Sleepers (1996)
very powerful movie
This movie was powerful because it shows that no extreme act of cruelty should go unpunished. The child abuse scenes are strong, but they are meant to show the viewers just how bad the children in the home had to suffer, in other words, the abuse was depicted to make a point. I wouldn't recommend this movie to anyone under the age of 16 because of its disturbing violence, but everyone over 16 should see this movie to learn that no matter what you do, no one deserves to be treated in the way the boys at the detention center were. It also shows what years of abuse can turn a person into.
Blown Away (1992)
interesting plot with a good message to teenagers
I saw this movie 5 days ago and I loved it. It has a interesting plot of a girl named Megan who convinces her new boyfriend Rich that her father killed her mother and he should die too. Rich helps megan in doing this because he has fallen head over heals for her. As the film progresses, only rich gets caught for the murder of megan's father. He is confined to prison, but Megan soon bails him out. After this happens, Rich finds out that megan isn't what she appears to be. The message the movie sends is that you shouldn't trust a person just because you have fallen for him or her. I wouldn't recommend it for anyone under 16 because of the nudity. But people over sixteen should see it so they can learn that love and lust are two completely different things.
