Now, I've been reading a little about Apocalypse Now. The only thing I see here is getting this movie by my Mom. She tries to be protective and what not. There's apparently some nudity in this movie and she won't be a big fan of that. My Dad will probably let me see it though. He lets me watch tons of stuff. Heck, every once in a while we sit and watch Curb Your Enthusiasm, Trailer Park Boys, and all kinds of other stuff. (Both of those shows are hilarious. I especially like Curb Your Enthusiasm. )

If I can, I'll pick up Apocalypse Now. If not, well...I can always watch it with somebody else. It all depends on what my Mom thinks. You would think that she would loosen up a little bit but she doesn't like me watching that stuff and if she's against it I won't be seeing the movie.

I assume that you are 100 if you are able to purchase the games that you play so you should also be able to buy any R rated movie.It does not really have much nudity the longest bit is Martin Sheen's but in the beginning when he has a drunken fit in his hotel room and brief bit with some Playboy Playmates at a USO show.

I would be more concerned about the violence than the nudity but I am not your mother.She allows you to play Dead Island where you can cut zombies limbs off of but no naked ladies.

If she allowed you to watch "Full Metal Jacket" which has no nudity but does have a heaping helping of sexual references I would try reasoning with her that "Apocalypse Now" is no more violent than FMJ is and actually in the 1979 only very briefly shows a chick flash her top besides that its sexual content is much milder than FMJ is. Really this is the 21st century I have no doubt that you have seen a lot more than what "Apocalypse Now" contains.

If you are 100 you could also you could point out that the law considers you mature enough to see the kinds of things that an r rated movie might contain.

I can think of a lot of other things a teenage male in the United States could be doing with his spare time that are far worse than seeing 10 seconds of naked women in a movie.I dont know some mothers are funny about these things and others do not seem to care.
