Reviews
The Stanford Prison Experiment has a calm, queasy, clinical tone, the filmmakers hewing as closely to the actual events as they can. The approach works mostly superbly.Tim Grierson, Paste Magazine
An incredibly tense indie with strong performances across the entire ensemble ... a who's who of great, young male actors.Austin Trunick, Under the Radar
