How gruesome is this movie?

My family members are not particularly sensitive but they will likely be watching this film when it is rented soon and one of them grimaced when I mentioned that it was about a pedophile etc.

Dont spoil it. I have a fair idea of what MIGHT be in this film..

I would say a 2. Most of the violence is implied.

It has a dark tone to it, but it really isn't that extreme. Ellen Page is incredible.

I would say it's her second best. I haven't seen it in years, though. I owe it a re-watch.

...2. Really?

This movie is graphic. The only way they couldn't show some of the scenes is because it would have garnered an NC-17 rating.

There is violence, torture, language, murder, etc. in this film.

I STRONGLY recommend you watch this movie by yourself first or with a friend before you watch it with your family.

I would give this movie at least a 6 in the intensity factor. Some of the scenes are implied, but that doesn't make them any less intense. Trust me. This movie WILL question your ethics and morals.

They're intense, but they don't show the violence happen.

They don't show it because they can't. The one scene that they censored completely is still intense even without the camera being right there.

I consider myself pretty open to intense or violent movies. I've seen a fair few in my time. This movie still makes me shiver.

That scene should make any man shiver, but that's really the only violent scene.

Regardless, the person posting this was intending to watch this movie with his/her family. Not really a family friendly film. Unless your family is pretty open to intense movies I suppose.

You're wrong about that. They didn't show it because it didn't happen, they wanted you to feel like you were watching it happen. I'd give the movie a 2 as well, simply because of that scene, nothing else was really gruesome. I've shown my entire family that movie and they all liked it, I mean yeah it is kind of disturbing but now half as bad as some people make it seem
