The Royale continues...
4 January 2005
Battle Royale 2 (2003) was a step down from the first film. There's something missing from this movie that I can't quite point out. The movie is very violent but that's not it. Direction and acting was up to snuff, but that's not it. Maybe the presence of a strong antagonist. Yeah, that's it! Although the movie is not as brilliant as the first one, it's still a whole lot better than anything Hollywood has put out.

The Japanese government is trying to crush a terrorist group called the Wild Seven. The leader of this militant group is being led by a survivor of the last Battle Royale. So a new class is forced to participate in another round of the Royale with different rules. Their mission is to go back to the island and ferret out the Wild Seven.

Not as great as the first film, but it's still better than anything Hollywood has cranked out. I have to recommend this movie. It's entertaining and a good watch. You wont be disappointed.
