i also agree that the plot is a bit flawed and ridiculous but i still enjoyed watching both BR1 & BR2 for two reasons:

[1] i love japanese films (my sig is proof to that!)

[2] it's the director's reaction to Western Powers (especially the U.S.) who like to bomb and invade small asian countries....this is very evident when u watch BR2...

The first one is classic! the 2nd had a better premise, but the middle section I thought was too similar to the first film. I never realised there was a book! I must get it!

I think battle royale 2 is a bit too similiar to the first one however, all in all they are both really decent movies. I believe the fist one to be much better since its more original.

Battle Royale - 04-20-2007, 02:21 PM

was a good movie i think, i like how the winners of the game
"--->are taken to jail<---"
that's how they control the lawlessness of the youth
they don't let the winner go, hahaha
"that's why Kawada said he fell asleep and woke up here"
he was drugged in jail, and was dragged to the island
i own both movies, the 2nd movie, yes, wasn't that good
but still ok to watch, hahaha, they rip on Amerika hard in that movie

But if you want a good Battle Royale to watch,
"watch the Anime" it's fantastic
it's alot more graphic and has better detail in it
they tell a story for each player in the game

Audition was a good movie, scary, but still good
i guess the meaning of that movie is "don't have a audition for a wife" hahaha
ai to heiwa
