I liked it quite a lot, so apparently I’m a pedophile.
How wonderful.

Some people really need to learn the difference between glorification and criticism. A sexualized image of an 11 year old dancing like a slut can mean multiple things, depending on the intent of the artist. Always be sure to track the character arc of the protagonist, look at what happens to him/her throughout the story, and in this case, you’ll understand why those images are part of the film. I’m not denying that it’ll attract some actual perverts, but that’s not a problem of the film. I’m sure that some people who watched _The Wolf of Wallstreet_ thought that Wall Street seems like a lot of fun (coke, hookers, money), but if you can put two and two together, you know Scorsese’s intent was the opposite.

7.5/10

@jordyep ... watching a movie about adults do coke, vs children being sexualized aren’t the same thing... if you think both are the same, you have issues

@jaysyle Both of those things are, first and foremost, meant to shock once you see them. Then, both films make an effort to critique what you’re seeing. That’s the comparison. <br /> <br /> You could make a point that it’s unethical to use kids, that’s fair, I don’t entirely disagree. I wouldn’t let my kids do it. However, in this case, if the child actors and their parents were fine with it, who am I to say that they can’t do it? The intent of the director makes it socially acceptable. Those scenes are needed, they need to be shocking in order to get the point across. They’re not in there for nasty reasons.
