YES, YES, YES, I would DEFINITELY recommend this movie to ANYONE young or old. There was ABSOLUTELY NOTHING objectionable about this movie. As for the concern about exposing young children to this movie, there should be none....nature IS very cruel whether on earth, in the sea or LIFE for that matter. I'm sorry some people feel this way; maybe they should lock up their young children in a big glass case and never let them out and coddle them all their life. I feel more pity for these children of overprotective parents like these and quite frankly I am more scared of how these children are being raised then I could EVER be scared of what they could be ''exposed'' to from a beautiful movie such as ''Oceans'' For these children's sake, I SERIOUSLY hope these parents seek professional help..............
