George Segal is the mastermind of all black market operations in a Japanese prison camp. He is called "King Rat" because of his breeding of rodents to serve as food for his emaciated fellow prisoners. British officer James Fox helps Segal expand his operation to include trading with the Japanese officers. Though on surface level a thoroughly selfish sort, Segal saves the ailing Fox's life by wangling precious antibiotics from the guards. (forgalmazó hivatalos szövege)

How would you survive in a Singapore prison at the end of World War II? Watch this film. It isn't about action, it's not about how all the soldiers were heroes, but it's about what it means to survive in conditions of uncertainty, what it's like to try to keep your sanity and push through until there's maybe a chance of liberation. Psychologically, it's good.

The main strength of "Na Králi kryse" lies in its original source, the film adaptation couldn't avoid certain simplifications and I also had a problem with the casting. Nevertheless, the story of the rise of an insignificant soldier who demonstrated extraordinary adaptability and entrepreneurial skills under the oppressive conditions of a prisoner of war camp, only to later realize that social status cannot be overcome in everyday life and class differences function reliably, is itself so strong that it deserves five stars. Although I liked the Czech stage version more on the television screen. Overall impression: 90%.
