I read a very short article about this movie. Have anyone seen it? Could you explain why it was decided that only adults may see this movie?

Ack; I personally hated this and all of Micheal Moore's movies as an American. He has some good points, but most of the stuff he says and the way he does it is just crap. Rolling Eyes Well, apparantlly it is "only for adults to see" because the MPAA deems that it is: "[Rated] R for some violent and disturbing images, and for language. " However it is American political satire; the movie may not make much sense to those not living in America, or does not keep up with American politics.

DEAR: lioness
FIRST OF ALL I WANT TO THANK YOU FOR THIS TOPIC ... IM ARABIC PERSON AND I CAN'T SPEAKE ENGLISH VERY WELL BUT IM GANNA TRY TO SHOW YOU MY VIEW POINT ....
I THINK THIS MOVIE SHOWS DISADVATAGES OF USA POLICY .. ESPACIALLY THE USA PRESENT .... THAT'S WHY THIS MOVIE IS ALLOWED FOR ADULT PEOPLE ... IF CHILDREN OR TENEEGERS SEE THIS MOVIE IT MAYBE AFFICT IN THERE MIND AND THERE FEELINGS WITH THERE GOVERNMANT AND WITH THERE PRESENT .....I DIDN'T SEE THE MOVIE BUT I KNOW MUST OF DETAILS ON IT ....
THE DIRECTOR IS THE BEST ONE ...

SORRY FOR MY BAD LANGUAGE Crying or Very sad ...BUT I WILL TRY TO IMPROVE IT HERE ...IN DAVE'S ESL CAFE Very Happy

Hi, I saw this Docu while I was this summer in Germany, so I can't say I've understood every single word... but what impressionate me the most was the clear vision I got: the real protagonist was IGNORANCE... in both country! You could say there's no IGNORANCE in the USA... indeed a lot of people have no idea of what is going on in the WORLD, so you can tell them their neighbour is a terrorist and they will belive you! You can tell to people in arabian country that if you kill non-muslim you'll go to Paradies and they will believe you! IGNORANCE and not thinking with one's own head produce what we are living today! Crying or Very sad That's the opinion I got... we have multimedia instruments but we don't know to use them properly... The Massmedia are influencing people's mind with stereotypes and making them strangers for their own family members!
Sorry for taking it so long! Smile
