i loved the film by the way. Rodriguez is a good director for people like me.
But children shouldn't be able to see it because of the certificate it's been given. (I know, children will see it anyway and I don't want to start into a debate on age ratings as censorship.)

I'd say the film is a fair mental challenge both because of the subject matter and the style in which it's presented. On that basis I'd say it has the potential to really mess with young minds. I see this as an example of how ratings can be a tool to protect the young. I know that age isn't necessarily the same as maturity (and hence ability to cope with this sort of film) but I know I wouldn't be happy with my niece or nephew seeing it quite yet.

Cold Topic

A thread most controversial, that’s what I want to start
Full of impassioned arguments, of posting from the heart
And for this stimulation all will be thankful to me
On come on everybody it won’t work if you agree
