Never been so infuriated by a film + it's director
I have never felt so much rage at a directors choice to include extreme violence before. I consider myself a open minded viewer, but this film might as well have been produced by the Taliban with it's ultra misogyny. Seriously, the next fulm Winterbottom will make will be about the Stoning of Sonrorya but the stoners will be portrayed as flawed but heroic.
The first clip showing violence directed against J.Alba actually erotisizes the violence and portrays it as something that is desireable to pursue, with a shot of Alba's round bum red and bleeding by a belt whipping. Censorship would be the most appropriate action to be taken.
What is wrong w/ in society when a Euro-art/porn film is rated NC-17 because of lovemaking but dangerous, vicous, deadly sexual violence is given the green light?At one point I liked a few things Winterbottom had done- what a surprise! Is this some kind of test by Winterbottom or are we executed to take this seriously.
As other reviewers have said, would homosexual violence directed toward a male be tolerated?
Avoid at all costs!!!
