I loved the scene with all the hippies and flower children pondering over the linear programming results designed to maximize their own monetary returns.

The story was great, chillingly prophetic.

I only wish they wouldn’t have used all the foul language - it seemed that every other word was an f-bomb. Except for that, I’d watch it with a teenager.

Agreed, except most teenagers I know could beat me at a swearing contest, even though they don't do it around me out of respect.

Frankly, if it were me, I tell the teenager, "Look, I don't like the swearing in this film, but otherwise the film's main message is something I think that you should see. This is in my opinion -- to a large extent -- what the world looks like today. The question is, how we fix it". Kids get it, often better than we think they do.

But that's just my two cents on the issue.
