    Powerful

    by redyeah

    Eckhart plays the bad guy pretty well. This is such a hard film to watch because of its content. You have to realize these types of movies are done in order to show the bad side of society in order to explain how awful it is. Not for entertainment' sake.

    Salacious

    Definately a guy flick. Lots of titalating stuff. Yet, you see how the writer/producer tries to be politically correct (even to the point of outright sexism agains men) towards the end of the movie. This ruins an otherwise great flick. We see an attempt to criminalize an older man's lust for a young woman - while its okay for a young man to have the very same lust with the very same girl.
    Too bad. Trying to be Politically correct is okay in politics, not in a story on life.

    Bad Movie with pedophile & porn elements

    The worst and most offensive movie of the year is called ? Towel Head? which was previously named "Nothing Is Private". Written and directed by Alan Ball, the man behind "American Beauty" makes a film that the general public will hate. This very bad movie has graphic depiction of sexual, mental and physical child abuse. It is kiddie porn. Pedophiles should LOVE this movie. The movie shows actor Aaron Eckhart having sex with a 13-year-old girl played by actress, Summer Bishil. Among sick elements in the film, he rapes her and later sodomizes her. In between, his pedophilia is played in such a way that it is like watching graphic kiddie porn. Too much is shown and too many lines are crossed in this movie for NO redeeming value. Where do these people get the money to make this TRASH !!!! Go see something else - this film is Thumbs way DOWN.

    Funny and touching

    by Moviedude

    This movie was funny and touching. The story was very believable in a quirky weird sort of way, and the connections made to real life were spot-on. Well-acted, Aaron Eckhart in a much different role, Summer Bishil was fantastic. Great movie, one of the year's best
