The Exam 2024

The set-up is obviously borrowed from a vastly superior Italo-Argentinian-Spanish co-production "The Method": a number of carefully selected candidates gathered in a secluded room are supposed to hold a tricky qualification test. The sole winner that complies with stringent (yet noticeably weird) restraints and finds the right solution to an obscure assignment will eventually grab a high executive position with a company (noone is aware of). Capable cast, credible acting, elaborate and well thought-out dialogs, promising start, gradually elevating suspense and tension among the candidates will maintain interest throughout (almost) the entire length of the film. I only have a minor question: Would you believe that such minuscule and perhaps insignificant detail as nonsensical ending (based on a ludicrous resolution worthy of kindergarten) may be so dumb that it can easily betray high expectations and completely ruin initially positive impression? Any more questions?

There's only one reason to watch this film and that's to see what happens at the end. There are hundreds of reasons why not to watch it: dodgy premises, implausibility, wooden script, a cast of 'characters' who have no character at all bar Mr White who has his moments. There's also an utter lack of humour and acting that you're more likely to find at Hackney council's Wednesday adult evening workshop class. Man, that bespectacled guy was a real cringe to watch. Implausibility can be OK in a film if it's engaging but this takes a turn for the worse about half way through when our unlikeable characters turn brutal and sadistic and begin a fest of gratuitous violence towards each other and violently/sexually assaulting one of the women. I can't believe some of the good reviews for this trash. Is that really what people want to see in a film? Not me. This tries to pass itself off as arty smarty but like other films of its ilk it's ultimately just unimaginative, depressing and meaningless. And if you do get hooked in to the end you're gonna be very disappointed with the 'twist'. My advice? Don't bother.
