(135,425 posts)Film is an art form, anyway--there are "good" movies and "bad" movies, but unless the producers/directors are craven opportunists with a principal goal of raking in massive cash or currying influence with authority figures (porn and propaganda) there's not much to say about "morality," really. It's a film about a brazen teenager, made in Australia with one very recognizable Australian performer (Rachel Griffiths) -- that's pretty much all I know at this point.
Most people I know either go to the movie or don't--based on factors including reviews, one's favorite actors, a subject matter of interest, etc. They don't have to "approve of" the story's essential features -- or be a cheerleader for them, either--to enjoy the show.
I usually wait until they leave the theaters and I can get them at Redbox or Netflix or one of the other cheap-o opportunities. I don't need to be the first in line to see the latest pic. I will make an exception for drive-in theaters--I like that sort of experience--night air, bring your own dinner, discuss the film with your companions without having to worry about bothering others, etc.
