Thanks for the info. If anyone has not seen this movie I highly recommend it. It is rediculous they continue to comment on the violence. Nobody seemed to have a problem with the violence in Saving Private Ryan and that movie had vets running around the theatre screaming, yelling, and crying. (I am not trying to insult vets, I deeply respect them and I am thankful for their sacrifice) Will that get over the violence already!? Complain about something they should complain about: Kill Bill, vol. 2.

Remember that the Bible says that the wisdom of God is foolishness to man. People who are not His are blind to the truth until Jesus reveals it to them. It's a natural reaction of the world to something that is NOT of this world. I'm not surprised at all because the world wants to keep the death of Jesus nice and neat so theres no guilt or pain when they see it portrayed. Pray that their hearts will be broken for Him.
