Awesome performances and great adapted screenplay
|Posted .The Stanford Prison Experience gives an in depth look at the underlying tones of the human condition. Billy Crudup gives an amazing performance as do all the young teenage actors (Ezra Miller). Deeply disturbing and hauntingly brilliant!

Great movie that leaves you speechless
|Posted .I would recommend this to a friendThis movie is an interesting story of a college professor who stages an experiment with students, half will be prisoners and the other half will be guards. Now if that alone doesn't pique your interest I dont know what will. Let's just say that this movie does a great job in telling this story. I give it 4 stars only based on rewatchability which I don't find too high. Otherwise, a great film overall.

Great Movie
|Posted .I would recommend this to a friendWhat happens when a college psych study goes shockingly wrong? Based on the notorious true story, THE STANFORD PRISON EXPERIMENT stars Billy Crudup (Watchmen) as Stanford University professor Dr. Philip Zimbardo, who, in 1971, cast 24 student volunteers as prisoners and guards in a simulated jail to examine the source of abusive behavior in the prison system. The results astonished the world, as participants went from middle-class undergrads to drunk-with-power sadists and submissive victims in just a few days. Featuring an extraordinary cast including Ezra Miller, Olivia Thirlby, Tye Sheridan, Keir Gilchrist, Michael Angarano, and Thomas Mann, and created with the close participation of Dr. Zimbardo himself, THE STANFORD PRISON EXPERIMENT is a chilling, edge-of-your-seat thriller about the dark side of power and the effects of imprisonment.

Solid dramatization of infamous experiment
|Posted .I would recommend this to a friendAt times horrifying but always captivating, this is a good and concise dramatization of the rather significant psychology experiment. But maybe too concise, as perhaps a nod to the experiment's present relevance would have made the experience more complete. The performances are excellent throughout, especially Crudup's.

Wild ride into life planned
|Posted .I would recommend this to a friendI read the profile for this flick, but didn't see the twist until it was happening. The acting was better than I expected, and the drama level creeped up on you. A very psychological interspection into our perceived ideas.

Engrossing Movie
|Posted .I would recommend this to a friendI had heard of this experiment before and knew a little about it, but watching the movie was enlightening. The experiment only lasted six days but when you're watching the movie it doesn't seem like such a short space of time it feels longer. I really loved the behind the scenes stuff too and the fact that they had the guy who did the experiment help with the film. I think that added to the sense of realism the movie had.

Great movie based on interesting material
|Posted .I would recommend this to a friendBased on true events, this movie was a fascinating look on the experiment in which the movie is named off of. Great cast, and somewhat shocking to see how quickly some submit or abuse authority.
