violence
We see people stabbed, slashed and shot, resulting in sight of blood spurts in action scenes throughout the film. In one moment, a man is bludgeoned to death. There are also fights which include heavy punches, kicks, head butts and an implied neck break.
threat and horror
Scenes of personalised threat include verbal intimidation and moments of gun threat. A man has a hood put over his head when captured by criminals, and a woman is grabbed by several men and kidnapped. Prisoners are restrained and threatened with violence.
language
There is strong language ('maderchod', 'motherf**ker', 'f**k'), as well as milder terms (for example, 'bloody', 'shit').
sex
Mild sex references include sight of a couple kissing and caressing one another and verbal mention of sexual activity.
drugs
Criminal characters discuss the arrival of a shipment of illegal drugs.
sexual violence and sexual threat
A man makes brief, undetailed verbal sexual threats to intimidate a woman after taking her prisoner; these threats are not carried out.

violence
People are shot, bludgeoned or attacked with blades, creating spurts of blood. Fight scenes and beatings feature crunchy kicks and punches, neck breaks, and blows with improvised weapons including bottles, bats and burning planks of wood. Several men are set on fire, without strong detail.
language
There is infrequent use of strong language (‘maderc**d’). Milder terms include ‘bloody’ and ‘shit’.
injury detail
We see strong bloody detail in the aftermath of violence, including severed limbs, bloody wounds, and dead and injured people lying in large pools of blood or trailing blood as they are dragged along the ground.
additional issues
There are moderate scenes of threatening and aggressive behaviour, as well as brief sexual threat when a male villain says he wants to ‘taste’ a frightened female prisoner. A couple are briefly shown embracing and caressing one another in bed, implying off-screen sex, and another scene contains a crude reference to a woman having ‘tamed’ a man ‘between her legs’. Other issues include infrequent verbal references to drug dealing, which is not condoned.
