Parents Say

age 13+

Based on 44 parent reviews

Parents say that while this film is visually stunning and features strong performances, particularly by Russell Crowe, it is quite violent and includes graphic images that may not be suitable for younger viewers. Many recommend it for mature teens due to its themes of honor and redemption, but caution against allowing children under 13 to watch due to disturbing content involving brutality, as well as references to incest.
