(Battle Royale) Nik

Our favourite Castle owner Takeshi Kitano (Takeshi's Castle / MXC) is the teacher of a Japanese school class. The Japanese society has become lackadaisical and therefore the government has decided to go in a new direction in class. Instead of teaching children math they send them on a trip to a deserted island. There they receive a bag of goodies... the credo of this 3 day trip, "Life is a game. So fight for survival and see if you're worth it."

The students are forced to kill each other off (or be killed themselves) over the 3 day "trip". At the end there will be only one survivor who is free to go, but until then there is much work to do.

This movie is quite entertaining, only the English subtitles are a bit lousy (Chick: *glurk* *spit* *glurk* Dude: No... you're so cool). But at the end it's a pretty decent movie worth watching especially when you had some problems with schoolkids.
