Just plain wrong

Rating: Null/10 (7 April 2005)

This is not really a review, as I walked out of this dreadful film before the first of the stories had ended.
I can't remember ever seeing the kind of appalling violence that this film contained.
While it will be excused by many as "comic book" violence, it is still violence -- and the kind of indoctrination in violence which has turned our country into one of the most violence prone nations on earth.
Is it any wonder that America could invade Iraq, kill tens of thousands of people, then find out that the weapons of mass destruction we used as an excuse for the invasion never existed in the first place. Yet that seems to bother many Americans not in the least.
No, this movie didn't cause that, but I am convinced that films like this one contribute to the atmosphere of violence which now hovers over America on a permanent basis.
This film is part of a sickness that grips our world --the sickness which makes violence our foremost form of entertainment.
