Hello guys :D thank you for reading this thread ^^ I made it so we can discuss japanese movies and also, because I wanna find some new japanese movies to watch. Everything except hentai/porn whatever xD
So the ones I watched are: Battle Royale (even made my own trailer for it) - My rating 8-9/10
Shinobi: Heart Under the Blade (AKA Big screen time of "Basilisk" anime, AKA2 Dark side of Naruto and shinobi) - My Rating 9/10
Azumi & Azumi 2 (Very nice movie,There is no HD trailer so I'll also copy/paste plot) - My Rating 7/10
Azumi Description:
Azumi begins the film as the only girl among 10 warriors who have been trained from childhood by Jiji, a gray-bearded samurai. One day, Jiji tells them they must pass a final test before they embark on the mission they have prepared for all these years. He pairs them up, and only five survive, including Azumi. Led by Jiji, this small band descends from the mountain that is the only world they know.
Their mission, we learn, is to stop a nefarious plot to unseat the current shogun, Tokugawa Ieyasu, by the supporters of Hideyori, the son of deceased warlord Toyotomi Hideyoshi. In other words, they are out to prevent a civil war of the kind that devastated their own families before Ieyasu wrested power from his rivals at the battle of Sekigahara in 1600 and imposed peaceā¦
Death Note Movies 1 & 2 (actual plot with little changes) + 3rd - L Change The World (really enjoyed them all ^^) - I'd give 7-8/10
I also plan to watch The Girl Who Leaped Through Time (real life version) I heard its very good. :D
I personally think Japan has some really nice movies too not just anime so I hoped that we can share what we know. So guys, if anyone of you watched another japanese movie and you liked it or you think someone else here would like it, please put the name and if you can, trailer :)

Really liked Death Note Movie 1 and 2. L change the world not so much. Dont really watch japanese movies but Battle royale has been recommended by a lot of my friends so thats next on the list.
Its not exactly japanese but it is oriental so I recommend: Chocolate(2008)
Plot:
An autistic girl with powerful martial art skills looks to settle her ailing mother's debts by seeking out the ruthless gangs that owe her family money.
