Violence
The film frequently depicts gunfights, explosions, stabbings, and hand-to-hand combat, but does not focus on the resulting injuries or deaths. Two men have their throats slit with a machete, showing a small amount of blood splatter. While there is a lot of violence the camera does not linger on the entry wounds or deaths.
Some of the more challenging scenes are:
Two men are shot in the head when they are handcuffed, the impact of the shots is shown then the camera moves away from the bodies.
Two men beat up a woman who is handcuffed, she is punched repeatedly, and her injuries are clearly shown.
A man pulls the pin from a grenade and then drops it, after the explosion we see blood splatter and the legs of the man who was killed then the shot moves away.
Offensive language
Words such as “f**k” “motherf**ker” “god**n” “sh*t” and an ethnic slur (used in the United States to describe Hispanic and Latino Americans) are spoken.
Content may disturb
