| BATTLE ROYALE (2000) | |
|
|
Battle Royale (BR) is a very disturbing film about 42 ninth graders on an island that have to kill each other in order to survive. BR will shake up anyone who is in their full senses while viewing this film. The violence is very graphic and impossible to escape. Nonetheless, the film has a very solid theme, trust. Where does trust stem from? Choices that we make everyday are reflecting on what and who we can trust, and this is depicted with an honest brutality in BR. On top of the trust theme there is love, friendship, anxiety, identity crisis, loss and jealousy mixed into a brutal drink that the audience will have difficulty swallowing. |
