I got this movie as a gift because I like Japanese movies. I wasn't expecting much, but I was completely blown away. Oguri Shun, Takayuki Yamada, and Sosuke Takaoka really deliver! It's in-your-face with violence, but the point of it is winning loyalty and friendships with people who start out as your enemies. I don't know if there are different versions of this movie, but reading some of the other reviews on here it sounds like there may be, because the start of my movie is Genji registering for school at Suzuran. It didn't really remind me all that much about Fight Club either...it's not based around a man's imagination or underground fighting, it's about gangs of boys just trying to make it through school and the changes they have to go through along the way. I definitely recommend watching it...I have seen it many times and it only keeps getting better. The sequel is just as good.
