This ultra violent satire from Japan tells of 42 teenagers taken to a remote island where they are told that if they wish to survive they must kill all of the others!
This film is not for the faint hearted.
Adapted from the book of the same name, this film does not hold back on the violence. although i don't think that hurts the film in any way. Battle Royale comes over as a very adult film with teenagers in (not the other way around; don't show this to your kids!) and i think that it succeeds in gripping the audience from beginning to end. Would definitely recommend Battle Royale if only for the reason that it makes you wonder- what would you do if you jad to kill your classmates for survival?

With school children all over the country growing increasingly delinquent, the Japanese government takes decisive action and introduces the Battle Royale Act. The Act sets forth a plan whereby a class will be chosen at random and flown to a remote island, where each student will then be given a weapon and set loose to fight their classmates, each student knowing that only one of their number will be allowed to leave the island alive. When Class B of Zentsuji Middle School are chosen to take part in the massacre, the different students quickly take sides against each other, but Shuya and Noriko form an alliance and try to weather it through together.
