Hollywood Movies | Action | Crime | Thriller
| nudity | There's one scene where a man and lady are in bed; the way they are positioned looks like they were having sex but they are interrupted because the good guys are hiding from the bad guys and need them to be quiet. Nothing explicit is revealed either. |
| violence | Several shootings result in blood sometimes very much. The movie has several face off scenes with gun and fist fights. Early in the movie, a bad guy holds cop hostage at gunpoint and orders the other officers to put their guns down. When they don't he expertly fires a warning shot by the cop's head. We see a bit of blood on the guy's head. Another guy manages to break it up with some shooting and punching. There's a vault heist that results in at least one unexpected death. Whilst running from the vault heist the bad guys end up in an Indian museum. Greed takes over, and one of them steals a thick arrow. This then results in yet another unexpected death shooting. There's a very long car and police chase. At one point the chase takes place on the sidewalk for a few blocks, smashing and knocking over vendor stands. The chase then has a car driving through an entire corporate office through one window and out the other taking out desks, phones, computers, printers, and other office machines. A guy gets shot in the back (later seen very bloody). Another guy rescues him and gets him back to health. We see the bloody wound and clothes several times. A guy has what looks like a knife put into his ear (but just barely and not at all fatally) to keep quiet. Later, there's a two on two fist fight, more bad guys come with guns. There are several other fist and gun fights that take place on the street, in a restaurant, and even lady's hair salon. Lots of people get shot (some bloody but brief). Lots of people get punched, kicked, and slammed up against the wall. A big old guy is taken hostage forced to be held captive into a car trunk. During the hair salon shoot out none of the ladies are badly hurt. One though comes close as bullets graze her hair pins and curlers. Late in the film a lady is shot, quite bloody and disturbing but not a long scene. There's a home invasion that results in at least two deaths. An Indian guy goes a bit mental in a department store and smashes open a glass case. This results in a bloody fist; while the scene lasts awhile the camera angle just gives us a gist of the injury. The final fight results in several people getting killed or at least shot. One guy gets shot with a very thick heavy arrow. This results in a huge amount of blood. The scene lasts a bit but because it is a night scene, it is not as gory looking. Overall there's a ton of action violence, which results in a heavy but not extreme amount of blood. |
| profanity | About 36 uses of the word fuck in one fashion or another. Shit, ass, damn, son of a bitch, bastard, hell, and some religious profanity are used numerous times as well (some of each might come close to 36 but not quite) Overall the movie is pretty foul mouthed but compared to others it's really tame. |
| alcohol | Moderate Smoking and drinking thru/o. There's a scene where guys go to purchase drugs, but it's just to get to the bad guys. |
| frightening | Overall this is not a tame movie if one is disturbed by action violence. There are several fights and even tough physical stunts like a guy climbing a moving train and then having to lay down low as it goes into a tunnel. The guy that got shot has to do high physical stunts to which results falling on and getting kicked in his bullet wound a few times each. MESSAGE: If one is going to work undercover, (s)he must be very well prepared for those both sides including what happens when his/her cover is blown. |
