Look at "Battle Royale" again

Japanese director Shinji Fukasaku's "Battle Royale II" feels that the second part is more depressing than the first. The second part still adheres to the style of the first: bloody and violent. The film also reflects the repressive psychology of the Japanese nation and seems to be more satirical to the government.

But the second part seems to be inferior to the first part that can reflect the other side of human nature. At the end, Qihara Qiuya's words and the feeling of driving into the distance are the same as at the end of the movie "Terminator 1." It is difficult to wonder about the future of these children. Although the successor director Fukasaku Kinji's son Fukasaku Kenta said that the film will not have a sequel, I still have doubts. Maybe there will be a so-called "prequel" without a sequel.

    It's a joke compared to the first one

    Extremely boring, inexplicably not up to the point, directly open up sensational, naive values, crying wolf howling neurotic performance, all the advantages of the previous work are lost, Shen Zuo Kinji, your son is not his own.
