    Do I want to watch a movie that features 11 year old girls twerking? Fuck no.

    But the entire premise of the movie is to show how perverted our social media culture is and how manipulated young girls are by the shit they're being exposed to. We don't really know how fucked up this current generation of kids are going to turn out to be, and that's the exact theme this movie explores.

    If you don't think having child actresses girating around is the best way to get that point across, well, it'd be hard to disagree with you.

    Call me old-fashioned, but mainstreaming 11 year-olds spreading their ass cheeks, grinding on the floor, and slapping their vaginas while being filmed with dozens of adults watching sends any sort of message other than the Hollywood perverts got off on it.

    The general public doesn’t seem quite as enthused on whatever message the director now claims. One of the lowest Audience scores on Rotten Tomatoes in history.

    "But the entire premise of the movie is to show how perverted our social media culture is and how manipulated young girls are by the shit they're being exposed to." This is just sh*t they made up after the sh*t storm started. Do you actually think that's what the producers were going for? The current narrative was never present in the original netflix film description or in the initial positive film reviews including winning a Sundance award. Geezus.

    You know Netflix didn't produce this, right? They just bought the distribution rights. And for some reason decided to market it as an even grosser version of Toddlers and Tiaras. And they were rightfully shit on for it.

    How could you possibly know the supposed well meaning overarching message if you haven't watched the movie?

    Are there a bunch of clips out there demonstrating your "fact"? Because the multiple clips Ive seen make it crystal fucking clear what the movie is selling....

    Imagine arguing that you aren't a murderer, you just were killing someone on camera to demonstrate how bad it is to murder someone.

    IN THE NAME OF THE ART!

    Ya, we cancelled Netflix.

    Imagine a room of adults instructing little kids to do this.

    There's probably a real documentary about sex trafficked teenage hookers or something done in a serious way. They don't want to do that because scumbags like Bob Kraft would get exposed.

    This is just....sick.
