No, stay away from Battle Royale 2 at all costs- I had it too and hadn't watched it and smartt and rob longshot told me it sucked i didn't listen. Then I watched it and they were right- I couldn't even finish it on fast forward. I guess if you hate America there are some subtexts in it you might enjoy but as far as entertainment value goes it is in the shitter.


I like tsui Hark's HK flicks, I like the once upon a time in china series, the swordsman series, the early jackie chan/ sammo hung flicks and almost the entirety of the Shaw Brothers catalog.

Man, it's tough, I feel your predicament. I can see me at the video store over the next couple of weeks just staring at Battle Royal II and thinking why not? But you've given me a few other titles to check out before hand, but still I can see that Battle Royal II DVD just sitting there.

Feel like a newbie talking about Kurosawa and Ozu, but I will check out the films you mentioned Cleetus.

Hope I didn't provoke anything about Japan or Asian culture in my previous post, just interested more then anything else. Thanks guys, the list of DVD "to be rented/watched" continues to grow.
