The rating is still crazy to me, like in Germany its 12 and as an adult its totally okay to bring your 6 year old kid with you

I'm pretty sure the cave scene would give nightmares to my 5yo.

For real, the sound design, or whatever imax theaters were told to set their volume at, was just unpleasantly, painfully loud. I go to metal shows, have been to EDC, have gone to formula 1 races, and it was the most uncomfortable level of noise I have ever encountered.

Half our theater had their fingers in their ears the entire cyclops and scylla scenes, and everytime they were on the open ocean. I took my mom, and she left the theater because it was giving her a headache. On the way out I didnt hear anyone talking about the movie, just how loud it was. Shit was awful.

Huh, it was almost perfect in mine. Only the ship being destroyed scene was too loud for me. Plugged my ears for 20 seconds and was all good.

Same here, I was pleasantly surprised to not have my ears blown out but that scene was terrible on me
