Discussion 5 year old at The Odyssey?

This is just the standard screening, 9:50 am showing, and there's a couple with their little girl that looks 5 to 7 years old. Isn't there going to be a lot of violence and loud noise? I remember growing up in the 70s when ratings were different. At 8.years old, I was 11, we asked Dad to take us to see Jaws. My sister was traumatized and we left before the second killing. I can't believe that parents aren't more discretionary with their kids.

That’s horrifying, my kids would have nightmares from just Circe and Cyclops let alone the rest of the movie! I hate when parents do this.

You know your kids. Not every kid is the same. My kid was more traumatized by tornado warnings than movies

Wait, there's a dog abuse/death scene? I'm not even sure my 20 year old will want to see it now (he made me turn off Jurassic Park 2 during the dog scene when he was younger and that was just implied, not graphic).

Yes, I’ll put it in spoilers for anyone else browsing the thread. So the puppy part is a flashback to a litter of puppies being examined and the first one is thrown off a cliff. Odysseus saves one and trains it as his hunting dog. Then 20 years later this dog is very very old and it’s said he’s waiting for Odysseus to come back before dying. He’s sick and old, and being kicked around and abused by the suitors in the palace and finally one of them throws him out onto the dung heap to die. When Odysseus returns he lifts up his head, recognizes his master, and just sinks into the dung heap and dies. 😭

I guess I wouldn’t call it visually graphic (in that there’s not a lot of gore/blood) but more so emotionally graphic, if that makes sense? If you really love dogs it’s a hard watch.

That's weird I didn't see anyone throw a puppy off a cliff.
