violence
Strong bloody violence includes a prolonged sequence in which a woman is tortured for information by a man who repeatedly punches her in the face, with realistic injury detail as her features start to swell and her face becomes bloody. She fights back, and the sequence continues with strong violence, including her using an aerosol to make a flamethrower and set fire to the man's head. There is a dwelling on the infliction of pain and injury, and a sense that the man takes some sadistic pleasure from beating the woman. Further strong violence includes a long gun-fight, with frequent slow-motion focus on large spurts of blood as people are shot, and another torture scene in which the palm of a man's hand is cut with a knife.
additional issues
Other issues include frequent strong language ('f**k', 'motherf**ker', 'c**ksucker'). There is also use of the derogatory racist terms 'wop' and 'n****r', including a long dialogue scene in which one man goads another by repeatedly telling him that the "n****r gene" is in his bloodline. There are also some strong verbal sex references and a strong sex scene. Drug use includes cocaine being chopped and snorted and several scenes in which characters smoke joints and bongs.
