The wound on her arm was swelling almost instantly after the fact. That signifies there was some impact, knife wounds don't swell like that.

She very well could have been shot, this stuff to them is regular. This is what happens every day in these countries. if it happened here in the US it would be spectacular, it would be ALL OVER THE PRESS!

Dead tofu, remember saving private Ryan? The sniper scene, you don't go any where or do anything except take cover. If you run, you become a target, if it indeed was a sniper then taking cover would be a good thing to do.

I would suspect that with the volume of fire it was a sniper, probably at long range judging by the wound.

^Absolutely. One of the most grittiest, accurate depictions of World War II. Even surpassed Saving Private Ryan and Band of Brothers imho.

Thanks

"Anybody know what the "Secret Pants Presents" music in the beginning is from?"

Saving Private Ryan

I know I've heard that music before. I'm 90% sure I heard it in a Steven Spielberg movie. I think either Saving Private Ryan (in the movie or DVD "extras" featurette) or Ron Howard's Apollo 13. Come to think of it, I'm pretty sure now it's in a Saving Private Ryan DVD "extras" featurette.

I disagree with Dag.

I don't think people should go into the theater thinking they are going to see a comic book movie. It's more crime noir than anything else, not the common and imaginary "good vs. bad" comic book fantasy. I think its entirety spoke to something greater: fear, control, uncertainty, sacrifice.

Yes, Rachel Dawes part in the story line is very limited, but it's because she serves as a foil for the men, because in the end, the movie is about the relationships between these men, their struggle uphold good despite deep self-sacrifice, while constantly being tempted by the ecstasy of chaos offered by the joker.

It was violent, but I believe it was tactful. There was barely any blood on the screen. No beads of blood splattering on the camera lens.
And if we are going to judge any movies by violence then Gladiator, Saving Private Ryan, and Kill Bill would be terrible films in comparison.

Because concerning the subconscious, it is reality-debasing violence. Cutting without blood, physical damage without pain, violence consistent enough to be considered a main plot gimmick; All done in the guise of charming and playful action in a media form that is primarily considered for kids(and trusted by kids.) Like child-targeted commercials and all subliminal media, it's not that I have a problem with the content but rather the way it is relayed. Questioning the subconscious impact of media is a skill that children have not yet developed.

Curious to hear why in your book Tom and Jerry is R. I can understand why Saving Private Ryan is PG-13 though...

Coming from a gamer :
I would rather see the kid playing counterstrike instead of team fortress 2.
I would rather see the kid playing a game with realistic violence with realistic consequences(screams, blood, death) than playing a cartoonish parody of violence which whitewashes nearly all consequences of the act.
I would rather see the kid watching Saving Private Ryan(rating PG-13 in my book) instead of Tom and Jerry(rating R in my book.)

I think most childhood violence happens due to the 'acceptable'(aka unreal) violence in our daily media consumption. It subconsciously debases all reality of the act. I ask you, are parents who slaughter an animal on the family farm worse human beings because the child now has an understanding of death? I hope you realize 'no.'

I know most parents want to hold onto their child's innocence as long as they can, but that's their style of parenting. It takes all kinds, right?

often point to this flick, along with Saving Private Ryan, American History X, and Full Metal Jacket as some of the most (potentially) really disturbing movies, that you should see anyway, because it's so not gratuitous, and really needs to be that ugly to do a serious matter justice.

I downvoted because I love that song too much to see it used in accordance with a serious movie.

But I do laugh at anybody who thinks of Saving Private Ryan as a historical movie, and thus above any use of mockery. I agree with twiddles that the execution was weak.
