violence
People are shot, whipped or beaten, resulting in moderate bloody detail. A villain slaps his female lover for a minor infraction of his household rules. In another scene a bird is blown in half by the impact of a bullet, but the detail is not gory, and there is no evidence of real animal cruelty.
threat and horror
There are scenes of moderate threat involving the abduction of a group of frightened women.
sex
In a scene establishing off-screen sex, a woman gets into bed, removes her clothes under the covers and tells a man to ‘take’ her; the man then takes off his shirt and kisses her as the scene ends.
discrimination
A character addresses a man with a prosthetic leg as ‘the gimp’, prompting immediate retribution. An official report describes a Japanese man as having ‘yellow’ skin and ‘mixed blood’.
injury detail
Violence results in moderate images of blood and wounds. For example, bullet impacts occasionally create small blood spurts or leave bloody aftermath detail, and a scene of whipping features sight of bloody cuts on the victim's back and arms.
additional issues
Bad language includes ‘bastard’, ‘shit’, ‘ass’, ‘hell’, ‘jerk’, ‘screwed up’ and ‘goddamnit’. Other issues include a passing reference to drug trafficking, which is not condoned.
