Battle Royale

Me and my dad saw this on Tarantino’s top 20 of the 21st century, so I thought i’d watch it to see if it was really worthy. And this really is a top film, for having such a young cast this film really could’ve been make or break from the get go, but the cast works exceptionally well together with good dynamics and relationships across the forty sum students. Building off that the way that the film got to most of the characters out of the forty and showed their personalities was really unique and I feel if this were more modern it would generally focus on the depth and characteristics of around 8-10 characters. The early 2000s and 90s quality and camera work is also just so iconic not to bring up because this film looks really well cinematically. Also, the amount of things this could’ve inspired in modern life is crazy, stuff like the hunger games have obviously relating qualities to this film, but I personally think this film is better than any hunger games movie.
