Common Sense Note
Parents need to know that The Condemned 2 is technically a sequel to 2007's The Condemned, even though they have very little to do with each other aside from dealing with illegal gambling rings (the kind that gamble on human beings). Expect many scenes of rich people passing money around and laughing and shouting while they watch others on video screens get shot. Violence is strong: Many characters are killed (via shooting, stabbing, and explosions), with blood shown, as well as knives and guns. One gruesome scene has a "game" in which spectators bet on which of two homeless men -- both hooked up to IV tubes -- will die first. Language includes multiple uses of "f--k" and "s--t." Characters drink beer in social or background ways, and in one scene, two women are clearly ogled and objectified.
