A little grandstanding. .

personal opinion. .

The theme is very good, but the movie is only 80 minutes long, and you have to play a game with 50 people. The average person can only speak for one minute. It

feels like there are too many people

. Also kind of crap. . Too many irrelevant NPC lines. .

On the contrary, a few key protagonists feel a little regretful. . .

If this film is based on a relatively small number of people, it will be more profound if the representation is stronger. .

It still feels like a grandstanding movie, and it doesn't have much impact on me. . Compared to Chainsaw, The Walking Dead, Game of Thrones, The Mist, etc.

    The Atheist: [exhales] I'm a huge fan.

    Pretty Girl: What the fuck are you doing? I don't do porn.

    The Atheist: I don't think it's a problem. Everybody's gotta make a living. I don't have a problem with it.

    Pretty Girl: I don't do porn.

    The Atheist: All right, whatever. I'm just trying to pay her a compliment.

    Pretty Girl: He's lying.

    The Atheist: I gotta be honest with you, you know, I mean, I did like you better, though, before your enhancements, because now it's just like, "Wha-bam! Look at these bad boys."

    Pretty Girl: He's lying.

    The Atheist: Are they real?

    Pretty Girl: That is none of your fucking business.

    The Atheist: Are you saying they're real?

    Pretty Girl: So what? Half the girls in LA have big boobs.

    The Atheist: Yeah, and I'm sure it's great for business.

    Pretty Girl: I don't do porn!

    The Atheist: Who paid for them? Tell them, go ahead. It's okay, sweetheart. Who paid for them? Was it your employer?

    Pretty Girl: No.

    The Atheist: No?

    Pretty Girl: I mean he did. But it's not like that.

    The Atheist: He did. Now it's getting really difficult to decide.

    Pretty Girl: No, David is my boss, but we're also... I am not...

    The Atheist: Uh-huh. You see, Stacy over here thought if he gets those double D's, oh David's gonna love her. I mean, he's going to love her way more than his own wife and kids. I mean, who cares if they're already a family. It's never stopped you before, has it? What, are you going to run off with him? You gonna have a bunch of kids on your own? Settle down by the beach? Is that what you're gonna do, Stacy?

    [Christina starts crying; the atheist gets voted offscreen]

  • The Bearded Man: [after the African American man was eliminated] Of course. True love conquers all.

    The Soldier: You're out of options, my friend.

    The Bearded Man: Yeah? Well, you all just killed yourselves. Congratulations.

    [Pointing to the soldier, Cancer survivor and Silent Man]

    The Bearded Man: You, you, you. You all did this.

    [to the husband]

    The Bearded Man: and you.. you just killed your wife. I hope you're happy.

    The Husband: I did what I had to do.

    The Bearded Man: Yeah, well, now she's gonna die because of you. At least my way gave her a chance.

    The Soldier: Just shut the fuck up, man.

    The Husband: Yeah, man, just drop it.

    The Bearded Man: They're probably not even married.

    The Husband: What?

    The Bearded Man: I mean, think about it. What are the odds of them being the only married couple in here?

    The Cancer Survivor: Those other two knew each other.

    The Bearded Man: So they said.

    The Soldier: That's not gonna work, dude.

    The Bearded Man: So you're saying that they're married and that they just happen to be placed right next to each other? Uh-uh. Think about it, people. Isn't it possible that they just made this whole thing up?

    The Soldier: No.

    Pretty Girl: Why would they lie?

    The Bearded Man: To survive. Nobody wants to kill someone's wife or husband. Especially right in front of each other. They just made this whole thing up to get our sympathy.

    Pretty Girl: When?

    The Bearded Man: The first time he spoke. He said his name.
