This was really bugging me.

So my birthday was the 18th. I just turned 17 so that means I get to see all the rated R movies I want (yesss). Anyways

I go to see the movie 'Deathrace" If you haven't seen it, then the movie is about prisoners racing at a prison in cars. The cars have guns on them and you have to kill the other racers, or out-race them.

Movie is filled with vile language, blood, shooting, sexual things, horrible torture-type things(girl gets her insides pulled out) overall - my type of movie :]

A family comes in to see this movie.

I mean a FAMILY

The lady brings in around 6 kids.
four of them are under the age of 6, one is around 14, and the other one... a baby. A freaking baby being subjected to mindless violence. What the heck is this lady thinking. The child is screaming throughout the movie with the mother telling it to shut up and be quiet, roughly shaking the kid. She leaves about 4 times to make it calm down, presumably beating the kid is what I think.

That really pisses me off.

What kind of mother does that? It just boggles my mind.

And people say media ruins the youth. Well it does, but it's not the kids fault. It's the dumb broads fault who takes the kid into the theater.

I'm sorry if you think this is insignificant, but I just had to get this off of my chest.

Gah.

I assume you didn't like the movie, and i agree, a movie like that has a rating for a reason.......:)

Ohhh no. I really liked it. One of my favorite actors in it.

And I honestly think that people should HAVE to be over the age of 13 to even BE in a movie with their parents.

People are stupid. Call the police and tell them that.

Once saw a fight break out while seeing the movie "Friday" after someone accidentally kicked an infant in the head. who brings an infant to the dollar theater to see a movie about getting high?

meh . . . The way shows and movies are rated nowadays is all messed up..

Too many rules, too little common sense. You can see a show on television where there's swearing, and many sexual and violent references, but because they're visually within "acceptable standards", it's rated PG. Problem is, sometimes the storyline is very violent or has a lot sexual reference in it, that one would think that it would be rathed R, but it isn't.

On the other hand, a movie that has 2 bad references, (saying the "f" word for example) gets an automatic "r" rating.

As a mother of 3 - 21 year old, 7 year old and 3 year old. I think that movies that are appropriate for children under 13 children should be allowed to go to the theater and see. It is the appropriate place to teach your children how to behave in a movie theater. That being said. Movies with a R rating teenagers between 13 and 17 should be accompanied by a "consenting" adult, not just someone old enough and children under 13 should not be allowed to attend at all. Not only for the movie content, but in consideration of the other patrons who paid good money to see the movie, not a younger teenager giggling and talking or someone else's children acting up.

Just my opinion.

i'm with you on this one.

fix the rating system before you try to fix the 'bad parents'.

That film is an 18 over here so you have to be 18 to go watch it we also have 15's, 12's, pg's=parental guidance and u's=universal suitable for all, which makes a lot more sense to me anyway.
