this is very dark and sad they are basically living in rags there are some real intense images that kids need to stay away from it is not very violent or to much swearing but it is a little harsh for tweens keep it for the older kids as crazy bandets in some scenes are going around in trucks shouting people as then they roast the people and eat them it was a little shocking at first but teens will get over it but in all it is a great story

This movie is filled with John Hillicoat's typically dark imagery. Overall, language sticks PG-13. 'Disturbing' images aren't bad, only one slightly startling birth, bloody arms, and death threats. It's a bit touching and sad.

This movie is one of the darkest, and most depressing films I have ever seen. I am a film fanatic, and seen hundreds-and-hundreds of movies, but this takes the cake for the bleakest of them all. Perhaps the worst part of this film is the fact that very little is shown, which leaves almost everything to the imagination - a scary thing. Though, when things are shown - it is horrifying. A list of the worst scenes: - A man and boy go down into a cellar only to find a bunch of naked, malnourished, sometimes limbless people, who are being kept for food. They attack the man and son, and th scene is horrifying. - A father points the gun at his sons head, and prepares to kill him. - You see a mother and her child being hunter by cannibals, only to have the camera cut away as you hear her dying cry. - The remains of a man who had been eaten are shown. A bloody head, and his organs are shown all over the ground. - A man is shot with a flare gun, and his body is shown burning. - A man tears an arrow out of his own leg, and staples the wound shut (Very graphic) Definitely not a family friendly movie, and will be VERY depressing for any age viewer. If you're looking for an alternative, go rent Children of Men. While it may be more graphic, it is no where near as depressing. It is also better than The Road, in my opinion.
