BATTLE ROYALE (Kinji Fukasaku)

Almost broken, high unemployment rate and violence is very scarce, kids are boycotting their class and physically abusing their teachers, the government has approved the battle royale act. which states that a randomly selected class would be chosen to participate the game, a game of life and death with the prize of your own life.

Battle Royale is about the story of 42 students sent in a deserted island with little foods and 1 weapon. The students have 3 days to kill each other until 1 survives or they all gonna die.

This movie shows total violence. and i admire japanese in producing a movie like these. but as i watch this film nothing is special in this film (and i dont know how did it win the most popular movie awards given by the japanese academy)
there are so many mistakes in this movie. first is the bag given by the army to the students, it's so small for a crossbow to fit in it. and when Yuka Nakagawa is poisoned, her face lands in the bowl of poisoned spaghetti. A little later as the girls begin shooting each other, her face is now out of the bowl, and on the table instead. Little informations like these would affect the impact of the violence of the movie.

If you're the type who watch POSO (shame of the indonesians) and enjoys it, this movie woul;d surely fit your taste
