It’s bold, but it’s also an empty provocation – it feels like a film attempting to shock rather than a film with something to actually say.

Rated: 4/10

Commercial Appeal (Memphis, TN)

It's meant to be provocative, but it's muddled and nonsensical, with none of the liveliness or cleverness of its predecessor.

Rated: 2/4

Un film qui ne possède pas le génie de son prédécesseur mais qui ose cependant un concept ayant une identité propre tout en gardant la ligne directrice du premier opus. En revanche, la subtilité à complétement disparue et fait place à une action beaucoup trop présente qui manque de substance.

Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars

Major major miss, especially when you needed to uphold the reputation of the first one.

The first film is great, this one is a major miss.

Rules go out the window; in a flash. This is an exercise in how to fully bury your own franchise, rather than extending it. The only redeeming factor it has, is that it has a couple of good moments; it has a few bright sparks - but nothing deemed worthy of a standing applause. Not worth a second viewing; but if you're so inclined - have a watch, simply to satisfy your curiosity.

Many people state this film isnt as good as the first Battle Royale, and thats true, but its also a little unfair. Both films are very different, and I think people wanted Battle Royale 2 to carry on the feel of the first film and so would come as a bit of a letdown when it was more a war film than a Lord of the Flies type movie. Battle Royale 2 is still worth watching though and is a great action packed war movie. (seek out the longer cut rather than the theatrical version though)

Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars
