The Belko Experiment

The disappointment of The Belko Experiment, then, is that it shifts so abruptly into horror-film terrain that it fails to examine the way this office has brainwashed these characters.

Going about its grisly business with undisguised relish, the film comes closer to the chilly spirit of science fiction writer J.G. Ballard than director Ben Wheatley did in his recent, overwrought adaptation of Ballard's novel High-Rise.

The Belko Experiment isn't much more than a good time at the theater, but it isn't really trying to be and doesn't really have to be.

A lean, mean, bloody comedy of the darkest order, Greg McLean's The Belko Experiment is pure genre fun.

Good, clean - well, not clean - generic fun from Wolf Creek director Greg McLean, bolstered by a solid ensemble cast and impressive bloodwork.

It is directed by Greg McLean and has an energetic performance by John Gallagher Jr as the unsplattable hero, but we've seen this Battle Royale or Hunger Games scenario too many times.

Somewhere between Office Space and Battle Royale, the scenario of The Belko Experiment turns a corporate setting into a gladiatorial bloodbath.

While The Belko Experiment leaves little to desire in terms of its characters, the film is quite entertaining in regards to its premise and whos next dynamic that plays throughout.

If we're in Trump's America now, then this is the movie for these times. The Belko Experiment is rage.

It's every bit of James Gunn's style, mixing gore with humor and delivering a compelling story with great characters.
