nudity | Occasional strong sexual discussion and descriptions. Some sexual scenes on a TV in the background. One scene of implied rape. An intoxicated character pushes a woman around and violently forces her to the floor. The scene ends here. It is unexpected and casts a dark tone. |
violence | Violent threats made to other characters, some appearing comedic as part of the cockney personality. A torture victim is suspended upside down from a ceiling. He is punched several times, and is electrocuted via electrodes attached to his nipples. Brutal fistfights throughout, some containing the use of hammers and other tools, seeing the impact. Bloody results. There is a fight between 2 main characters, pushing around a room, hitting each other hard and knocking over tables and other items. Again with bloody results. There is a fatal shooting in a bar. A man walks purposefully into the bar, gun in hand. It was revealed beforehand that he was intending on killing another man. He walks straight up to the man and shoots him in the head. Blood sprays all over the wall behind him and appears on his face. He freezes for a moment, still smiling and then collapses dead. The most brutal scene of violence in the film is near the end, where a character is stabbed what seems like 15-20 times very quickly, all over his body, with the majority of it in full, close view. Very bloody, intense and unsettling. Not for the faint-hearted. A man is punched in the nose for stealing. Nothing graphic. A man is hung up by his feet with electrodes attached his nipples. He is beaten and electrocuted several times. A man is hit by a car. There is a barroom brawl involving hammers and brass knuckles. Lots of violence, not all that bloody. An inmate is beaten by police. Bloody results |
profanity | About 171 uses of the word "Fuck". Around 8 Uses of the word "Cunt". Other English profanity is used (Wanker, Twat, Etc) |
alcohol | Almost constant smoking from most characters. General beer/spirits drinking. One character takes prescription pills often. |
frightening | Some intense confrontations between characters. One character appears rather unhinged and can be quite aggressive and threatening. Ron may scare some viewers. The implied rape scene and stabbing scene. See Violence section. |
