Mild version of Battle Royale "Belko Experiment"
Think of two settings→_→:
Office escape can be on Christmas Eve, a still closed office building, completely soundproofed and completely disconnected from the outside world (required condition). A mysterious and ancient company organized a party for a hundred upper-level elites. The company prepared a total of one hundred Christmas gifts for free choice. Next, we will announce the rules of the game, bulabulabula. If you don’t die within a certain period of time, you will release poisonous gas. Weapons are the gifts in your hands...ok everyone starts to panic. Unpack the gifts... and then... all kinds of flesh and blood are flying. Accompanied by the music of Christmas Eve... The camera came two blocks away, and a desolate mother took her child home. The child looked up at the daylight building with envy. The mother told her: "That's a rich man. The carnival." The camera returns to the room full of flesh and blood, and the music fills the picture...
Well, the artist’s battle royale... can be set as a mysterious awards ceremony... the prize money is very rich, the pomp is huge, and (this is the key point) it is broadcast to the world (it can be an overhead society)... so it attracts the most popular channels at present Idol artists come to participate! The background of this story will be very exciting...Next, the venue is still fully closed but open for live broadcast, only entertainers and selected reporters enter, the happy screen bulabulabula mystery person tells the rules (this part of the rules did not expect to be particularly interesting), weapons …Find it by yourself… The most important part of this point is “live broadcasting”. The best part is to see the unknown side of idols, who first tore off the hypocritical mask and start killing… The camera sweeps out of the field, and those who usually face idols Fans of "If You Are Quiet" began to become crazy, and then screamed for their idol to kill the first person, carnival...
This theme of killing each other in order to survive can really have many settings. There are many people and few people, the length of time is different, and the venue is different... Instead, I don't like this kind of film to promote humanity. It is best not to force sensationalism, it will be more enjoyable. It doesn’t need too much foreshadowing. The establishment of characters can start from the beginning of the killing, without giving too much time to "good times", which will be cumbersome. The most necessary thing is that there must be a few symbolic characters. This is what Shen Zuoxin's second version of "Battle Royale" has done, and it's done perfectly! Also... there are fewer virgin figures, which are too noisy. In fact, people will lose control instantly in crisis situations, especially when life and death are no longer under their control. But only for an instant, most people still think calmly and quickly, and choose It is normal for the evil side and the righteous side to save yourself, but you have been crying and screaming for dementia or causing trouble. This kind of role is really less, and it is the best policy to be killed early...
In general, Belko’s experiment is mild, 10 points can give a 6.9 points, I want to stand on a moral high point to tell a story, the plot is not fast enough and the scene is not bloody (the most violent scene in the whole film is the heroine beheading with an axe. Um, it’s a close-up, and the last two shots by the male protagonist)...The whole film only started to be exciting in the middle of the film. There are more crooked elements, too long, and the host and the host are not likable. The villain is very weak... Of course, the final shots indicate that there is a big boss behind the scenes...but...the hero survived really deliberately...
The last picture is Masanobu Ando's favorite in "Battle Royale". This is the "symbolic murderer" that should exist most in mutual killing games.
