Response to Mario Panayi, Bad- Cinema- Kids

http://triplebbeingbadblog.blogspot.com/2007/04/bad-cinema-kids.html

Mario, you have good reason to despise this film. Kids is an accurate portrayal but of a small minority of kids. The kids in this movie have no guidance and have lost or never gained a code of ethics. I don`t want to ever see the film Kids again; I hate it and it boring when all of the adolescents in the film are sitting down and talking about sex. This is perhaps the darkest portrait of youth culture ever to be captured on film.

Telly and Casper are amoral and are so self absorbed with themselves from the beginning to the end of the film. Telly and Casper don’t change and while the character of Jenny changes, it isn’t for the better.

However, I am not sure if children would benefit from seeing Kids. would it teach children a life lesson and show them the consequences of unsafe sex? and make them realize the world is full of horror despair, despite what they're parents may tell them.
