I didn't take the wife because she thought it looked stupid, of course it was her idea to go see Cabin Fever (I've already talked about that one). I really don't think the violence would of bothered her at all, we left Cabin Fever and went to eat. The limb chopping off effects were intentionally done to look like bad kung fu movies, heck they went out of their way to make them look that way. It was something that never even registered to me as real. It's not like I have a high tolerance for that kind of stuff, I barely made it through my EMT class and I never got my license because I couldn't make it through working in the emergency room. I tend to pass out at the sight of blood. My brain never connected this violence with real violence unlike Saving Private Ryan which got to me (not that I didn't really like that movie too). The connection I made to this movie was with Commander USA's groovy movies from the "80's. It was supposed to look bad, they worked hard at making it look bad, that was the whole point, they weren't supposed to look like they knew what they were doing they were supposed to look like they were in a old Kung Fu movie, they used a old Godzilla set in the movie for pete's sake.
Only if you want to be with a shrinking violet. Me, I prefer my women asskicking and strong.
