Common Sense Note

Parents need to know that this movie is about an international arms dealer and includes explicit images of explosions, gun battles, dead bodies. An early, striking sequence follows a bullet from manufacture through sales and shipping to its eventual endpoint in a boy's head -- the screen goes red. It also features frequent cursing, smoking, sexual promiscuity and unclothed female prostitutes, as well as drug use; one of the dealers becomes a serious cocaine and heroin addict, the other becomes addicted to the rush of selling contraband. The film reduces complex points about international markets and politics.

Sexual Content

Prostitution; several undressed women and R-rated sex acts.

Violence

Explosions and action, as well as brutal torture and murders.

Language

Hard, pointed cursing; frequent f-words.

Social Behavior

In spite of an ultimate stand against violence, the arms dealers are not redeemed or sorry for what they do.

Consumerism

Theme is selling arms, with references to commercial culture specifically.

Drugs / Tobacco / Alcohol

Drinking, smoking, drug use; addiction is a theme.
