Sex & Nudity
Violence & Gore
Profanity
1 to 10

MPAA Rating: R

The rise of the Black Panther party in 1960's California is chronicled in this film directed by Mario Van Peebles.

SEX/NUDITY 3 - A woman's cleavage is exposed, and her panties are shown when a draft from a passing bus lifts up her skirt. There are a couple of obscene sexual references, one obscene sexual gesture.

VIOLENCE/GORE 8 - A boy is hit by a car and he is shown lying in a pool of blood. A man is shot several times and we see the bloody bulletholes as he's lying in blood. Several other people are shot: one is shown in the hospital with a huge, bloody wound on his torso. A man's finger is broken, to teach him a lesson (we hear the bone break and the man yell). Many scenes of police brutality: police threaten crowds of people and they viscously beat back a crowd with water and billyclubs. There are a couple of explosions and a couple of scenes of military violence are shown in the background.
