violence
There are bloody stabbings, spearings and shootings. People are set alight or caught in explosions. Hand to hand fighting includes crunchy punches and kicks. A man is electrocuted and another is impaled on spiked railings, but we do not see detail of the impact.
language
There is strong language ('motherf**ker', 'f**k') along with milder terms including 'pussy', 'shit', 'crap', 'piss', 'dick', 'ass', 'asshole', 'screw', 'Jesus', 'Christ', 'hell' and 'damn'.
drugs
A character injects heroin but we do not see any detail of its preparation; it is implied a man keeps a woman addicted to heroin to control her. There are verbal references to amphetamine use, drug addiction and to going 'cold turkey'.
injury detail
There is sight of bloody injuries and bloodied dead bodies in the aftermath of violence. A pair of testicles, kept preserved in a jar, is seen in an out-of-focus shot.
nudity
There is sexualised female breast nudity. Police discover a woman's bloody, naked dead body; there is brief focus on her upper torso and breasts.
A man implies to another that he intends to rape a woman, but this threat is not carried out. Two male police officers sexually harass a female sex worker in custody, but she is defiant. There are verbal references to masturbation and sex, and implied sex between people. There is racism directed toward Black characters, including racial profiling by police officers. A man is threatened with torture by blowtorch and on another occasion with having his testicles cut off. There is gun and knife threat, and people are threatened with murder. There are undetailed verbal references to suicide and a man pretends to be mentally ill to escape a violent confrontation.
