Having embraced 'A Clockwork Orange' when first released, I found this an interesting reworking of the 'misunderstood teenager by society-in-general and politicos-in-particular' theme. The background music was the dead give-away, no pun intended. A historical/period piece, 'Poisoner's Handbook' put 'Clockwork' into perspective, while remaining an entertaining bit of film. All 'round better sense of humour then it's predecessor. Casting was a delight.
