Story:
The naïve Kanzaki Nao and expert swindler Akiyama Shinichi have not heard anything from the LIAR GAME organization since the end of the previous game, so it seems they may have actually escaped. But Nao suddenly gets another invitation and is once again caught up in the game. This time, she has to team up with Shinichi and one of their previous rivals named Fukunaga, facing off against three more opponents in new games of deception, such as "24 Rensou Russian Roulette" and "17 Poker


My Review:

Now I know this isn't a movie, it isn't even in English but damn! I couldn't resist. So my friend Kari (love you boo boo!) got me addicted to Japanese/Korean dramas in Univeristy and I totally had to watch this one. This show puts Saw to shame. I mean, Saw used blood and gore and murders and all that to make a franchise but Liar Game? None of that. This Drama is for the intellectuals, for those of you who love a wonderful mind game. This series keeps you on your toes, keep you asking "OMG!What's next?"

This show is about what happens when the system doesn't work. It's all about why a person shouldn't play games with human emotions. When an old, creepy voice on a phone tries to control the human habits...Habits such as hate, greed, betrayal, love--This show teaches you that you cannot simply look at a person and tell what they would do. Humans are unpredictable, dangerous and completely able to change.
