The reception from the media was quite weak in Japan, an avarage rate given. The movie didn't make enough money in the box office as previously planned, less than the previous movie. A special version is released in the cinemas early next year.

A review from Kffcinema http://www.kfccinema.com/reviews/action/battleroyale2/battleroyale2.html

Sequels never do as good as the original (except maybe Godfather II)...

U missing out on so much drama. :shakehead:

Watched ju on yesterday, so freeky...the whole cinema just 10 of us ( my fren and i ) plus a couple. Those eyes were soo creepy... 2 of my friends keep screaming, made me laugh and forgot that i'm scared too :sweat: , but they repeat the same thing, somebody saw something, and the got killed or missing......i still frightened by it even though i knew that it will happen....again. :sweat:

Luckily dun have those blood oozing scenes, disgusting corpse, body parts......
Guess i'm quite a easily get afraid person..... :sweat:

i just watched that yesterday too...
my 2nd time...
pretty scary..heheheh..but i think the eye is much horrifying

I hear Juon is a type of Ring movie. No gore scenes, ppl are scared with horrified audio atmosphere and scary looks (Ring cover :sweat: ) :mrgreen: Haven't seen the movie, been to lazy to download it. Actually I haven't watched any Japanese movies lately, didn't feel like watching. I'd love to see more drama movies :) Japanese are good at it. Emule :sweat: :shakehead:

There are loads of gore movies from Japan. They are masters at it, hehe.

Yeah, Jap is sorta considered offensive... There's a sticky thread about it somewhere on this message board...

Being from Finland, you couldn't have known, so don't worry about it... I just thought I'd let you know... It's all cool... :D

Oh, and welcome! :applaud:

I'm sure some of these (if not all) have been posted, but I haven't had a chance to fully look through all the posts in this forum. So, if any of these have been posted, I'm sorry! :sweat:

Odoru Daisousasen THE MOVIE (Oda Yuji, Fukatsu Eri, Yusuke Santa Maria, Mizuno Miki)
RETURNER (Kaneshiro Takeshi, Kishitani Goro, Suzuki An)
Onmyouji
Shisha no Gakuensai (Fukada Kyoko, Kato Masaya)
Space Travelers (Kaneshiro Takeshi)
WHITE OUT (Oda Yuji, Matsushima Nanako)
Crossfire (Yada Akiko)

Those are just off the top of my head. Umm...you don't need to have watched the original "Odoru" series to enjoy the movie (I didn't see the series, but I LOVED the movie). "RETURNER" is just plain cool. The same for "Onmyouji." "Shisha no Gakuensai" is cool if you liked "Scream" or those kinds of teen slasher movies. "Space Travelers" has a great cast (though I can't remember the names of everyone off the top of my head) and a very good story. I compare "WHITE OUT" to Sylvester Stallone's "Cliffhanger" (which I also liked--so sue me :twisted:). And "Crossfire" has elements of Stephen King's "Firestarter," but is far and away much better.

If I can think of anything else, I'll let post it here again!
