from one parent to another

Rating: 3/10 (6 March 2011)

while normally i check out the movie before i take my kids to go see it, this time unfortunately i did not. we were all too excited to go see it. my children did not enjoy all the guns firing everywhere while on those bats. the snake scared my daughter. not to mention the "go to hell" comment. my children lost interest in the movie as well just over half way through. the movie was just a little to long i thought too. the theater that we were in a lot of the kids kept talking, clearly lack of interest during the movie,barely any laughs from any one, just a lot of shaking heads. i along with some other parents even gasped at the naked top half of a barbie doll! the one other thing that had me boiling and i hope my children didn't notice, but in the movie during rangos fitting he hands the little towns girl his gun as he signs an autograph for her. while she is holding the cocked and loaded gun, she is pointing it at her eye, in her mouth and at her mother. (all curiously of course) that was it for me.
so, if you have small children under the age of 12 i would suggest passing on this movie.
it really is a shame they would draw kids in, getting them excited over the previews knowing full well every child would want to see it and yet it is clearly not meant for children to see, especially the younger ones, that just wanted to see a lizard as a cowboy.
