violence
There is strong, brutal violence throughout such as stabbings, shootings, hangings, impalings and throat slashings, often resulting in bloody detail. After stabbing a woman, a man sadistically licks her blood from the knife. A man uses a pen to attack a gang, repeatedly stabbing at them. Stylised fight-scenes are frequent, crunchy and impactful.
threat and horror
A scorned man pours petrol over a scared woman and attempts to set her alight. In another prolonged scene of strong threat, a woman, with strong anti-drug beliefs, is held down and forced to smoke marijuana.
language
Use of strong language in song lyrics ('motherf**ker') occurs alongside moderate ('bitch') and milder terms such as 'shit', 'friggin', 'bloody' and 'hell'.
sex
Mild sex references are infrequent. There is brief sight of photos of women posing in their underwear adorning the walls of a room; however, there is no nudity.
drugs
A man is seen preparing and injecting heroin. There is frequent sight of characters smoking marijuana as well as visual and verbal references to drug deals and drug misuse.
sexual violence and sexual threat
In a scene of sexual threat set in a hotel room, a man puts out a cigarette on the neck of a tied up, terrified and beaten woman and subsequently begins to unbutton his trousers; however, he is interrupted before any sexual violence takes place. A man reveals that a woman was raped by her stepfather at the age of 13, resulting in the birth of a baby boy.
injury detail
There is grisly sight of a severed head and feet in a box. Violence is often accompanied by large blood spurts and bloody aftermath detail. Wounds are apparent on murdered corpses.
theme
Moments of mild emotional upset include characters expressing their profound grief at funerals.
alcohol and tobacco
Characters frequently smoke cigarettes.
