To answer the above review, it got a PG 13 because there was very little actual violence in the movie and even the virtual violence was pretty tame. This is significantly less gruesome than most action-adventure movies and *way* less gory than most of the video games it emulated. There were depictions of violent death but for the most part the camera just flashed to and away from it, preventing viewers from seeing anything but a bunch of red. When my friends and I saw it, the theater was packed with kids in the 10-15 range and they spent most of the movie screaming and laughing and generally seeming to have fun. The premise is clever and it's fairly well executed. With things like Hostel and Saw II and The Hills Have Eyes out on the market, this is pretty much the only option for kids who want to see a horror flick. Luckily for them, it's not half bad.

This movie was pretty interesting. It was a different pg-13 horror flick and it gave you some good scares and jumping out of your seat moments. In my opinion this might have been a little bit to much for a pg-13 film(with the way the characters were killed off,)but it kept you awake and wondering what would happen next. I really liked the backround(settings)of where the movie took place.(the creepy house,the torture chamber,and the scary graveyard.)

It's an average horror movie. The language is much too bad for children to watch it, however. As for scary images, it's simply not that scary. I jumped maybe once the entire time.

I read everything on the website about this movie. I haven't even seen it but I want to know how it could possibly have received a PG-13 rating??!!

I have the PG-13 version on DVD because I hadn't seen it in the movies and i bought it the first day it came out, so i didnt know if the directors cut had the orginal version so i just got the Pg-13 one and now i regret it. I really want the unrated because the pg-13 version is pretty tame. The only violence and gore for it is mostly in the game and the death scenes they flash away

its fine for kids, its just REALLY lame... I've seen half a million other horror movies better than this- if you want REAL action, watch Plague Town, or Human Centipede!

i saw alot of horror when i was 10 and this was one of the ones i loved it dos have alot of Violence byt it is a good movie id say it isint to good for younger kids but for older kids id say watch it

I loved this movie! I am a big horror fan myself, and have seen almost every recent one, but this is best by far! If you like super-thrilling movies with that horror-gory touch (only a bit!), then SEE THIS MOVIE NOW!
