation, there’s a lot that genre fans will dig. With The Belko Experiment, office politics couldn’t get any deadlier.

Što bi učinili kada bi vas netko natjerao da morate ubiti određeni broj ljudi ili će u suprotnom netko drugi ubiti duplo veći broj nesretnika? Naziv originala: The Belko Experiment Uloge: John Gallagher Jr., Tony Goldwyn, Adria Arjona, John C. McGinley, Melonie Diaz, Owain Yeoman, Sean Gunn Redatelj: Greg McLean Trajanje: 89 minuta Datum premijere: 17. ožujak 2017. U poremećenom eksperimentu 80 zaposlenika američke tvrtke u Bogoti je zaključano u uredsku zgradu te ih nepoznati glas preko razglasa obavještava da moraj ubiti određeni broj svojih kolega inače će oni ubiti dvostruko veći broj. Za „ispunjenje“ zadatka dano im je određeno vrijeme… Kratki je ovo sinopsis filma koji me je odmah privukao, a zanimljivu priču pratio je i jednako zanimljivi trailer. Sasvim očekivano, mali nezavisni filmovi teško privlače pozornost naših kinodistributera osim u slučaju da ostvare neočekivan oveliku zaradu od ulaznica (što u slučaju Eksperimenta Belko koji je zaradio samo 10 milijuna dolara nije slučaj), tako ni ovaj film nećemo moći gledati u našim kinima. Propuštamo li što? Taj je odgovor malo kompleksniji jer unatoč zanimljivoj priči koja vjerujem većini zvuči zanimljivo, Eksperiment Belko je ipak film za uži krug ljudi. Film redatelja Grega McLeana i priznatog scenarista Jamesa Gunna, među ostalim zaslužnog i za Čuvare galaksije, nije kako bi očekivali niti horor niti crna komedija što bi vjerujem bio mamac za veći broj ljudi. Umjesto toga Eksperiment Belko je triler, ali triler koji se oslanja na grafičke slike nasilja i koji se zbog toga neće biti privlačan većem broju gledatelja, pogotovo ženskom dijelu publike. Previše nasilan za opći ukus, a opet previše „vanilla“ za ljubitelje „gore“ akcije ovaj triler kao da je upao u vakum. Međutim, to ne znači da film čijih 89 minuta doslovno proleti, nema što ponuditi. Kritičari su mu zamjerili nedostatak karakterizacije likova zbog čega se teško suosjećati s patnjama likova, ali osobno ne smatram to tolikim minusom jer ova mješavina Igara gladi, Slagalice strave i Battle Royalea i ne traži karakterizaciju likova. Dobro je predstavljeno Mikeom, čovjekom koji pokušava urazumiti ljude i tražiti zajedničko rješenje, dok je „zlo“ u vidu šefa Barryja koji želi preuzeti stvar u svoje ruke i igrati po diktatu misterioznog glasa kako bi se spasio određeni broj ljudi. Upravo je to moralno pitanje ono koje je najzanimljivije, i koje će vjerujem natjerati sve okoji pogledaju ovaj film da se zapitaju – što bi napravili da se i sami nađemo u situaciji iz filma. Bi li pokušavali naći neko drugo rješenje, ili bi prihvatili igru i pobili određeni broj ljudi kako ne bi nastradao još i veći? Tko uopće ima pravo, kako Mike i još neki likovi iz filma ističu, određivati tko će preživjeti a tko umrijeti? Eksperiment Belko ne donosi velika glumačka imena ali su imena koja su vam dobro poznata iz TV serija. Ako vam John Gallagher Jr. nije poznat iz 10 Cloverfield Lanea ili Šuti, poznat vam je iz serije Redakcija, Tony Goldwyn iz Skandala, Michael Rooker iz Živih mrtvaca, a Josh Brener iz Silicone Valleya i nekoliko epizoda Teorije velikog praska. Nitko od uloga nije pretjerano upečatljiv, ali nije ni loš da „bode oči“. Eksperiment Belko donosi zanimljivu priču ali kao da je nastao nesporazum između redatelja i scenarista oko toga kakav ton dati filmu. Film se na kraju oslanja samo na nasilje koje nije dovoljno maštovito za one iskusnije koji su ljubitelji žešćih filmova, ali je sa druge strane pretjerano za prosječne gledatelje filmova. John Gallagher Jr. je jako dobar izbor za glavnog pozitivca, a od uloga će vam za oko zapasti zgođušna Adria Arjona, ali na kraju ovaj film je jedan od onih koje ili volite ili ne volite. U mom slučaju film je malo razočarenje, ali je još uvijek dovoljno zanimljiv za gledanje, a s obzirom na sami kraj očigledno je da ćemo imati prilike gledati i nastavak!Adria Arjona, Greg McLean, John C.
