» In the next few weeks we will be trying out In-Text Advertising, a new type of advertising that we think is less intrusive than many other formats. Basically, keywords on our pages that correspond to an advertiser's product or service will be double-underlined in green. More details here.
Denzel Washington tries to kill a criminal who's a computer
program (Russell Crowe) and now in the real-world.
SEX/NUDITY 4 - A brief view of a woman's breasts. A man is "born"
naked and we see his buttocks in an extended scene. We see a man's bare chest a couple of
times and a computer program of a bikini-clad woman caressing herself; a man (in the same
program) also caresses her. A man in a club is seen in bikini briefs after being forced to
take off his suit.
VIOLENCE/GORE 8 - There are numerous scenes of people being killed and/or
maimed in numerous ways: Men are shot (one man is shot many times in the chest and torso
causing blood to splatter), two men are shown being electrocuted (they convulse and
scream), a man's neck is broken, a man is strangled, a man is thrown to his death, a woman
is bitten in the neck, a man is bludgeoned to death and a man's hand is blown off. There
are also fist fights and prison guards beat a man with clubs. Flashbacks of a scene where
a man's family is blown up and he is left without an arm. We see a thick needle go in
behind a man's ear; a thick stream of blood comes out. A man cuts his finger off
(close-up) and we see weird goop come out of the stump. A crime scene has blood smeared on
a wall and we see brief glimpses of bloody hands and torsos. A man is nearly poked in the
face with glass.
