Enjoy hitting yourself repeatedly over the head with a hammer?
24 July 2006
By the time you get 1 hour into this movie you'll be either turning it off or as in my case begging the guy with the DVD remote to fast forward through the rest of it and eventually getting so painfully bored you just stand up and walk out saying "I'm sorry but I just can't watch anymore of this" Enjoy hitting yourself repeatedly over the head with a hammer? Then you may enjoy the torture of watching this.

I enjoyed the first one but the general point of Battle Royale is that it has frantic intense emotion throughout and that there is some hope that a winner may emerge. This movie felt like it was a bunch of depressed self-absorbed idiots trying to appear emotional. It was like watching someone play Metal Gear Solid. Lots of action and shooting and once they clear a level you get a 40 minute cutscene except the cutscenes were diabolically boring and stupid and the shooting was just a load of seen it all before.
