Nu Metro
Showing R rated DVD releases at a kids movie

I took my to young boys to see the new Despicable me 2 movie at Nu Metros Canal Walk facility. As the previews rolled up one for the new DVD release of "Hansel and Gretel" was shown on the screen. The trailer itself was pretty explicit leaving very little to the imagination. Having seen the film myself I am acutely aware that is nowhere close to being a little fairy tale that the boys have in their books at home.

Both boys were upset by trailer and were persistently asking questions about crossbows and why Hansel killed people. The movie house was PACKED with kids ail waiting to see an animated movie.

Where are your reasonable bounds for showing R rated content to these kids? It's disgusting and in my mind criminal.

My boys were upset to see such characters portrayed in this light and your business subjected them to it.
What do you have to say for yourselves? There is no way this can be legal?
