Remake of Battle Royale (2003)

Rating: 2/10 (10 May 2014)

This film is a remake of the Japanese Movie "Battle Royale" 2000. And even with all the graphics it is not half better than the original one. I had already watched the Jap version before watching this thing. Well the Jap version has no heroes or heroines at the outset unlike the "Hunger Games" where Aberdale is portrayed as a skilled Marksman. And so there is a constant suspense and thrill with the Jap Part. Please take a look at the movie and decide for yourself. Hunger Games is a substandard adaptation and does not even come close. I am more sad that nobody is aware of the actual film. Its the inexplicable ability of "Hunger Games" to fool some people into taking it seriously. I would give this movie a pass and would not bother to see it again.
