Putting aside the authenticity of this film, after watching it, I wasn't surprised at all by the process and results of the entire experiment, because it wanted to express that social subservience would make you surrender your initiative so easily. There are a lot of passive personalities with no assertiveness, and it is the kind of people who are left behind after being screened to participate in the experiment, and they are placed in a carefully laid out layout, and the results can be imagined. So there will always be people who make it clear that they will not do things that go against their own values or even morals, but if everything happens around you, the result may not be what you can think of.
When I watched the first half of the episode, I kept thinking about a question, whether the whole experiment was recorded and broadcasted, whether it was approved by the subject, because if the experiment was successful, that is to say, he made the decision to kill, then after the film was broadcast It will definitely have an impact on him. But in the end, it was discovered that the person who was recording the whole process chose to refuse to kill. The film put this person in the position of the protagonist, and the others who chose to kill were only brought in at the end. Maybe this is also for the other subjects. Respect it.
