my mom and i luv to go to the movies together... our favorite movies right now are probably frozen and "we bought a zoo"... i think it would be fun to go to this one cause we really like shia leboeuf from even stevens. thoughts? should we go?
You seem little bit like a naive if your question is to be taken seriously, but this ain't something you watch with your family, and the same applies with LvT's work in general...The name tells a lot and also the MPAA rating gives you a clue ... but in any case I got two words for you: Hell, No !!! Go and see it alone...
I wouldn't say that about all of Lars von Trier's works. I've watched with my mom "Dancer in the Dark" and she cried, but because she really felt the film, she liked a lot, but it is so sad that she cried. None of us regretted it. I LOVE that film. We are looking forward to watch together "Dogville" and "Melancholia".
This thread seems like trolling, but I wanted to know serious answers, because I don't know if I would watch it myself. I don't have any trouble with explicit sexual scenes if the script, acting and direction is good, and the scenes are needed. But I don't want to see pornography (real sex), so I guess I'll pass.
I'll never make the same mistake I did with "Irreversible". I didn't knew too much about the film, and back then I invited my mom to watch it in the theatres. She was so uncomfortable in the rape scene, damn, I was very uncomfortable! I felt guilty for months. She wanted to leave the theatre, but she stayed because of me. Now I bring her to many films like "Life of Pi", "Gravity" and "Maleficent" hahaha.
Please excuse my terrible redaction, english is not my native language.
I wrote LVT's work in general, not all of his films... Most of his movies include some scenes that I would be uncomfortable watching with one of my parents. I wasn't trying to troll or anything, just expressed my opinion on the matter !
I think it depends.I've seen this movie and I could see it with my dad but maybe that's just me. I wouldn't really care. Depends on how skittish you and your mom are
