SEX/NUDITY 5 - Some instances of sexual innuendo (including a reference to
anal sex) and a few kisses. A man and woman observe at a distance another man and woman
kissing passionately, and for awhile the camera cuts back and forth between the two
couples. In one of the scenes the woman remove the man's jacket, the man eventually
undresses her down to thong underwear (we see a shot of the man touching her nearly
completely bare buttocks and we also see the side of her bare breast), and then they fall
onto a bed, presumably ready to have intercourse. In the other scene, a woman straddles a
car's stick shift to get closer to a man in the driver's seat, says some sexual innuendo,
and then they kiss briefly (we see a close-up of his hand touching right below her clothed
breast). We hear a woman moaning sexually on the other end of a phone conversation. A
woman suggestively licks a man's finger and a woman suggestively licks her lips. We see
two unclothed corpses: one's bare chest is visible (a sheet covers the rest of the body)
and one is naked (the camera quickly pans the body but we don't see any genitalia, just
the side of the leg, hip, and waist). We see a woman wearing a bikini top.
VIOLENCE/GORE 6 - A man hits another man and sends him falling through
warehouse rafters to his death (we briefly see the dead body with some bloody facial
cuts). A man is shot in the shoulder; we see a bit of blood on his jacket and hands (he's
fine in a later scene). Three men are hit and knocked off a platform by a large steel
junkyard clamp. A man is handcuffed to the steering wheel of a car, then almost squished
to death in a car compactor. A man hangs by his fingers high above the ground. A man hits
another man with a car door; a man puts another's head through a car window; a man throws
another through a glass window; a few men are punched in the face or stomach (in one
scene, a man punches another's face with brass knuckles, resulting in a bloody lip); a few
men are kicked (sometimes repeatedly) in the face, chest, groin or leg; a man tries to
choke another; and in two scenes a man grabs another's shirt and also pushes him. A little
threatening with knives (in one scene a man appears to threaten to cut open a dog) and
several instances of threatening with guns (in some scenes gunfire is exchanged but no one
is shot, in a couple other scenes a car is shot repeatedly). A few car chase scenes with
lots of reckless driving and near crashes; also, a car runs through a lawn sign, a man
drives a car through a glass window, a car hits a bus, a car runs into the back of a
tractor, a car backs into another car, a car is hit by a wrecking ball that knocks it
through a brick wall, and a car runs another car off a parking garage ramp (none of the
passengers appears to be hurt after these incidents). A large compressed air tank hits a
few cars and flies through a car's windshield, causing it to wreck. A man attaches a
truck's towing chain to a car; when the truck starts moving, the car is pulled apart and
catches fire briefly (mostly electrical sparks and smoke). Four cars explode after a man
ignites one car's gas tank. A man knocks out a car window with a bat. A frying pan on a
hot stove catches fire. It's implied a man searches through a dogs feces for car keys.
PROFANITY 5 - Possibly two partially heard F-words, lots of anatomical and
scatological references, many mild obscenities, and several insults. [profanity glossary]

anti-Americanism, morality, justice, drug dealing.
