additional issues
Scenes of mild horror include some prolonged threat, such as Kong causing destruction in a city as people run away screaming. Mild violence includes shoot-out scenes, and a scene in which Kong causes men to fall to their death. Later a man compares a woman's need for fame to 'dope' use. There are discriminatory stereotypes, in addition to a use of the racist term ‘wogs’ by an unlikeable character. Mild bad language includes ‘bitching’, ‘shit’, ‘asshole’, ‘ass’, ‘bastard’, ‘piss’ and ‘son of a bitch’.
