The content of this page was created directly by users and has not been screened or verified by IMDb staff.
Since the beliefs that parents want to instill in their children can vary greatly, we ask that instead of adding your personal opinions about what is right or wrong in a film, that you instead use this feature to help parents make informed viewing decisions by describing the facts of relevant scenes in the title for each one of the different categories: Sex and Nudity, Violence and Gore, Profanity, Alcohol/Drugs/Smoking, and Frightening/Intense Scenes.
Visit our Parents Guide Help to learn more

Sex & Nudity

Rated R for violent images involving domestic abuse, pervasive language and some graphic sexuality.

A man and a woman kiss in bed passionately (as well as grope each other). It is implied that an underage woman has had sex. The dialogue is sexually-graphic at times. A man pours ice water down his pants.

Violence & Gore

During a boxing match, a man hits another's nose in slow-motion; we see a large amount of blood (the film is in black and white however, so the blood appears black) squirt out. We later hear than the latter had his "nose punched to the other side of his face."

A man repeatedly beats another man. He then grabs the man and repeatedly closes a car door on his head. There are several bloody and violent boxing matches. A man gets angry at his wife and verbally and physically attacks her. A man ambushes his brother and hits him repeatedly. A man punches and knocks out a woman out of rage.

Bloody, brutal, graphic, disturbing violence is constant throughout. NOT suitable for children.

Profanity

128 uses of the f-word and it's derivatives, many used with "mother."

About 3 uses of "cunt."

About 5 uses of "cocksucker."

Characters drink and smoke.

Some domestic abuse/violence may be too intense for young children.
