Batoru rowaiaru II: Chinkonka (2003)
A Very Different Experience
When I saw Battle Royale 2 I didn't know what to expect. However as a big fan of the original I was looking forward to it. I guess the reason it isn't very popular is probably because it wasn't what anyone expected. I for one was taken back buy the opening scene on the island that looked like something out of Saving Private Ryan not a battle royale sequel. I guess it should be taken as a high concept action movie rather than a battle royale sequel. Mainly because this is a very different experience from the original Battle Royale none the less still a very enjoyable one at that. This doesn't mean the film is without its faults some of the acting is crappy. While the sentimental ending does slightly ruin the overall tone of the film.

It's All About Love (2003)
Underrated
I went to see this film just a week ago as it has just been given a limited release in the U.K. I didn't have high hopes for the film due to the poor reviews. However when I saw it I was pleasently surprised by the great cinematography and the quirky storyline. This is by far one of the best films I have seen so far this year. 8/10
criminally underrated
