  • Bare-breasted women dance in a club.
  • A man runs through a hospital wearing a hospital gown and his bare buttocks are visible periodically.

  • Two women kiss in a photo, one has a hand on the other's clothed breast and the other is lifting the other's skirt (her bare crotch is visible).
  • A man lies on a massage table and two topless women (their bare breasts are visible) massage him (one kneels on his back and the other is next to him).

  • A man gropes his girlfriend in a public market, asks her to have sex with him, grabs her and pulls her to the ground, rips her dress (her bare breast is briefly seen), and climbs on top of her -- she fights him briefly but then consents and they kiss; she then stands against a newspaper vending machine, he pulls his pants down (we see his bare buttock from the side), and thrusts from behind her (she moans, and he yells), and people standing around them watch and cheer. The scene is explicit.
  • A woman performs oral sex on a man (she moves down to his crotch off screen and he moans).

Violence & Gore

  • A man throws another man off a roof (we see the body falling past a window).

  • A man shoots a man in the chest several times (we see bloody chest wounds.
  • A man on a fire escape is shot, he falls to the ground with a thud (nearly landing on a woman) and we see some blood on his chest.
  • There's a long and intense car chase, in which several men shoot guns at Chev and his girlfriend as they drive. Windows are shot out, and there's lots of chaos. Chev shoots a tire and the car violently crashes into the back of a parked car and flips over. Chev continues firing and another car crashes into a fence. He walks up to the crashed car and shoots the driver dead, offscreen.
  • We see a bird's heart beating very rapidly.
  • A man with a cleaver cuts a man's hand off (the hand that's holding a gun, and we see a bloody stump and blood sprays). They fight, and another man hits one of the men in the head with a rolling pin, and the other man picks up the severed hand holding the gun and shoots the other man in the head (blood sprays in the air, on a wall and on another man).
  • A man shoots a man in the head, many other men open fire, and one man uses a dead man as a shield (we see blood spurt every time the body is struck).

  • We see a human heart (presumably a man's) beating slowly in a few scenes.
