Movie Review. Kick-Ass.
Thoughts on an R rating for a movie about violence and force perpetrated and suffered by children.
In real life children can suffer all the same horrors as adults and too often do. I really do think we should put our effort in protecting children from real life violence rather than fictional violence.
And maybe fictional violence can help children understand the world around them better.
I don't like violence, doesn't mean it's good to pretend it doesn't exist.
I enjoy violent movies and video games as long as the context is there. Gore and senseless violence for the sake of it doesn't work for me.
Kids know the difference thankfully and are cognisant of real vs fake
In real life, I can't stand seeing people get hurt or hurting others.
