Since the beliefs that parents want to instill in their children can vary greatly, we ask that instead of adding your personal opinions about what is right or wrong in a film, that you instead use this feature to help parents make informed viewing decisions by describing the facts of relevant scenes in the title for each one of the different categories: Sex and Nudity, Violence and Gore, Profanity, Alcohol/Drugs/Smoking, and Frightening/Intense Scenes.

Sex & Nudity

Mild, infrequent nudity.

There's a scene where a guy is pushed down. He pulls himself up by grabbing a lady's chest and is then portrayed like he's groping her chest.

Violence & Gore

Frequent strong (and sometimes bloody) violence (Shootings, fighting, stabbing)

A dead body is discovered by a young boy (the body has a little dried blood on it's shirt)

Verna punches Tom and Tom throws something at Verna but misses

Tom hits one of Caspers goons with a chair, he walks out and gets three other guys who's about two beat the crap out of Tom but the police stops them, later we see the police beating up the hoodlums

We hear some struggling and the next thing we see is a bloody body of Leo's bodyguard

Leo shoots a hitman in the head, he jumps from the window and shoots another hitman many times (bloody)and finally he shoots two people dead in a car ( the car's on fire and no one jumps out)

Leo delivers many punches to Tom and banish him

Tom is roughed up by Leo's men

In two seperate scenes we see the cops damaging first Caspers then Leos nightclub

Caspers men punches and kicks Bernie

A man is dragged,kicking and screaming, to his execution in the forest though he is spared.

The Dane shoots and kills Vernas bodyguards (with resultant blood)

Tom are beaten up by some men sent by his bookie

The cops blows up a bar (presumably killing an unknown number of people inside) plus a survior is shot dead by the police, another two survivors then open fire on the police killing the cop who shot the first survivor and an extreme amount of gunfire is exchanged

Tom grabs his gun and tries to ambush Bernie but Bernie surprises him and kicks him in the gut and punches him

Tom pukes

One of Caspers men finds a badly rotten body

The Dane grabs Tom in a chokehold but Casper hits The Dane with a firepoker (he's very bloody afterwards) and thereafter kills him with one shot to the head

We see the body of Johnny Casper (with a bloody mouth)

Tom shoots Bernie in the head killing him

Profanity

Infrequent, moderate language

The Damn and Goddamn phrase are used a bunch of times. Queer is used once or twice. Other than that its pretty tame (as there are very little, if in fact any F-words or S-words)

The main character smokes and drinks a lot.

An Irish gangster movie set in Prohibition; there's bound to be and is drinking at plenty of speakeasies.

There's lots of fights and killings. Some of the scenes are really tense go on for a long time like; a guy pleading to be let go as he's about to be shot and another scene has a guy strangling another guy to death telling him he's going to send him to a deep dark place and have a lot of fun doing it.
