Alunauwie2025-08-31
★ 7/10
The Platform 2 is a prequel to the 2019 film, offering a more action-focused story with less emotional depth. It builds stronger character backstories and introduces clearer, though still mysterious, institutional rules. While it can stand alone, watching the first film helps make sense of the ending. The main conflict revolves around rebellion against Dagin Babi’s leadership, led by the female protagonist and the Barbarians. Though the action is intense and engaging, the resolution is unsatisfying and raises new unanswered questions. The presence of mysterious children on level 333 adds confusion rather than clarity. Performances, especially from the lead, are strong and supported by solid effects and sound design. Visual details are well-executed, though some plot elements feel inconsistent. While still worth watching, the film adds more mystery than it resolves. Read the full review here: (Indonesian version : alunauwie.com) and (English version : uwiepuspita.com)
