flashing/flickering lights
This work contains flashing images which may affect viewers who are susceptible to photosensitive epilepsy.
additional issues
Occasional scenes of moderate gun threat occur throughout. Infrequent strong language ('f**k') is accompanied by milder terms such as 'son of a bitch', 'crap', 'bastard', 'screw up' and 'hell'. There is a scene of drug misuse in which a character smokes heroin. Images from film posters and an adult magazine feature sexualised breast nudity. A character admonishes a Taiwanese man for not speaking Japanese; this is accompanied by physical violence. There is also use of the term 'Jap'. However, discrimination is clearly not endorsed by the film as a whole.
