Must see film for teens
This movie is excellent it should be shown in schools to promote anti-racial messages and such. But, the violence and language is pretty bad byt they make the movie brutally honest in order to convey the message of needing to spread peace. Norton gives a career making performance in this film

American History X
This is a violent movie at any means, but the best movie concerning racial hatred and its consequences ever made. Language is bad with lots of f*cks and there is a rape scene and a sex scene (not fully visible) between the hero and a woman.
However, it's a fantastic movie that I reccomend.

Please Read
there is definatley a positive message despite the brutalness of the movie to discard hate and racism but many young teens dont get the point so i suggest anywhere from a mature 13 yr old to 14 or 15

Extremly Powerful Movie, That Everyone Must See
I personally think, everyone should see this movie. Their is a rape scene, which I found quite disturbing. Also, the violence can be very brutal, such as the infamous curb stomp scene, and their is a lot of strong language. But this movie has a very positive message, and the main character is a good role model, because he has turned his life around. I was 14 when I saw this, but it really depends on the child.

Extreme brutal violence, but also extremely good!
(This is a movie where every scene is important. SPOILERS may follow:)
First of all, the movie starts with a graphic sex scene.
Then frequent strong violence is present.
The violence is not too bloody (except one scene), but EXTREMELY BRUTAL AND INCREDIBLY REALISTIC. Not for the faint of heart.
-A man curb stomps a man, meaning he puts his head onto the curb and then stomps onto it. Very violent but seen from a distance, no blood.
-A man brutally rams a piece of meat into a woman's mouth in order to make her shut up.
-A man is graphically raped by a group of men.
-A man gets shot and a very huge amount of blood spurts onto the wall (the bloody scene i mentioned above). It is very realistic, there is much blood and it even seems more brutal for it is one of the protagonists.
-A very brutal and disturbing scene of paki bashing in a supermarket where a gang of nazis beat up several asian people, a woman is then "waterboarded", as they spill drinks all over her face making it hard to breathe for her.
The violence is strong and brutal, though not too bloody.
EXTREMELY violent and not suitable for tweens.
The movie deals with neo-nazis, and of course everything included. Swastikas are frequently shown.
However, the main character learns and at the end is no longer a nazi anymore, so there are positive messages.
Suitable for viewers 16 and up.
The movie is a total masterpiece and i don't understand it has only 2 stars on CSM.
