Well we're five days in, and I have been proved wrong: No complaints about the language from the seniors.

On the other hand, there haven't been THAT many seniors showing up, so maybe the ones coming are used to that kind of language. I still think about 85% of it is unnecessary. Some scenes it's just too over the top.

Here about 85% of the crowd is women aged 40 to about 70.

Mike,

I’m still a few years out from being a senior citizen, and I objected to the language. If they deleted it all, you’d chop five minutes from the movie at least and take nothing away from the story.

And I’m in the minority, not liking the movie. I’ve seen the first two versions and What Price Hollywood. Those had star power. This version was bland. No spark, no zip. Andrew Dice Clay was impressive, I think he had about the most personality, and you had to look really hard to see it was him.
