That scene *Spoilers*


Was NOWHERE NEAR as disturbing as some people on IMDb are saying. Read some of those of those 1/10 reviews, they’re absolutely ridiculous. Sure what happened to Tyler was horrible, but the scene really wasn’t that bad. 1/10 because of that scene? Give me a fucking break. Those people would probably have a heart attack if they saw something like A Serbian Film.

What affected me the most was how quickly it escalated. We've seen Monty rough him up before, but this was clearly different, even before he went into the stall it looked like he was gonna beat him to death.

I couldn’t stand that Monty guy, especially after what he did to Tyler. I was hoping he would get shot at the end, is that bad?

reply

He definitely needs something, because he is not very bright and neither is his future. He will eventually kill someone if he keeps going the way he has. That being said, he is abused by his father, and that's why he only knows violence.

I would have to agree, it was the fact that it escalated quickly when we had only ever seen Monty beat someone up in a lesser since. What also got me was, despite showing he could be violent, his character never struck me as someone sadistic or actually angry, more like a follower if anything. That could either be the way the actor played him or the lack of real attention to his character up until the point of the few prior scenes before the scene with Tyler by the writers. Either way, it was disturbing mostly in that it's very sporadic and out of character for Montgomery. That's really just my opinion on it. To be very honest, I don't understand why they decided to show the rape graphical but then the actor who plays Tyler didn't show any issues after, such as severe blood loss, severe internal bleeding, the inability to sit on his bottom, feeling weak and honestly, after the beating to his head, even being conscious. All in all, it was disturbing for what we were given.
