A 13 year old? I feel sorry for that kid. That's just negligent to show a 13 year old those movies.[/quote]

You think there is too much talking and not enough action?  True to a degree, but there is some good action scenes between all the dialog.  And no nudity although some bad language.[/quote]

Is this a joke? Those movies are brutal. Why would you want a 13 year old to have those ideas in their heads? I feel sorry for them.[/quote]

I'm not sure you watched some of these closely to understand the story line and how these teach us something about ourselves and how to overcome adversity.

Inglorious Basterds shows how the oppressed can rise up and beat the evil Nazi Germans in WW2 with their cunning and creativity.  And what great acting by Christopher Waltz which got him an Oscar.
Kill Bill is an uplifting story about a woman scorned who is the best (absolute best) at her profession and seeks to right the wrongs she suffered at the hands of those whom she thought were her friends.  
In Resevoir Dogs the police who are down trodden are eventually victorious over the criminals once again showing crime does not pay.

I had to go to the bathroom during Kill Bill where I literally passed out. I was 30 years old. I couldn't go back inside and I was troubled for weeks by what I had seen (when she was in the hospital). So no, I'm a new P but I would NEVER have my kids watch that or any other Tarantino movie (I love other ones but I'm not showing them to my kids). The violence in Once Upon..is absolutely gruesome and would completely freak them out. Everyone is different and has different levels of tolerance and sensitivity to violence. The ratings are guidelines. They don't always get it right but they are designed to help people know what to expect in terms of shock levels.[/quote]

I totally agree. People who watch these movies like they're totally normal are numb inside. [/quote]
