Review of Savages (2012) by Robbin O — 24 Feb 2013
I rented this movie because I like movies from Oliver Stone and I like John Travolta, Salma Hayek and Benicio Del Toro. I really did not know what to expect. I originally chose the unrated version on the DVD but it would not let me choose this option unless I owned it.
Well, after seeing the theatrical version I can only imagine what that unrated version must be like. As it was, I hid my eyes a lot and had a time watching the sex scenes with my older (20 something) kids and one of their male friends in the same room, and the violence was way more than plenty for me, so I probably would not have liked that version as well.
As it was, I really liked it, and in true Oliver Stone form it kept me glued to the set from beginning to end (except for the parts I had to to hide my eyes because I am such a wuss, but I think I was the only one in the room doing this.
).
