Dove Review

Kirk Douglas personally fought for the MPAA Ratings Board to give this film a PG-13 after it had initially been rated R. But it still contains three profanities and the dialogue is peppered with many obscenities; there aresexual conversations and situations as the old man takes his son and grandson to a brothel; the teenager shows disrespect for his father; the teen suggests you are a total loser if you haven’t used drugs; there’s gambling, teen smoking, and yet again, a dysfunctional family is portrayed. Great cast, but after reading the content, is this something you want to expose yourself to in the name of entertainment?
