    its availible on DVD, and its a terrible mess of a movie, the director of BR1 died so he did not have anything to do with the sequel, as a result number 2 is awful, which is a pity

    Silly, silly film. If you enjoyed the first one, don't bother going to see this, it is a confused mess and a waste of time. There are way too many problems with this film to list, but the most glaring is the enormous cast of characters who, by the end of the film, you don't really care if they live or die....they're really that wooden.

    I laughed when the teacher chucked the rugby ball at the ground at the start and shouted "Merry Chlistmas!!!", but it was very much downhill from there.

    the teacher is fugging hilarious. 2 scenes - the rugby happy christmas one and that bit where he's just sitting there with a crazy crazy head on him munching fistfulls of pills - classic.

    Nowhere near as good as the first.

    Bit of a daft idea. (loved the 1st though)
