I took my on- the- mature- side 14 year old to see it after grilling family members about why it got the rating it did. I warned him to close his eyes during one scene as it might be disturbing and, in fact, I looked away for a few seconds. But he loved it and so did I and I thought it was completely fine for him. I think they need to completely revamp the rating system – I’ve seen PG13 movies that I thought were completely unacceptable for kids even over 13 and R movies that I think have a great deal of redeeming value and little to justify the rating.
