Other mistake: When Sugimura is looking for Kotohiki, he activates his scanner to see if she is nearby. The scanner shows her location, but fails to show either Mitsuko or Kiriyama, who show up quickly after.
Battle Royale (2000)
1 other mistake
Directed by: Kinji Fukasaku
Starring: Tatsuya Fujiwara, Takeshi Kitano, Aki Maeda, Taro Yamamoto
Continuity mistake: When Kawada takes the picture with Keiko on it out of his wallet, you can see the picture from behind, because the light is on it. Then, when it is handed to Noriko, the picture is a completely different one. (00:54:20)
Chigusa: Come at me. Every inch of me will resist you.
Trivia: In the film, the two transfer students are Kiriyama, the silent killer, and Kawada, the winner of a previous Battle Royale. In the original novel, only Kawada was the transfer student; Kiriyama was in the same class selected for this game of death. He was the main antagonist.
Question: I heard this movie was banned in the U.S. Is this true?
