quote:WhiteLiteSunburn came out of the closet to say: He meant Kinji Fukasuku, who did die between productions of both films, and BR2 was directed mostly by his son, and it was his first work. I think that kinda shows in the abhorent blandness of this film. There are times when it tries to be over the top, like when 12 kids die in one sequence, but since it was the beginning of the film and every character had no definition other than "dumb punk" the audience just says "oh well" and continues watching as the movie rips off Saving Private Ryan. Then it just becomes downright preachy. The whole blatent "Amerikkka sux" message was juxtaposed with an only somewhat subtle "Osama Bin Laden is a hero" message. In addition, what the gently caress was up with the teacher character in this film? For some reason he swallows pills en masse, then shows up in the middle of a war zone in a rugby outfit. not only did this movie make sense, but it was boring, dumb, and in no way resembled the previous.
