Common Sense Note

Parents need to know this movie contains graphic violence. There are machine gun killings, brutal beatings, betrayals, blood. The murders are not unnecessarily gory or lengthy, but their startling abruptness and the expressions of horror on the victims' faces make these images unforgettable. The violence always has gravity. There is brief nudity and sex, and a few curse words. Children too young to see the violence in this film wouldn't be able to appreciate the intricacies of the plot and so would have no interest in the movie.

Sexual Content

Brief nudity (breasts), brief sex scene (fully clothed).

Violence

Numerous graphic murders, domestic fights, beatings.

Language

A few curses, numerous racial slurs.

Social Behavior

Disobeying the law and murdering enemies is a necessary evil. All authority is corrupt.
