I LOVE LOVE LOVE this film, even though the acting sucks majorly. And I found myself loving the psycho Kiriyama haha!
I heard that there will be a remake of this? I also read one volume of the manga and it seems very intriguing. Anyway, my favorite storyline is the kid who has a crush on someone but is too shy to say it. The one who has a girl bestfriend and his bestfriend is in love with him. I want to watch it now again Thanks for opening this thread! |

Hi everyone; we’ve briefly discussed this movie in the Foreign films thread in the past, but I thought it deserved its own thread because there’s so much to talk about (be it school cliques, extreme violence, the education system etc) and it’s quite a cult classic.
If you want to be added, please just ask in the thread or PM. Discuss! __________________

Thanks for this Gwen! I haven't watched this one in years, I'd need to remember a lot!
There's been rumour of an American version of this for years, but nothing has come from it. |

I'm pleased. The American remake of OLDBOY was dull. Favorite scene(s)? Favorite pairing? __________________

For me, it was the love story between Sugimura and Kotohiki They were like the Romeo + Juliet of the story. Just as he finds her, tragedy strikes -

It is a heart-stopping moment when she realizes that he wasn't going to hurt her She reacts on impulse and immediately regrets it.
I recommend watching the Extended Cut It includes many flashbacks that delve further in to the characters' histories. __________________

It's been on Netflix and then gets removed. So when it's added again, I'll have to watch.

Great I don't like that people call it "the original Hunger Games." It's its own thing.

That's just stupid IMO. I've heart it too, and it's just to garner attention to a movie IMO.
