October 7th 2024.
The release of The Platform 2 has caused a stir among viewers, with many expressing disappointment and frustration towards the film. As the sequel to the highly acclaimed first movie, expectations were high and fans were eagerly anticipating its arrival on Netflix. The 2019 Spanish thriller had captured the hearts of audiences with its unique premise of a prison divided into levels, with a platform filled with food descending from the top to the bottom. It tackled complex themes such as greed and wealth distribution, and was praised by critics for its thought-provoking nature.
Naturally, when news of a sequel broke, fans were ecstatic and the trailer only added to the anticipation. However, the release of The Platform 2 on October 4 left many feeling underwhelmed. Instead of building upon the original storyline, the film relied heavily on shock value and violence, leaving viewers feeling unsatisfied. As one fan on Reddit expressed, they had rewatched the first film in preparation for the sequel, only to be left confused and disappointed by the lack of answers provided in the second installment.
On social media, disappointment continued to spread as fans expressed their disappointment with the film. Many felt that it was unnecessary and simply a repeat of the first movie, with no new or exciting developments. Critics were also divided, with Rotten Tomatoes giving the film a 50% rating and the audience score sitting at a low 26%.
Unfortunately, The Platform 2 is not the only recent release to receive harsh criticism from viewers. The film Megalopolis was dubbed "the worst film ever" by Metro's Tori Brazier and was predicted to be a major box office flop, resulting in a loss of $115 million. Similarly, the sequel to Lady Gaga and Joaquin Phoenix's Joker was also met with negative reviews and a loss of $70 million at the box office.
