violence
People are shot, stabbed or bludgeoned, occasionally creating spurts of blood. Another person is impaled on a tree branch, with strong bloody aftermath detail. Milder violence includes crunchy fist fights and sequences of attempted drowning and strangulation.
threat and horror
There are intense scenes of threat, including hostage situations, foot chases, and threatening behaviour using knives and guns.
language
There is use of strong language (‘f**k’, ‘bumbaclot’). Milder terms include ‘prick’, ‘bitch, ‘shit’, ‘bullshit’, ‘arse’, ‘bastard’ and ‘bloody’.
sexual violence and sexual threat
A villain wrestles a terrified teenage girl onto a bed and pins her down with the implied intention of raping her, but he is prevented from doing so by the intervention of another person. Later, the man makes further sexual advances towards the girl to which she pretends to acquiesce, allowing him to squeeze her chest through her clothes, but it clearly is a ruse on her part to facilitate her escape.
injury detail
Strong injury detail includes occasional images of bloodied corpses and bleeding wounds.
additional issues
Infrequent references to drugs and drug dealing include brief sight of bags of white powder; drug misuse is not condoned. A character threatens to take their own life in order to gain leverage during a tense hostage negotiation.
