SPOILER ALERT... you've been warned.

Wow... this movie is getting such low reviews which I feel are completely undeserved. I was presented with an experience very similar to how I felt while watching "The Cube." The major difference being in "The Cube" the characters were aware that they didn't know why there were there, how they got there, and what was going on. 1/2 way through "Tank 432" I was getting pissed off thinking, "Damn - they really didn't give us much of a backstory!" We, the viewer, had no flipping clue what was going on... why the mercs where there... what their mission was... who the prisoners were... etc. etc. etc. BUT - the major BUT in this situation....... the characters in "Tank 432", unlike their counterparts in "The Cube" seemed like they knew where they were, why they were there, where they were going... That is, up until they found themselves locked inside a tank, coming mentally unwound... We become aware about 3/4 through the film that the characters are not actually in a scenario they they thought they were. It's an experiment of some sort. It has something to do with the orange powder. Many questions are left unanswered, but every so often I really love a film that leaves me kicking and screaming "Oh no you din'n't!!! Thumbs up from this guy! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2602:306:838E:AF20:EC66:4CE5:1263:603B (talk) 17:51, 5 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I cleaned up a little bit of original research you added to the plot summary. The problem is that we can't make interpretative statements about the plot – only describe what is shown. Also, the plot was already a bit long, and some of your changes pushed it beyond what the guidelines recommend for maximum length. I streamlined it back down to be compliant again. I know it's a bit frustrating to have a hard limit on the number of words allowed, but it does help to alert us that our plot summaries are becoming too detailed. Once they go past the maximum length, the plot summaries can become a chore to get through and sometimes do more harm than good to an article. I tried to include enough detail that readers can understand the various questions raised in the film (such as who these people are and why they're in a forest), but there's a limit to what we can do on Wikipedia without it running afoul of our content guidelines. The IMDb is a better place to go in depth on a film's plot and discuss theories/meanings. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 03:52, 6 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
