Ahaha 'pretty damn good'. Ok it was good up until they arrived on the island, at that point the original director must have snuffed it and his son went on to make the rest of the film INCREDIBLY DULL.
Battle Royale pretended to be intelligent but it really boiled-down to kids killing each other in a variety of ways. That's what the sequel should have been, instead it turned into complete rubbish with people running about in the middle of a gunfight talking about 'always forever being friends forever friends etc etc' so much that you wanted to puke. Oh and the awfully implemented 'war philosophy' guff that simply doesn't come across as interesting or informative, it's just preachy and incredibly boring.
Utter utter crap.
And it never seemed to end! I'd put it alongside Cabin Fever for being a movie that takes a great idea and completely ruins it through countless poor decisions and then not editing it all down to some manageable running time.
manga = comics
also Battle Royal 2 was pretty damn good, you`re just fed up because it wasn`t a rehash of the first one. the 2nd one is more about the politics of it all and stuff. i can certainly see why some people DON`T like it though.
Also I thought anime was japanese animation and manga was japanese comics?
At the end of the day if you want to call it manga, graphic novels or whatever else they get known as these days, all of that stuff is still known as comics.
Its just one is Anime.
Finally, yes it is sophisticated, the manga offers far more plot development and character background then the movie does.
