Sex & Nudity

  • A man mentions a "bag of semen".
  • We momentarily see (from some distance) a man kissing a woman (minor characters).

Violence & Gore

  • A man bites a man's nose and kicks him twice. A lot of blood can be seen on the man's face after his nose is bitten.
  • A man in a wheelchair falls down some stairs, and the wheelchair breaks, and a jagged metal part stabs him in the chest, and some blood can be seen, but he survives.
  • A man knocks another man out with a broken post from a bed.
  • A man punches another man in the face and knocks him out.
  • A man shoots another man from behind as he runs.
  • A woman pushes a man's head into a pipe and knocks him out.
  • A group of men shoot and firebomb an apartment room, and a man and woman inside manage to escape. No one is injured.
  • A woman tackles a man and slaps and hits him several times. Not violent or brutal.

Profanity

  • 6 uses of 'bitch', 4 uses of 'damn' (1 paired with "God"), 3 uses of 'shit', 3 uses of 'hell', 3 uses of "oh my God", and 3 uses of 'Jesus' and 'Christ' collectively as exclamations.

Alcohol, Drugs & Smoking

  • A man is injected with what appears to be truth serum by some bad guys.

Frightening & Intense Scenes

  • The action is pretty intense.
  • While this movie has a few very violent moments the R rating does seem a bit excessive. Aside from the violence there is nothing else here that would warrant anything higher than a PG-13 or even arguably PG. Suggested MPAA Rating: PG-13 for a moment of disturbing violence, peril and some language.
  • The nose-biting scene is fairly violent.
  • A male character stalks a female.

Spoilers

Violence & Gore

  • Two men struggle with each other, and one tries to drown the other, but the one being drowned pulls out a gun and shoots the other several times, and some bloody bullet wounds can be seen. The shooter is then shot by a woman, and he dies. The first man to be shot survives.

Frightening & Intense Scenes

  • The part where Jerry is interrogated/tortured is rather disturbing.
