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. |

A group of unemployed intelligence agents are hired to
steal a box and try to complete the job even when they're double-crossed by their
employers. With Robert De Niro, Stellan Skarsgard, Jean Reno, Jonathan Pryce, Natascha
McElhone, Skipp Sudduth, Sean Bean, Michel Lonsdale and Féodor Atkine. [2:01]
SEX/NUDITY 1 - A woman climbs onto a man's lap and they kiss. It's implied
that they go on to more serious stuff. We briefly see a few women in bras.
VIOLENCE/GORE 8 - Lots of gunfire exchanged is in several different scenes;
lots of people are shot and killed (we see some bloody wounds and in a few instances we
see blood spurting from wounds and lots of blood on clothing). A man is shot in the
forehead; we see a dark hole where the bullet entered and then see him lying in a pool of
blood. A bloody, wounded man crawling away from a car is shot and killed. A man in a car
is shot in the head and blood splatters on the window. A little girl is nearly shot. A man
pours alcohol on a man's very bloody knee; we also see a man cut a man's side open with a
scalpel and pulls a bullet out with clamps (the wound is very bloody and we hear lots of
squishy noises as the man tries to find the bullet). We see a man who's neck has been slit
from ear-to-ear (his neck and clothing are very bloody). Several fights in which people
are punched, shoved and kicked (after one fight, a man's face is bloody and we later see
scabs and bruises on his face). After a man tackles another, they fall over a railing and
tumble down some steps (we see a little blood on one of the men's faces). Several car
chases; several cars are bombed and burst into flames, many crash into each other and/or
flip, several are bumped off the road and many nearly hit pedestrians. A driver is shot;
his car spins into a pole and explodes. A car drives off a bridge and flips several times
(we see bloody cuts on the passengers' faces). A car hits a motorcycle and the driver is
flung to the ground. Cars drive through fruit stands and one drives into tables at an
outdoor cafe and hits several diners.
PROFANITY 6 - About seven F-words, a scatological reference and a couple
mild obscenities. [profanity glossary]
DISCUSSION TOPICS - Organized crime, betrayal, international affairs.
MESSAGE - You never know who you can trust.

A CAVEAT: We've gone through several editorial changes since we started covering films in 1992 and some of our early standards were not as stringent as they are now. We therefore need to revisit many older reviews, especially those written prior to 1998 or so; please keep this in mind if you're consulting a review from that period. While we plan to revisit and correct older reviews our resources are limited and it is a slow, time-consuming process. |
