Aroview: Bolder and bloodier sequel that introduces 9/11-style terrorist topicality into its violent, 'last teen standing' scenario, with overt allusions to America's war against terrorism.
Under the BRII act, the government forcibly recruits forty-two Junior High students to hunt terrorist and original BR survivor Nanahara and his cohorts down in their island stronghold. They are given a very reasonable 72 hours to complete the mission or pay the ultimate penalty.

4 stars (Very Good) More violent than the first BR, the premise remains very much the same, with a bigger budget, more special effects, less suspense and more blood. Not quite as great as the original, but a worthy sequel. ~Tom H
