End of Watch

Went to see End of Watch yesterday with Jake  Gyllenhaal and Michael Pena.

The movie follows these 2 cops around on their normal everyday calls in South Central LA.  There is murder, mayhem, drugs, human trafficking, and the F word at least 1100 times.  

At one point they find a room in house a foot deep in blood with body parts everywhere.  

In another scene a lady who is so high she can't see reports that her kids are missing.  Keep in mind the police won't respond to missing persons report for 24 hours.  The cops come to the house, the lady is high, the guy tells the cops the kids are with their Grandma, cops find a meth lab in the kitchen and find an 8 month old duct taped in her car seat with tape over her mouth and a 2 year old duct taped so he can't move with tape over his mouth.  The 2 year old was high.

Why did I go see this awful revelation of human indignity you ask?

I have a better question:  

Why did 2 adults bring 3 children under the age of 5 to this movie?  The sat right behind us.  

I was so appalled and depressed that my spider monkey didn't lift her head.  I cried instead.
