I think this movie is overrated at 7.7/10.
Despite the fact that the original idea has no total logic (send kids to kill each other to evaluate life and ethics etc??), all the remaining issues have no sense as well.
1) Why their school principal (their sensei) has so important role and even the military guys obey him? He is just a school principal after all. 2) Why on earth, the military left without checking for the last 2 bodies, in order to determine the winner. They got scare of the principal?? It makes no sense.
I could count down for ever but lets stop here. The only good about this film is its main purpose, throw a bunch of people in an island and tell them to kill each other until is only one survivor. They could make a better film much easier.
P.S. The sequel (BR2) is even worse
