It's pretty sick when you think about it, but it seems to be a growing trend in Hollywood lately.

Yikes! It makes you wonder who thought this was okay. Rated PG, but the viewer rating is 2.9. I'm going to warn my daughter not to take her children to see it. Thanks for the post!

You're welcome. Parents need to be made aware of this shit.

Update - the film has now been pulled from theatres worldwide after the public outcry..

Good. Hadn't heard of it but wow, whoever wrote and greenlighted that needed to be checked.

Is it a Polanski movie?

*rimshot*

"Great film. Shows kids the importance of going to their happy places no matter what's happening to them or how much they object to it."

-- R. Polanski

reply

Yeah, for sure.

How this ever passed the censors needs investigating and those that passed it need firing.

reply

Yes, and the writer and director for coming up with and making this crap.

reply

And the actors to blame for agreeing to the script.

Shows how much and how far people have sunk in Hollywood that a film like this ever made it to the theater i the first place.

reply

Hmm...as it involves DOGS's private parts and not KIDS's, maybe not PEDO but BESTIALITY.

reply

Well, there is that side too but it's the idea that the kid comes away with that will be remembered.

reply

Yes, very good point.

reply

Good! Thanks for the update. I'm still shaking my head about this.

Yeah, right. 🙄

reply

Their intended audience seem to be pedos...

reply

The writers must have been about 12 years old. I can visualize a couple of kids thinking this was funny, like jokes about belching and farting.

reply

Don't kid yourself. They knew exactly what they were writing.

Belch and fart jokes are not even in the same universe as telling a kid it's ok if someone touches them and they should just go to their 'happy place' when it happens instead of running screaming for the nearest adult to tell them that someone tried to do this to them.

I saw and loved it..btw is Natasha Lyonne's human cvharacter named Mattie, not MADDIE? I thought it was Maddie (the common variant.) Impressive, if silly use of voice dubbing..)
