When 54 high school girls throw themselves in front of a subway train it appears to be only the beginning of a string of suicides around the country. Does the new all-girl group Desert have anything to do with it? Detective Kuroda tries to find the answer, which isn't as simple as he had hoped.

Mostly, the movie is committed to the value of a good time.

This film is God. Great plot. Great Message. Great Form. Great Humour. Great Commentary.Acting is good, the characters are archetypes so fits the purpose.Needs at least 2 viewings to get through the meaning. The plot is labyrinthine, while the first characters change through the film. But don't get distracted, the message is there.I saw it at the first year of film school, still have a crush on that film.The effects may seem out of date if you are not tolerating irony very well. 10/10.Would watch again and again and again.

This movie has a good concept and social criticism. I understand it but don't think you have to be a genius for this. Or that the movie is for whom understand. This is the ultimate bullshit when someone try to defend something.The execution is awful. Could be a matter of culture, but they can't show emotion. The acting is bad. It is the kind of movie that don't worries in make any sense, provided that the concept was spited to the audience.The only message I will take with me is that I must kill myself for have a bad taste for music (some people for movies).obs: Are those songs anesthetics? Why the child on the phone (presumably a minion of the crap band) has to clear his/her throat every damn line?

I enjoyed this movie for the most part,gore and all.well done mostly.Although i did not like the true and real animal cruelty/torture in the film and for that reason i just cannot watch that part again,it haunted me once i found out if was not fake...hard to deal with.i am fine with fake gore with humans but not real cruelty with animals but thats just me,many people that see this film would not even bat an eye at it but i did and i had nightmares.This film follows detectives trying to figure out why so many teenagers are committing suicide,it had plenty of blood,guts and gore which is always fun.Not the best Asian gore film iv seen but it was worth watching.

Suicide club starts with 54 smiling, singing high school girls inexplicably link hands and jumping onto the tracks of an oncoming bullet train. Their deaths seems to trigger a wave of suicides all over Japan. A detective sets out to discover the root of all the deaths, but discovers something more disturbing..I heard some good things about this film and how it had a cult following but I have to say that I regret my decision to watch it. Asian cinema is pretty extreme and this film is no exception, lots of gore, blood flying around, body parts being cut, animals and people being killed, people getting skinned and so forth, this is definitely not a film for squeamish people. Having said that, I have no problem with extreme films and that is not the reason why I disliked this film so much. Simply put, Suicide Club is one of the most nonsensical, incoherent and disordered films I have seen. The story is incredibly convoluted and makes very little sense. Yes, you can draw some parallels and see the film as a big metaphor for the value of life but still, the all thing is really far-fetched and disjointed. The acting was pretty decent actually. The camera work however was a bit nauseating.Any conclusions that you take from this film will be very loose because there's not much support in the story. It really is a question of how you want to interpret this film. And I don't have anything against ambiguous films but this one is truly open to any kind of interpretation and that doesn't make for a very good film in my opinion.4/10
