Espectacular blockbuster basado en el trepidante manga de Nobuyuki Fukumoto acerca de una organización que recluta a gente asediada por las deudas para someterles a juegos que sirven de pasatiempo en vivo para burgueses podridos de dinero. La organización funciona como un reino, y aquellos que pierden pasan a ser esclavos de por vida, condenados a trabajos forzados en el subsuelo. Kaiji es uno de los pobres diablos sin fortuna que cae en las garras de esta peculiar mafia, terminando como esclavo. Pero él es bastante más listo que la gente con la que están acostumbrados a tratar. Synopsis by WikiDrama Edit Translation

The plot reminds me Liar Game a little, but fortunately, this movie is much better than drama. The action keeps in suspense all the time, so we can't be bored. The main character isn't naive so much or though he learn from mistakes and conclude it.

Hmm.. Though, Endo made the best business at th end.

Unlike the previous reviewer, I didn't expect anything from this film. I didn't know anything about it. I disclose this because it may have influenced how I experienced the unfolding of the plot.





I enjoyed the story. It's a combination Liar Game (Japanese drama) and 1984 (George Orwell). A secret world unfolds as a people are pitted against one another. I didn't find the the story to be predictable, but there was a slow part in the middle that made me want to fast-forward.





Generally, the main actors all over acted with the exception of Yuki Amami. Lots of screaming, crying, banging of fists, etc. This was the major downfall of the film in my opinion. I debated giving it a 4 or 5. However, I decided on 5 because the overacting did not inhibit my ability to enjoy the film, and I generally think that Japanese actors tend to overact.





The music was nice. It fit the feel of the movie. There were definitely some songs I will look up.





Overall, it's an enjoyable movie, but not a "must see before you die" film. People who liked Liar Game or The Quiz Show will probably like this movie.
