Violent games Another creation of director Yohei Fukuda, whose work is displayed in films with bloody and violent themes that occur due to excessive aggression of teenagers and the surrounding society. I’ve already seen a few of his films and despite the blood and brutality, I liked it, so I decided to watch this film.
Hayato Fujiwara is a young and handsome guy who is a member of a gang of teenagers who bully weak schoolchildren, he does not participate in bullying directly, but he does not help unfortunate victims. His thoughts are filled with loneliness and sadness, that there are two types of people in the world, one weak and the other strong, and only those who are strong can survive. But one day he becomes a target for other people participating in a network game. And now he has to play it to keep his biggest secret.
Advantages, such films by genre can be attributed to a psychological thriller, in which there is a certain meaning and certain rules. In addition, in the film, I liked the plot quite original and interesting, what a person is ready to go to to hide his secret.
Deficiency, cruelty and blood, there are no good and bad heroes, there is an anonymization of the personality and its transformation into one gray personality, which has no purpose, morality and humanity. Some protracted because the film has a sufficient long timekeeping, which repeats its plot again and again.
Verdict, I advise the most loyal fans of Japanese horror films.
