Making a movie shit to have a “larger” audience is something i would call economic suicide, and inability to plan with stuff like IMDB Rotten-Tomatoes and similar.

Yes, it was a bad decision all around.

If they had committed to it being 18 rated, it would likely have been much better and more enjoyable as a movie.

I’m not saying they made the right decision, I’m only saying that I understand the chain of thought going through some executive’s head that lead to this decision being made and the end product we now have.

The entire problem is that movies are often made with the primary intention to make money, rather than being made to be the best possible movie they can be, and that can be a huge hindrance to the final product.
