Story: This was my first fighting movie ever (I never even watched American fighting movies) so I didn’t go in expecting much. This movie blew me away and even more. I found the story very interesting. And despite it being based off of a manga, the characters were recreated and very interesting. Even with all the ass kicking the director still found time to add bits of humor. It wasn’t very realistic taking place at a school where the only time you see teachers is at the very beginning, but the rest of it was alright. Music: It was enjoyable. Nothing as memorable as the soundtrack to 1 Litre of Tears, but decent none the less. Cast/Acting: The only, and I mean only, reason that I wanted to try out a violent movie in the first place was because Oguri Shun stars in it (him being my favorite Japanese actor). I wasn’t disappointed. Of course like his role in Hana Kimi and Hana Yori Dango he plays a more silent and serious type and plays it even better than I’ve ever seen. I had no problem believing into his charactor. In addition to Oguri Shuns brilliant acting, I loved some of the leaders from other gangs. Mostly because, as a girl, a lot of them made great eye candy. Such as Tokio played by Kenta Kiritani, Izaki played by Sousuke Takaoka and Hiromi played by Shunsuke Daito. Even better than the eye candy were the fight scenes. No lie. SEE MORE DRAMA AND MOVIE REVIEWS HERE: http://dramadevoted.tumblr.com/
