Review of Battle Royale (2000) by Job P — 30 Jul 2012

This Movie is a Cult classic, it's based upon a controversial novel by Koushun Takami (the same name), I remember my sister talking about this movie and how she thought it was strange and an odd movie to get into, well I love this movie (a new favourite of main) & it epic! In everything it shows in the movie. The directions were a little of key but was terrific how Kinj Fukasaku shot this movie. To me the actors & actress were really on the spot for this movie & made it feel very really & that it shows honesty, betrayal, the length of love/friendship, love, fights, killing/murdering, sex, violence, action/weapons, knowledge, all character getting screen time mystery, conclusion & of course the main point and source of the movie is survival (killed or be killed). The characterization has really showcase of all the cast & how they developed their characters to feel really & the depth set into the movie with the characters, it amazed me by surprise how well the actors did a brilliant & full of energy/focussing on the job. It has a superb plot & awesome dialogue, which I thought it was smartly written. The subtitles where able to read in the time only paused four times which is great (not included pausing for the information on which boy or girl/there numbers being showed on the screen).This movie really did have a cool music score which worked super well in the movie, which was huge enjoyable to listen to. The violence, sick blood & twisted killing was cleverly done which made it look very really and the mission of this movie did captive me in a fear, suspense and to which I was totally hooked & glue to this movie on T.V. I really like the sweet & strong relationship that Shuya Nanahara and Noriko Nakagawa had & were my favourite characters in the film and where on the run after the killing mission that they went through on Battle Royale act and they were on the Run. I like the credits showing class B the school photo shot (adding the other two that weren't actually in the class). I thought it was a decent Idea doing something like that because this was set in the future, where 10 million Japanese people were unemployed, killing them self (e.g. Suicides) was happening at a higher rate and the population of the adult/elders generation were getting robbed, mocked & murdered by the young generation. They began a new law by a course called Battle Royale act, which they set an example of how the young generation should respect their elders. The survival guild insure only one will survive and the others will die if more than one survive they all die. I have to say the most funniest moment in the movie was when Kitano-Sensei character thought he was dead, as his phone begins to ring, he get up answers it & starts talking, while the last three people reaction were panicking & horrified on how he was still live was funny, but he did died.

(As well there is going to be an American remake either into a movie of T.V show which is sounds bad how theyâ(TM)re going to make in a TV series, so please to fucking do it, but if they remake it into a movie, if this dose happen can I audition the part of Kazuo Kiriyama & learn how to speak Japanese, it would be a dream role). EPIC Movie!!!! That is a new favourite foreign movie of main with its Cult statues and it's a huge Impacted to World Cinema and it a massively impressive piece of performances, filmmaking, screenplay & originality ideas of its Cult foreign movie statues that is Battle Royale (Which it will live on as a Cult classic, world classic Cinema)..
