The Christian Film and Television Commission are challenging the Motion Picture Association of America, and is petitioning for children under the age of 17 to be restricted from watching it.

On the CFTVC website it says the film is “the most violent movie of the year and is full of  brutality, graphic violence, and crude language.”

Django Unchained, starring Jamie Foxx and Leonardo DiCaprio to name a few has been described by the group as “grotesque” and is currently rated “R”.

The organisation’s campaign is in light of the recent Sandy Hook School tragedy in America.
