Watchmen

So, last night I went to go see a movie with one of my friends/co-workers and saw Watchmen. 
I didn't know what it was really about besides the fact that it was a comic book. Never read it...... (remember, I don't read.)

Anyways, she asked me to go with her so I thought "sure I'll go I've been working long and hard today I'll treat myself to a movie" So I watched the preview on my movies widget thing on my laptop and it still didn't really tell me what it was about but go anyway.

We get in the movie theatre and I see this kid sitting with his parents waiting to watch this movie and I recalled the rating being R and think to myself "are you kidding me? you're bringing your 5 or 6 year old to see an R rated movie?? hmmm.... maybe they didn't know what it was rated and thought that it was a good old comic book movie for kids too"

well, it wasn't.

This movie was NOT what I was expecting. I was shocked with how much violence was in this thing yet even more shocked with the nudity and sex scenes in it! I'm telling you this movie seriously should have been rated X. And the whole time I was thinking about this poor kid having to sit in there watching it. I was waiting on the parents to leave dragging their kid out of there but they never budged. Seriously?? I can't get over how awful that is for a child that age to see something like that. It makes me sick to my stomach.

  1. Wow, that's awful that parents would sit through a movie like that with a kid that age! I heard it was awful and thankfully didn't pay to go see it; sorry you didn't get that same warning. I hadn't heard about the sex scenes - only the nudity. Feel sorry for that kid too.
