Sex & Nudity

  • A man kisses a woman
  • The cover of a DVD held up by a character clearly shows a topless woman. It is brief and not very large on the screen, but it is there and visible.
  • Two men come closer to each other and are implied to kiss, but the scene ends before anything happens.
  • A man and a woman lie next to each other in bed, a sheet covering their bodies.
  • References to a character seeming to be homosexual are repeatedly made.
  • A man is seen naked from the waist down while a doctor holds his genitalia; the camera only shows the side of his buttocks.
  • A man shows someone a collection of what appears to be pornographic videos and magazines. He describes them, but not explicitly.

Violence & Gore

  • In a flashback, a man shoots himself in the mouth. He is only seen lying on the floor with some blood next to him, however.
  • A prisoner is chained to a wall in an upright position and is repeatedly struck with some sort of pipe. The man is heard groaning, but the actual blows are never seen on screen.
  • A man has the needle of a syringe violently jabbed into his neck, which stops him from moving. He later awakens, trapped in a bonfire and with a bleeding wound on his head.
  • A man appears to headbutt another man and the victim is later seen with a bleeding nose. However, this scene is also shot in a way that is mostly amusing.
  • A man tries to throttle another man on two occasions, but the scenes are shot in a way that is mostly amusing.
  • A corpse is masked and dressed up to resemble someone else, with fake blood squirted on its face.

Profanity

  • 19 religious exclamations are uttered, along with one scatological and three anatomical terms, two vulgar insults, six mild obscenities (the likes of "bloody"), and a couple of mild insults, for example "idiot". An f-word is implied in one scene.
  • A man holds up his middle finger and, although he doesn't actually insult anyone by doing so, it is connected to the scene directly before it.

Alcohol, Drugs & Smoking

Frightening & Intense Scenes

  • In a forest, a man is hunted by what seems to be a military organisation and is eventually caught, which leads to him being tortured later on.
  • Two girls and one elderly woman abruptly start to scream on different occasions.
  • A skeleton dressed in a suit is seen.

Spoilers

Violence & Gore

  • A man jumps off a rooftop, but lands safely on a giant airbag. Soon after, fake blood is applied to his head and the ground next to him, so he can pose as a corpse.

Frightening & Intense Scenes

  • A man is trapped in a bonfire and is rescued from the flames in the last moment. The footage of this is later watched by another man.
  • The two main characters discover a tube car with explosives hidden in it. As the countdown for the bomb has already started, they manage to turn the device off, however.
