-
- In one scene you could see bloody gun shots on a man. There is a shirt on him so you don't see the injury.
- A man is shot 4 times very quickly in the chest, the blood is seen and after we see him laying on the ground In a pool of blood.
- A narration implies that rape is an occurrence for Andy. One scene involves the same men who usually terrorize him punching and kicking him against the ground and says he will put his penis in Andy's mouth to which Andy replies they shouldn't do that. Non graphic.
- A man hits two others in the face with a film roll. He is then punched twice in the chest and once across the jaw (a dot of blood on his mouth). Shortly after, he is kicked four times in the stomach and hit across the face twice (seen from a distance). We then hear he spent a month in the infirmary.
- A man is hit five times and kicked once. He tries to crawl away, but is dragged offscreen and is implied to be still beaten up. He is then seen injured and bruised in a wheelchair for a few seconds and we hear he spent the rest of his life in a hospital. Not for kids.

-
- The movie can be sometimes harsh and dark in tone.
- Prisoners torment and verbally attack new people who've just arrived, their reactions can be a bit difficult to watch as they scream and cry.
- The beatings may be intense to many. There are moments of moderate threat when characters are threatened (normally by guards).
- The prison rape elements could be distressing but, it is never shown just vaguely implied and briefly referenced.

Frightening & Intense Scenes
- A man is splashed with sewage, then crawls through the sewer pipe. The narration states that the sewage is excrement.
- There is rape also implied and prison bullying.
- Brooks death is very emotional and hard to watch.
- The prison warden commits suicide near the end of the film by firing a gun while it's facing his chin. The bloody aftermath is shown when the police finally come in. It's one of the darkest scenes in this film.
- Two important characters commit suicide; a main character contemplates suicide. Very intense.
- There is a scene where an old man commits suicide from hanging himself this scene is built up with an emotional monologue ( speech ) this scene is more meant to be sad and emotional talking about when men are institutionalised, however audiences might not like this as we see him after he is hanged still in the rope dead .
- Brooks death is one of the saddest moments in cinema.
