Movies need to stop giving movies r ratings for saying shit or fuck. The violence isn't even that graphic. Punisher War Zone was r rated and had blood and violence. A Harley movie should have rob zombie movie violence and gore
shareR Ratings are a new marketing tool. They're supposed to convince you that it's "edgy" and it's willing to "break the rules" but in the end it's the same timid prudish people doing a Safe R. No nudity, no genuine violence, just a few F bombs and presto, you can market it as though it's risky. It's cheap and manipulative. Don't give these people your money.
shareI'd also include raunchy, nude sex scenes. The R-rating was always going to be a box office risk - so they should have just gone all the way with it.
shareAs soon as you're cutting off faces with a straight razor, you've basically stumbled into R territory.
shareThe camera cut as Zasaz was killing people. It wasn't like something from devils rejects or house of 1000 corpeses. Even Zasaz getting shot point blank range wasn't brutal nor was Sionis blowing up( that looked cartoony)
