ASSIGNED NUMBERS

Unlike the MPAA we do not assign one inscrutable rating based on age, but 3 objective ratings for SEX/NUDITY, VIOLENCE/GORE and PROFANITY on a scale of 0 to 10, from lowest to highest, depending on quantity and context.

MPAA Rating: R

Framed for the murder of her husband, a woman (Ashley Judd) survives prison with two burning desires sustaining her: finding her son and solving the mystery that destroyed her once-happy life. Standing between her and her quest is her parole officer (Tommy Lee Jones). Also with Bruce Greenwood, Annabeth Gish, Roma Maffia and Davenia McFadden.

A man shoots many times at a couple hitting the man in the shoulder and we see some blood. A woman threatens a man with a gun and then shoots at him. There is blood on a woman's hands, clothes, a door and the deck of a boat. There is a lot of blood on a table and a bloody knife (seen twice). A woman hits a man in the head with a gun leaving a bloody wound and a man slams a woman's head into a concrete pillar. A couple fights over a gun rolling around on the floor, hitting and kicking.
