Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaQuentin Tarantino was offered a role but couldn't do it because of scheduling. He said, "They wanted me to play the President of the United States."
- GoofsDuring the gunfight between the terrorists and the students, in the rundown building, a cable can be seen supporting Kurosawa.
- Quotes
Shiori Kitano: The thing people fear most isn't dying, it's being forgotten.
- Crazy creditsTowards the end of the credits a flag is shown, followed by black and white stills from the action sequences in the movie and then a black and white photo of the whole class that participated in the BR2 act, then another BW still of Nanahara and his comrades, and lastly a BW shot of director Kinji Fukasaku.
- Alternate versionsIn UK, the extended version had to be cut by 8 seconds. The one cut required was to remove the Japanese text and English subtitle which state: "This film is restricted to aged 15 and over," in order to avoid confusion as it received an 18 rating from BBFC.

Featured review
I was not Prepared for this!
I loved the first Battle Royale and I was expecting an amazing sequel, just by looking at the tagline I got excited (This time it's war). But what I got what something more than a sequel, I got a masterpiece. It's not you're average Japan film, this film has the sought of action that makes films like Black Hawk Down and Aliens look like playground fights because as soon as the game starts you are given some of the greatest combat battle scenes you will ever see. I was not prepared to see this amount of action.
The first film had a lot of characterization and I read this film didn't really have a point to it, but it does, and that point is you should always fight for what you believe in at all costs. The characters in this film I cared for just as much as I did for the first Battle Royale. I heard also before seeing it that it had a lot of political views about it that ripped America and people didn't like it, but it's pretty much the truth and I guess no one expected a film like Battle Royale 2 to make that kind of statement where you'd expect it from anything involving Michael Moore. But this film is the bollocks especially if you were a fan of the first one, but a few of my friends didn't like the second one compared to the first but I have to say I loved this film and it just more than what you ask for. Anybody who reads this and doesn't know about it then get your arse to Cdwow.com as it's only 6.99 on double disc and trust me it's not only 6.99 for a double DVD, it's the best 6.99 you'll ever spend on a double DVD and if anyone disagrees with that then they are obviously not looking at Battle Royale 2 for what it is and that is the GREASTEST ACTION FILM OF ALL TIME
