"Kaiji 2: The Ultimate Gambler" is a Drama movie and the sequel of the "Kaiji: The Ultimate Gambler" franchise, in which we watch Kaiji being one more time in debt one year after the events of the first movie. Another chance to wipe away his new debt comes in front of him and for one more time he has to take that risk.
Since I had already watched the first movie I had some expectations from its sequel but I believe it did not reach its potential and it isn't as good as the first one. The plot contained some interesting twists and unpredictable moments but they were not enough to make it a great movie as the first one. The direction which was made by Tôya Satô who was the director of the first movie was good and he tried to maintain the interest of the audience following his successful steps of the first movie. Unfortunately, he did not succeed mainly because most of the people would have already watched the first movie so, they knew what to expect. To sum up, I have to say that "Kaiji 2: The Ultimate Gambler" is not a bad movie, it isn't just as good as the first but still worth watching.
