I'm not exactly sure they had those type of swear words back in the 1700's, but the movie was entertaining, always leaving you with a cliffhanger. I guaruntee you kids won't want to see this movie unless they've got a Best Picture quest like movie. The opera scenes are extended, Mozart swears alot (and gets drunk frequently) and flirts like mad. Though the message may be muddled, "Amadeus" is an interestingly offbeat amusing film.

AMADEUS is a wonderfully written movie full of intrigue, plot twists, and classical music. (What more could one want?) This movie is told in first person...from the viewpoint of Antonio Salieri, the badguy, also Mozart's rival. Rather, Mozart was Salieri's rival. There are some weak spots, however. There is social drinking, hypocrisy by Salieri at many points, Mozart's running around with various women, and his outright disrespect for Salieri and others. For example, Salieri is in love with an up and coming soprano. It is mentioned in front of the company, which includes Mozart, Salieri, and Salieri's crush, if you will. It is mentioned that Mozart is engaged to another girl. Salieri's crush hits Mozart over the head with her fan, and storms off. Salieri concludes that he had been messing with her, and henceforth begins his obsession with killing Mozart. But Mozart's talent was not to be denied, and he quickly gained favor with the Emperor, which threatens Salieri's high ranking job as the Court Composer. This further motivates him to kill Mozart. He comes up with a plan to steal a funeral mass written by Mozart and play it at his funeral as his own [Salieri's own work]. Mozart dies, and the funeral mass is unfinished. Salieri claims guilt, but his obsession leaves the question of whether he pleased with his devilish deed.

There is more than just "a naked backside". There is a scene when Mozart's wife goes to sleep with Salieri so he will let Mozart teach lessons to someone. It shows her stripping and makes no effort to hide her completely bare torso. I didn't finish the movie, so I don't know what else there is, but it is certainly worse than "Sex: Mozart enjoys romps with his wife. A naked backside."

Amadeus is a very good movie. I love it and watch it all time. The directors cut though, is very innapropriate for younger people, a lady takes off her top and reveals her breasts. But the normal theatrical version is good for ages 8 and up. I reccomend it to anybody, Mozart or classical music lovers, or rap and punk lovers. Anyone would like it.

RATED R is not for KIDS, rated PG and PG-13 is the worse

what the f**k? why rated r not for 10 year olds and for 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, and/or 16 year olds? this should be 17+!
