Yes, I've always been admiring it, but I haven't seen it.
The idea of ​​how many films come from this, so that this film seems to have become a landmark existence.
But still somewhat disappointed. Maybe it's because I've seen a lot of similar themes.
If you take the emotional route, but there is no in-depth interpretation of human nature, if you take the action route, the children's mutual PK is obviously not bloody and violent enough, and it can't release negative emotions at all. Not to mention horror and thrillers, a film with a lot of pissing points is naturally not appealing to me.
Of course, the ending is in line with the usual dark style of Japanese movies. Even if they escape, they will live in the shadow of the BR law for the rest of their lives. There will never be peace.
Well, for this ending, it's still a 4.5-star standard.

    I watched it when the school held a sports meeting. The sun was shining outside, and I was shaking with the cold in the dormitory alone. It's a pity that Shen Zuo Xin died. The sequel that his son took is really shit. Don't need to watch it. He doesn't understand the core of his Lao Tzu's thoughts at all. Isn’t the tiger father just a dog?

    The cruelest prophecy about youth is explained by a bunch of little kids. When the desire to survive is put to the greatest test, the dark side of human nature is infinitely magnified. Uncle Takeshi Kitano and Meimei Qianming are quite loving.
