I must be the only person who didn't like Battle Royale. People kept talking about how awesome it was, so I watched it on Netflix. I just didn't see the allure. Maybe it's because for me the most interesting part of the Hunger Games wasn't the games, but the larger dystopia in which they existed. In Battle Royale, it was just kids fighting to the death only because the gov't thought teenagers were jerks. And frankly, most of them were jerks and I didn't care enough about any of them to care what ultimately happened to them.

To be honest, I think the movie is really campy. But I had read the manga first, and that was... well, it was something. It was obviously trying to shock and disturb you, but it was so damn successful at that even though the agenda was clear. The crazy gore is almost an artistic choice. And in the manga, each character, each classmate, is also given a personality, and that couldn't really happen in the movie. Plus, the antagonist is different, and just creepy and terrifying without trying to be redeemable.

I hear people say the books are best but I haven't read them.
