Shot documentary-style, this film follows the daily grind of two young police officers in LA who are partners and friends, and what happens when they meet criminal forces greater than themselves.
nudity | A couple kiss as they go to a bed, sex is implied. They are seen in bed afterwards, no nudity. Two women share an extended kiss. A man is seen filming them. Plenty of sexual references, several of them are graphic. |
violence | A man is shot once in the hand. He groans and a bit of blood is seen. A man is shot in the chest. We see blood coming out from under his shirt and from his mouth. A man is shot several times with automatic weapons, he winces and blood briefly sprays. Several cartel members are shot and killed, bloodless. Two cops discover a room with decapitated heads and various other body parts. No blood or graphic details shown. Only talked about A long, but bloodless, tussle. |
profanity | 76 uses of the f-word and scads of other obscenities, vulgarities, and epithets, in English and Spanish. |
alcohol | Drug cartels are mentioned many times as there is a main plotline involving them. A woman lights up a joint in front of a cop, and blows smoke in her face. |
frightening | Infrequent, but rather intense confrontations between criminals and police, especially when both sides have weapons. During an investigation of a house two cops find a gated room containing about 15 people and children (presumably illegal immigrants) locked inside, cramped. |
