A cat gets gratuitously shot in this film, I don't see anything funny about that. I wish filmmakers would stop using animals for their stupid jokes.
I thought the film was pretty bad and uninteresting before hand, but that scene put it over the edge.
I wish these films came with a big warning sign. We hate cats!! So I could stay away from them.
Who the hell are cat lovers anyway!? Except the crazy cat ladies with 50 cats. Useless animals only waiting for you to feed them and care nothing more about you.
shareReally? First of all it was fake. Second: What about the birds and people that got shot/beaten up etc.? You need therapy.
I don't love her.. She kicked me in the face!!
THANK YOU! The shooting of the crows, intelligent animals indeed, was a little shocking to me, but can't you bickering children tell the cat is not actually shot? The tags saying animal killed, etc. in this instance only mean there was a portrayed killing. Look once more at the freshly "shot" cat in his owner's arms and you can see it's a fake. Geesh! If you can't play nice with your fellow film enthusiasts you shouldn't post on what should be an adult, enjoyable discussion of opinions and experiences. Unclench your butt and grow up.
share*rolls eyes*
I suppose the crows could have been skinned alive for all you care?
Sure, who gives a damn about birds and people, killing them is fine.
Just don't touch cats !?
are you mental?
I am not particularly a cat or dog person, but I think the cat scene (along with the other violent scenes) serve a point in this movie. I purposely avoid movies with violence, unless it is there for some historical reason (ie. movies about slavery or the Holocaust, for example). In Adam's Apples, however, the whole message of the movie is about our perceptions versus reality and how to reconcile that in the face of the obvious.
I mean, one could feasibly argue that it's also ageist because an older character was not allowed to leave service to go to the bathroom. For that matter, there is a reason to boycott any production for almost anything we dislike instead of using those moment of righteous indignation to examine our own belief systems.
For future reference, there are usually plot keywords listed for movies on IMDB. "Killing a cat" is listed among those for this one.

Before they shot the cat, they tortured it for hours to get the best performance out of it.
I need about three fiddy.
I found incredible, that someone complains about cat being shot in the movie, while several people being shot in the same movie didn't seem to bother the poster at all. That's just sick.
