... The girl is a winner of Battle Royale, a contest held on a
deserted island in which a group of schoolchildren must kill each other,
until only one remains and is declared winner. ... The video explains the idea of Battle Royale
and is presented by a cute, overly-enthusiastic young girl. ... The kids current teacher didnt agree with his
class selection for Battle Royale, and Kitano pulls a sheet off a table to
reveal the teachers corpse underneath. ... One of the girls, Mitsuko, takes great pleasure in the battle
and sets about righting the perceived wrongs her classmates have done her
over the years. ...
BATTLE ROYALE is a bit of a departure from style for director Kinji
Fukasaku, who is one of Japans best-known directors, largely as a result of
his extremely influential 1968 film BLACK LIZARD (aka Kurotokage). ... The idea is fine,
but there are too many holes in the plot; how come the students dont seem
to have ever heard of Battle Royale before (the media are evidently very
interested in it)?
