Violence & Gore

  • During a home robbery, four masked men tie a woman and a teen girl to chairs. The teen girl stabs one of the attackers and the woman throws a pan of boiling water onto the same mans face. The attackers then shoot the woman and teen girl off-screen. Moderately intense.
  • There is a very long shootout in the house at the end of the film. One man is shot with some blood shown around the wound, another man is shot several times causing him to fall off of a balcony onto the ground, (Implied death) and another man is shot several times with a semi-automatic gun. We see several bullet holes in his jacket but the wounds are not visible.
  • A man is seen under a car, the car is being held up by a jack. He asks if the other man is going to kill him. The other man than says "no but the jack will" The car then lands on top of the man and we see his head open and his brains destroyed. This lasts a few seconds but still is one of the most graphic en gory moments of the movie.
