There are lengthy scenes of innocent animal-type creatures being terrified, tortured, vivisected, and subjected to gruesome experiments.

There's a whole town where human-type creatures look like experiments from the Island of Dr. Moreau.

There are many, many actual human children in cages, though the movie does not show them being otherwise maltreated. That is saved for the animal creatures.

There is a scene of someone getting their face literally peeled off, followed by a long, full-screen closeup of exactly what that looks like. frazzled.rip anyone?

It's all right there in this extremely popular film, though judging by the audience around me they will barely notice that and are only there for the comedy, slapstick, arguments and loads of stuff blowing up.

That's fine, but someone went to great expense to put the above-described scenes into this movie.

What did you think?
