Jack Irish: Dead Point

violence

There are several violent shootings, one of which causes a spurt of blood. A man repeatedly punches a woman during a brutal mugging, with subsequent sight of facial swelling and bruising. Moderate violence includes punches, kicks and blows with heavy objects.

language

There is use of strong language (‘f**k’). Milder terms include ‘prick’, ‘shit’, ‘bloody’, ‘dick’, ‘crap’, ‘bastard’, ‘arsehole’ and ‘screw’, in addition to use of the ‘middle finger’ gesture. There is also infrequent comic use of the discriminatory term ‘eyetie’.

sex

We see brief extracts from a couple’s sex tape, featuring riding detail, breast nudity and sexual moaning. There is a reference to auto-erotic asphyxiation, as well as moderate verbal references to sex tapes and pornography.

injury detail

There are brief flashback images of a woman’s bloodied dead body and of a man shooting himself in the head, creating a spurt of blood. In another scene we see a dead woman with a wound running across her throat.

additional issues: There are visual and verbal references to heroin abuse and drug dealing, including brief sight of bricks of drugs and drug paraphernalia and a close-up image of track marks on a corpse’s arm. Other issues include scenes of moderate knife and gun threat, and infrequent suicide references.
