    what a mistake

    This film is a waste of disc! teenage garbage full of stereotypical rich kids and trashy girls in bikini's that have absolutely no reason to be in the scenes. The lead bimbo is as shallow as a puddle and has as much charisma. The annoying camera happy half rate sidekick is not at all likeable and a lot stupid. The fact that this guy is beaten up and the whole purpose of the 'training' is to get revenge by beating the other guy up in turn - what is the point to this it leaves the whole ending a bit hollow and without substance. dont bother adding to your rental list!!!
