I came to see this movie because everyone told me I HAD to; that this is the one that will change the game for future filmmakers. I came away agreeing 100 percent with them, but I sure wish someone had warned me about all of the violence. This is a shoot-em-up movie of the first order. The battle scene at the end goes on forever. I'm definitely glad I went, even if violent movies are so not my thing, but it's nice to know beforehand what I'm getting into. I definitely would not bring elementary age children to see this, although there were plenty (and younger) in the theater. I hope their hearing wasn't damaged, among other things.
