Cruel Youth Story "Battle Royale"

I have seen the introduction to the movie "Battle Royale" for a long time, but after watching it, it still gave me a great shock. Why would the Japanese make such a movie? The director is Fukasaku Shinji, I don't know very well, but it is said that a Japanese hall-level director came to make this film that he always wanted to make when he was very old. If I remember correctly, it was 2002. Originally wanted to make a sequel to Fan, but passed away, his son completed it for him, the style is the same, I can't see any difference. But didn't see it.

The story takes place in Japan in modern society. For teenagers who increasingly distrust adults, the country's high-level officials have formulated a set of laws called the "New Century Education Reform Law" known as the "BR Law". Every year, a class is picked across the country and they kill each other on an uninhabited island until the last person is left. For three days, the dead people and the restricted area will be broadcast every few hours. If you are in the restricted area, the collar around your neck will explode. If there are more people in the time, the collars around their necks will also automatically explode.

They dubbed it a game.

Each of them has two bottles of water, a flashlight, a map, and a bag that will have weapons in it, but everyone is different. Murder pistols, submachine guns, grenades, bows, daggers, axes, scythes, body armors for self-defense, stun guns, locators, pot lids, binoculars, amplifiers, paper fans, etc. thing. .

In addition to the military, the organizers of this event also had their former class teacher. There were 42 people in the class and 2 people who joined later, but in the end, only one boy and one girl survived.

That's how the story started, they were nothing more than a graduation trip, but they were drawn. The entire class was brought to the island in a coma.

Their head teacher died at the beginning, looking hideous. Two classmates began to resist, one was stabbed in the forehead, and the other's collar exploded. One by one, students who began to think it was a joke began to believe what was happening in front of them.

They went out one by one, each with their own name, and died one by one. Some people entered this killing game from the very beginning, some people used their beauty to kill their classmates; some couples chose to commit suicide, some people were forced to kill people, some people shouted peacefully and tried to be killed, Some killed each other because of distrust. But some people try to escape from the beginning, some people are looking for people who like themselves and their favorite people, and tell them to protect them.

For one reason or another, I don't want to watch it again, even if I don't remember their names, I just remember numbers and death lists appearing on the screen as the radio plays.

The last two survivors became nationally wanted criminals, and they continued to flee, but they were now armed wherever they were. Finally, there are two very striking words, escape.

The story is absurd, but I'm still a bit.... I can't believe I've watched such a horror movie that isn't a horror movie by myself, with blood everywhere and grim expressions on people's faces. It is impossible for China to make such a film, and it will definitely be banned if it is made.

The details inside can make people dig deeper, and I dare not move when I look at it. Some people may see this film and think that such a person is very perverted to kill people. Yes, this story is very absurd, and it cannot really appear in the real society. However, the thinking caused by the film is confusion and distrust of the future. .

Everyone who sees it will have a different feeling. It is recommended that timid people bring something like a pillow. This film should not be seen in the cinema, it is too "exciting" and can't bear it. It is recommended to watch it with friends, although it may be very quiet after watching this film, and there is nothing to communicate with.

    When I was in college in 2005, I liked it like crazy. Then I watched it three times in a week. When I got home, I recommended it to my parents to watch [I'm Crazy]. It is always the pinnacle of this genre.
