Sex & Nudity

  • There is sexual dialogue/references throughout most of the movie
  • None - some revealing outfits in the club scene & suggestive body language

Violence & Gore

  • A man punches another man in the face repeatedly (he has a bloody, bruised and swollen face) and the man doing the beating has a very bloody hand.
  • We hear a dog being beaten (thuds, yelping and whimpering) and see the dog lying on the ground with bloody wounds. Graphic.
  • A man is beaten up by two men who slam his head into a desk, kick and punch him. Graphic.
  • A man puts an injured dog in the trunk of his car and is bitten on the neck while doing so (we see a trickle of blood on the man's neck).

Profanity

  • Slurs for African Americans, Italians, Polish, Hispanics, Jews, Indians, and homosexuals are heard throughout the movie.
  • 110 F-words, 14 sexual references, 35 scatological terms, 29 anatomical terms, 16 mild obscenities, 1 derogatory term for Hispanic-Americans.

Alcohol, Drugs & Smoking

  • The main character is a drug dealer, and cops find drugs hidden in his house--but no illegal drug use is shown. There is a lot of drug talk. Lots and lots of drinking, to varying degrees of dunkenness. A group of older men give a 17-year-old alcohol, and we hear that she took ecstasy (e). Many characters smoke a lot.

Frightening & Intense Scenes

  • The ending is extremely emotional especially when the main character is beaten up by his friend after asking him to do it (the main character was afraid of being raped in prison).
