"Rated R for extreme impaling"

[Anonymous]

Are you going to let your tween see Logan? Mine are begging to but it looks so dark and violent. Yet it's received mostly good reviews artistically.

I'm somewhat annoyed a comic book movie is rated R. Aren't the under18s 80% of the market?

You're missing the original X-Men consumers who are now mid 30's. Yes, I'd let my tween see Logan.

It's fantasy, not real impalings.

Really, it's not a documentary?

No. My kids won't see it.

Yes, I would allow DD14 to see it is she wants to.

This extra violence, and the hype about it, is the point. Discussion about it is a strategy to increase sales.

I'm not saying don't discuss, I'm just saying it's what the 22-14+ kids want - something they're not 'supposed' to see.

22 was supposed to be 12. Ha! Autocorrect, you kill me.

I have no issues with nudity, sex and language. But I really despise violence on screen. My own pet peeve, so I wouldn't allow it.

Deadpool was rated R and completely inappropriate for kids yet half of my then 2nd grader's class saw it when it was in the theaters. Parents are lame.

I let my 14 y/o see Deadpool, but I wouldn't have allowed it when she was 12.

[Anonymous]

Nope.

DS who is almost 12 has never seen a R movie but he wants to see this one and I am inclined to let him. I have no issue with nudity or language, it's the violence I don't like. But he is a mature kid and could handle it fine.

I'm not letting my DS (12) see it yet. My DH and I went to go see it (excellent movie!) and while it does have graphic violence what concerns me more is that the story is a very mature (about aging and death) and not really a "superhero movie". I'm fine with all of the other Marvel movies but this one is very different in tone and subject matter.

OMG! My 2nd grader told me some kids had watched it and I thought he might have been making that up. That and the last Fast and Furoois.

2nd grade?? What are parents thinking?
