Just watched the movie, Joshua. It is not a feel good movie; and mostly I was wondering if this movie had any negative effect on Jacob who played Joshua? I would not let my child make a movie like this. If someone said that Jacob is grounded and this movie did not change him, I would disagree. His mental and emotional development is still in the formation stage. Seeing adult behaving this way, and the character he plays has to effect him in a negative matter.
Please make movies that make you feel good. How about some wholesome family living. Let's see a movie that shows a family working together where calm discussion solves problems. There might be some kids that can learn that families can function positively on all aspects of family life. The world needs this. There is enough problems out there without creating new ones. And while I'm at it, quit making movies where people are being killed right and left with the blood splattering across the screen. That is not entertainment..I had a neighbor a couple months ago who answered the doorbell, and a kid shot and killed her(totally random) . Make good movies and be happy when you take your last breath on this earth, that you improved people's lives not make them worse.
