A recruitment advertisement in a newspaper brought together all kinds of ordinary people in this society. For huge bonuses, people walked into this death laboratory, which can also be said to have entered the prison of primitive society. A nightmare began, and the atmosphere in the laboratory became increasingly tense and violent as the animals' survival instincts unleashed and the wild eruption in the face of the predicament.

I personally feel that most of the film is very depressing. In fact, from the beginning of the video of the animal fighting the weak and the strong, I have already felt the horror of this film. What is terrifying is the survival wildness of animals, and what is terrifying is the wild release of human beings in the face of adversity.

We often hear people say how sophisticated this person is and how hypocritical this society is, but after reading this lab, I suddenly realized how cute the hypocrisy is. In the historical process of the progress of human civilization, human beings have to constantly pretend to take care of their own instincts, so as to keep themselves in the safest state. I suddenly found that this is a behavior that is very worthy of understanding. At the end of the car returning to civilized society, "A: Do you still think that we humans are more advanced than apes? The male protagonist said after careful consideration: Yes! At least we can resist." Today's living conditions, the most real feeling and experience of civilization and progress, is the affirmation of blood.

This is the difference between us and animals. Although we are animals by nature, social behavior is like animal competition. We are still animals when we wear clothes, but we will at least make progress, at least resist, and use our unique wise mind to create Civilized society, to suppress the brutality of restraint and the killing of the weak. In the laboratory, far from outside civilization, the wildness of animals is released, which is a reverse cage.

And the last laboratory red light alarm sounded, and the door opened, and the hope of civilized society was seen again. It's like letting everyone have a dream, a dream of returning to the wild. Although this dream is cruel, it makes people's hearts very real. Thinking about the cruelty of survival in the animal kingdom, and looking at the current civilized society, although there are many contradictions and conflicts, I suddenly find that it is really nothing.

Seeing that the male protagonist and his girlfriend are sweetly together again, my depression has also disappeared, and my heart is much more comfortable. May social civilization continue to progress and reduce conflicts and killings. We are humans, not animals!

The Experiment quotes

  • Archaleta: Justice is what keeps us safe as a society. Ordered law.

    Travis: Justice is what starts wars. And eye for and eye for an eye. It takes a turning of the cheek for this species to evolve.

    Archaleta: Ah, so you're the one who knows what it's going to take for this society to evolve.

    Travis: I'm just regurgitating what people have been saying for a long time.

  • Nix: Still think we're higher on the evolutionary chain than monkeys?

    Travis: Yeah, 'cause we can still do something about it.
