Battle Royale

[Ziggy]

A movie where a random class of Japanese ninth grade student are in this fictional universe, randomly selected by a fascist government lottery. They become kidnapped on a class trip and forced onto an isolated island, where they are equipped with food, water, a map and a random weapon (some suck, some kick ass). On the island, they have to compete in a violent death match game till only one single victor remain. If they dont wish to compete, break the rules, or dont finish killing everybody in the time limit given, the collars around their neck explode. Obviously killing them lol.

Only bad part about this movie is the subtitles. Its a japanese novel turned to movie. Havnt finished it yet, watching it right now, just letting it fully load. But for all those interested, heres the link to watch it.

Finished watching the movie. Loved the idea for the movie, but probably could have been better if paramount or one of those huge western movie companies filmed and made it. Dont know if they were using pea shooters in the movie, cause a lot of ppl were still able to get up even after being shot a few times, but then again, it happens a lot in western movies too so, no real difference there.

Overall, liked the idea for the movie, thought it was pretty good.

I LOVE Battle Royale. I love Asian cinema in general. 9th grades killing each other in vicious ways--how much better can it get? lol
