Kitty Posted June 9, 2008 Share Posted June 9, 2008 [quote]MMPA: Rated PG-13 for crude and sexual content throughout, language and nudity.[/quote] Did you look up the reason for rating before seeing it? The rating seems to warn you ahead of time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fixxxer Posted June 9, 2008 Share Posted June 9, 2008 Well, i enjoyed watching it. I thought it kinda dragged on and could have been a shorter movie. I was somewhat surprised it was only pg13. This really isnt anything new to me though from Adam Sandler. If you have listened to any of his albums you get what i mean.

kujo Posted June 9, 2008 Share Posted June 9, 2008 I didn't find it as "pornographic" as others on here have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lilac_angel Posted June 9, 2008 Share Posted June 9, 2008 I can't believe how redefined the rating "PG-13" has become over time. I've never seen the movie and don't plan to, but I've seen a few PG-13 movies that have been much more offensive than R movies... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A movie with Jim Carrey doesn't need to stoop to bottom-of-the-barrel degrading humor to be hilarious to a great amount of people. I don't remember if I ever saw the whole thing. I may have watched it when subscribed to Clean Films. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kujo Posted June 9, 2008 Share Posted June 9, 2008 Perhaps it's my background, but I don't find much offensive. I just don't care. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lilac_angel Posted June 9, 2008 Share Posted June 9, 2008 I think it's my gender that makes me offended at certain types of women-degrading, objectifying humor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It all contributes to the same basic stereotypes that perpetuate cycles of degradation and moral deterioration all across the board. I haven't seen any American sitcoms lately that ever even made me consider laughing...they just weren't funny, period. =] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
