What a fantastic film on so many levels!

The film reviewer on Fox & Friends, Bill McCuddy, said he's not going to see it and recommends that others don't either because of the violence.

I am unfamiliar with Mr. McCuddy but he is wrong on this...as many reviewers are.

The violence is understated...yes really. It is not the in your face sensational pointless violence that frequently shows up in movies today...the slasher/gore films.

The film accurately depicts the blood involved in hunting for animal or human game...but is always subtly shown. for example in the pyramid scenes that many object to - the viewer does not see the actual blade chop off the head...we see from a distance a head going down the steps.

Well there is lots more to say...but certainly Hitchcock would have approved...he was after all the master at showing moving the narrative along with violence as an appropriate prop...not the central point.

Give it a try if you are at all interested in the history of the culture and era. If not there is always lots of trite, mind numbing fare out there.
