I watched the movie, and in a vacuum, I can see where the more controversial scenes can be interpreted as lascivious. But in the context of the movie, it really didn't feel out of place at all. The scenes are intentionally awkward, and I think part of the film's message is to make you feel uncomfortable. It tackles several themes, actually, and has quite some depth. Really, the biggest complaint I have is the movie is rather boring.

I tried to watch some videos, but every single one is a reactionary take that uses a hammer when a chisel would be far more appropriate. Anyone come across any reviews or videos that take the issue rather seriously, but can also critique the film on its own merits?

    Do you hold similar consternation to the desensitization and glorification of violence?

    Well, like everything, it depends on the context. I

    Also, should we apply strict “no dancing” for minors restrictions on social media?

    I don't think so, because I'm generally against censorship, but how social media should be regulated is a whole different can of worms. I never suggested that Cuties should be censored in any way, I just said that I disagree with the director and I don't like how she shot it. I think the director is guilty of the very sexualization she condemns.
