About this movie

In a massive, mysterious room, fifty strangers awaken to find themselves trapped with no memory of how they got there. Organized in an inward-facing circle and unable to move, they quickly learn that every two minutes, one of them must die… executed by a strange device in the center of the room. At first, the attacks seem random, but soon the strangers realize that they, as a group, have the power to decide who will be the next to be killed. A vote. A chance to control the machine. But how can they choose who deserves to die? And what happens when there's only one person left? Circle is a film about people and what they do under the worst possible circumstances. A film about what makes us human - who we are, what we believe, and ultimately, the lengths we will go to save ourselves.

It was a very decent movie. There could have been a lot more backstory but it went well without it. SPOILERS AHEAD The people in the circle could have been more methodical with their votes instead of killing off a random person most of the movie. They could have also shown another circle in which they figured out how to get multiple people out, just so it adds that feeling that both the child and the pregnant woman could have lived but didn't. All in all great movie though

It's in no way psychological. They have to choose who lives and who dies, and since one participant is pregnant and one is a child it's not hard to figure out the "dilemma". The movie is just half the people trying to vote them out to give everyone a fair chance while the other half tries to keep them alive.

STUPID MOVIE. IT WAS SUPPOSED TO BE ABOUT CHOICES PEOPLE MAKE IN LIFE AND HUMANITY. ..INSTEAD, IT WAS JUST 50 PEOPLE STANDING AROUND POINTING OUT EACH OTHER 'S FAULTS.
