Fantastic movie. However, I do not think that it is age appropriatte for anyone under 13.

the book is freaking awesomer than the movie though rofl

Say what you will about this film's obvious tampering of history, but you can't deny that this period piece keeps your eyes glued to the screen the whole time. The costumes are beautiful, the score is perfect, the acting is somewhat believeable, and the script isn't too hokey compared to other costume dramas. Scarlett Johannson is beautiful as always, and Natalie Portman along with Jim Sturgess give great performances. The only problem with this movie is the casting choice of Eric Bana, who has as much emotional range as a flaming pile of dog poop. Parents, keep in mind that this is a mature drama; the film is all about backstabbing and sex, even though nothing explicit is shown. However, there is an implied rape scene, and two people are beheaded. One is only implied, while in the other, you see from high up, so there's nothing TOO graphic. Though, I doubt your kids will want to see this anyway. But if you're interesting, give this flick a try; you might end up loving it!

This movie was good but tords the middle of the film it got rather confusing and boring. Younger kids would not understand what is going on throughout the entire movie. There is some intence violance but isn't that bad. I say only kids 14+ will really only like it because it is really More for adults rather then kids.
