Should have been rated "X"

Rating: 2/10 (28 December 2011)

I don't normally review movies, but I just returned from this one and wanted to warn those who care that this movie is VERY SEXUALLY EXPLICIT. So much so that I would caution all before paying to see it. In one scene, the a main character gives a hand job, then a blow job to another character. In another, this same main character is raped and sodomized in handcuffs against her will. Later this same character returns to her perpetrator and sodomizes him in revenge...all in extreme graphic detail. On top of this, there are several other consensual sex scenes between this character and others in the movie.
Defenders will attempt to argue that this was necessary to the subject line of the movie, but the amount of graphic content went far beyond what was necessary to properly convey the subject matter. Leaving the movie, I felt like I needed to take a bath and I'm a married man in my mid 40s with children. I did not believe that the level and amount of graphic sexual content added to the movie. If you could take away these several scenes, I'd rate the movie higher, but it was a complex and long "who done it" involving sexual misbehavior in a family that should have received an "X" rating. Don't take your teens to this one.
