THE LESSON is another cheap British horror film with no voice of its own. It feels very much like the writer/director watched WOLF CREEK 2 and decided to make their own rip-off version of the story. The protagonists are a pair of despicable students who make the lives of everyone around them a misery, before one of their stressed-out teachers abducts them and subjects them to a lesson they'll never forget. Yes, it's another grubby torture porn movie lacking in vision and scope, with a small cast overacting for all their worth. The film delves into philosophy and themes of the education process, but offers little insight other than the most obvious conclusions. I found it a chore.
