violence
A character is shot multiple times in front of a child, mostly off-screen. This is accompanied by a large blood spurt and results in bloody aftermath detail.
language
Occasional strong language ('f**k', 'motherf**ker') occurs, as well as moderate bad language ('bitch) and milder terms such as 'ass', 'shit', 'bullshit', 'God' and 'damn'. There is frequent peer-to-peer use of racial language ('n***a').
additional issues
There are brief scenes of drug misuse in which characters share a joint. Verbal references are made to a woman being a ‘crackhead’. There are infrequent moderate references to masturbation and cunnilingus. A vulnerable woman verbally offers sexual favours in exchange for her son’s safety and begins to remove her top, however, another character quickly intervenes. There is a scene of moderate injury detail in which a character extracts a bullet out of a man's bruised upper arm. Scenes of moderate threat occur in which characters are chased and threatened with gun violence.
