However, it must be said that the feature film Battle Royale was marked as both crude and tasteless by the respected members of the Parliament of Japan along with other responsible government officers, in charge of various departments. From the first screening of the film there was a debate on the subject of governnment action over media violence. But nothing deterred the film Battle Royal regarding grossing ¥3.11 billion from the domestic market. Though being severely discredited by the members of the top most echelons of the Parliament of Japan, it was widely acclaimed by the common audience. At the Academy Awards of Japan in 2001, the film was felicitated with many awards. It got the award for Best Film, Best Direction, Best Script, Best Starring Actor, Best Soundtrack and Best Sound Recording categories. Besides the film managed to bag the award in the category of Best Editing, and also the Battle Royale won the audience popularity prize for a film.

When there are good subjects, there can be good films. We have heard this sermon for ages, but excpet a handful, how many good films are there in reality! There have been too good subjects ranging from the human rights violations in Bosnia to the latest epic controversy over Iraq. How many films worth mentioning have been made or are in the process? But we must affirm that sometimes one or two films hit the theatre, whose spell refuses to die down even after many years. The Battle Royale, a film released on December 16, 2000 in Japan on the basis of a novel of the same name, is the finest specimen of this account.
