I have to admit that this movie moved me on many levels. After getting over the initial shock of what is, for very expedient reason, considered to be not objective a violent film but also a very disturbing one in terms of subject - this movie I am convinced is destined to become a cult classic. As mentioned previously, Battle Royale is an unforgiving movie but like all broad films there are pockets of resistance and liberation. This exceedingly disturbing and deeply saddening film about watching young kids killing each other out of a primal need to survive should disturb anyone with a shred of humanity left in them. What should be famed is that in this case of art imitating life it opens up a portal of consideration of how people may react in this type of location and the inherent complexity contained therein.
No matter what critics say about its violence Battle Royale is really a legend about character. Based on the original by Takami Koshun, Battle Royale is lively on many. One method to glance the movie is in terms of a not so distant future Japan (which is this case can stand in as a metaphor to other countries) where the government’s trepidation about rampant juvenile delinquency and the a lost generation’s blatant disregard for order and the rule of law has caused it scrutinize more immediate and less creative ways to deal with the plight, the solution: the systematic annihilation of teenagers. In this case, selected groups of high school kids are deceived and carted of to an undisclosed site, given weapons and supplies and a mission - to end each other. In an orgy of blood and gore the last person standing is allowed to go home. This, at least for me, brings up two very difficult questions: Is it a yarn about extermination or discipline? If it is, what possible attend can be derived from this?
Returning snappily to the relate of “character,” it is sharp to recognize how director Kinji Fukasaku and writer Kenta Fukasuka bring Takami Koshun’s fresh to the camouflage. It is also though-provoking to stare how director Fukasaku controls a herd of cats in a powerhouse cast of 40+ characters that includes Beat Takeshi’s rendition of Kitano as well as the portrayal of Shuya (Tatsuya Fujiwara), Noriko (Aki Maeda), Shougo (Taro Yamamoto), Kazou (Masanobu Ando), Mitsuko (Kou Shibasaki) and Takako (by Extinguish Bill’s Chiaki Kuriyama) . I was intrigued to seeing how some of the characters reacted to stressful situations that in some places (unless you notice the film at least twice) are lost around the films central motif of coarse ruthlessness and violence.

Needless to say that despite the films depraved cinematography and primitivistic tendencies - it being residence in a tropical island and all - not to mention the almost mandatory erotic undertones, it is more than anything, a movie about a society on the verge of imploding. It is eminent that Fukasaku’s motivations for making the movie transcend politics and society. Dilemma: if your survival rested on you killing your best friends, would you do it? This is the circumstance in Battle Royale and it is a very titillating one. This brutal premise and what happens next is inevitably - a very cruel film. Fukasaku rendition has a Lord of the Fliesesque quality about it. I cannot stress how colossal a movie this is though. Overall, this is one of the most notion provoking, disturbing, and much films released. I was not surprised that this film has not been released in the US but honest like the saga of “RINGU” - my guess is that inevitably this film will be hijacked as well - it is the Hollywood diagram.
Another “layer” to be uncovered from this blood-soaked saga is how Fukasaku calls to expect a Japanese society whose rage over youth delinquency (as mentioned previously) and has gone so far to imagine a `final solution.’ If it was Fukasaku’s intent, it got me thinking that if such a solution were attach in spot the results would be a fight to the death will be a traumatized, inflamed and extremely mentally agile mind would be released help on society - making the plight doubly worse - as if the society is cultivating violence. In Battle Royale Fukasaku is plan provoking again in that he allows for pockets of resistance and moments of female empowerment. The sub-plot of hacking in to the system and destroying the whole game and the scenes with Mitsuko (Kou Shibasaki) although not unusual add a particular liberating quality to the film. However there tranquil is lingering the disturbing theme of Battle Royale, dealing as it does with the corollary of a system of violence transferred from generation to generation thus perpetuating a cycle of violence. In the waste, the hub of the Battle Royale films is that violence without doubt impacts children. Is this what we want as a future for them? A wild, sexy, and belief provoking film that begs to be watched more than one time to be fully appreciated.

It’s the future… Kids have stopped going to class, and are becoming pests. So the government has started a original program called the “BATTLE ROYALE SURVIVAL PROJECT.” What happens is that one class of 9th graders a year is chosen by unbiased lottery to go onto a deserted island. The kids then accept ‘voted off’ the island. And by ‘voted off’ I mean they raze each other. Each kid gets a bag, inside is food, water, a procedure, and a random weapon. With this weapon, they are ordered to slay each other until one remains.
This movie has everything. Violence, region, character development (somewhat — enough to satasfy me), and an astonishing epic. It’ll preserve you on the raze of your seat, or couch, or whatever.
Oh, and if you go out and witness the fresh Tarantino movie, Raze BILL, the actress that plays Liu’s bodyguard is one of the kids from Battle Royale.
Buy this movie. I can’t stress it enough.
