violence
Violence includes multiple boxing matches featuring heavy blows, sometimes rendered in slow motion and infrequently resulting in spurts of blood from fighters' faces. In one scene, a young boy punches his bully at school.
threat and horror
Scenes of mild threat include chases, verbal and physical threats of violence, and a sequence in which a man hides from police after attempting to commit a crime.
language
There is infrequent mild bad language ('piss', 'crap') and milder terms including 'hell'.
sex
Occasional mild sex references include allusions to a man having multiple extra-marital affairs, and a sequence implying a man has sex with a woman, although no detail occurs on screen.
discrimination
A boy's teacher and classmates mistreat and bully him because he is poor. Allusions are made to racism in America, and a man's age and weight are commented on when he attempts to start boxing again.
rude humour
Infrequent rude humour includes a fart joke and a person vomiting when exercising. In a non-humorous scene, a man covers himself in sewage to avoid a police dog.
theme
There are scenes of emotional upset, such as when a family fears for the lives of a mother and baby during labour. The family pray and believe their prayers are answered when both mother and child survive unharmed.
alcohol and smoking
People smoke and drink, but one man's alcoholism is aversively depicted.
