It really wasn't that disgusting! (spoilers)
I read the novel, loved it, and decided that I'd like to see the film. I was very nearly put off by all the outraged complaints on this messageboard, saying that it was "sick" and very difficult to watch.
Perhaps I'm being insensitive, but I really didn't think it was that bad. The eel scene isn't very pleasant to watch, I know, and admittedly I had to turn away when Matzerath was choking on the badge, but otherwise I thought it was all right, and nowhere near as bad as some people on here said it was.
Does anyone else agree? And those of you who think it's "unwatchable" - what are your main complaints?
P.S - I'm fifteen, and if I could cope with this I don't see why those of you who are older than me couldn't! :P
