violence
Scenes include impactful fight scenes in which combatants use guns, knives, hammers, broken bottles and fists. However, sight of blood or injury detail during such fights is limited, and one of the people involved is superpowered and does not suffer injuries like a human. There are sequences in which bullies physically and verbal assault others, including the protagonist. In one particular scene, it is implied a young man uses a wrench to break a young teen's arm, but impact occurs off screen and there is no injury detail.
threat and horror
Scenes include people - including children - being chased, threatened with knives and guns, and trapping in a burning building. A man is threatened with a blow torch during an interrogation, but it is not used on him.
language
There is infrequent strong language ('f**k') and use of milder terms including 'bitch', 'dick', 'crap', 'pussy', 'shit', 'ass', 'hell', 'God', 'damn' and 'son of a bitch'.
injury detail
After a superhuman man is hit by a car his limbs appear to be contorted, indicating broken bones. However, he soon heals due to his fantastical powers. During a shirtless scene, he is revealed to have extensive scarring from burns on his back.
additional issues
There is an undetailed reference to a man attempting to take his own life, but someone saves him. References are made to twin brothers losing their parents in an arson attack. There are scenes of rioting and looting, and young teens are encouraged by gang members to become involved in criminal actions, but the work as a whole does not condone this.
