Sex & Nudity

  • Men leer at a woman undressing down to her bikini.
  • Cinemax content advisory for the movie: rated R for strong sexual content (SSC), nudity (N), graphic violence (GV) and graphic language (GL)
  • A woman in a thong dances at a strip joint for several seconds (breasts briefly seen). Another one in a thong seductively goes to give a main character a lap dance (breasts and nipple visible for a few seconds), he turns her down.
  • A man dances with a scantily-clad woman working at a strip joint for several seconds. He briefly touches her buttocks and breasts/waist. Her nipples are visible through her sheer top. This is the final edit. Theres an extended version of this scene on the predvd or workprint that was cut that changes the situation to 2 women in thongs dancing suggestively with each other.

Violence & Gore

  • Various cartel members, guards, and gangsters are shot with little blood, although still somewhat violently.
  • Early in the film police road a club where drug cartel leader and many armed guards are. Many of the guards and other people are shot with some blood spray visible.
  • A man and woman are shot at in their bed at night, but the man shoots back and kills at of the attackers. The man and woman are unjust with some blood visible.
  • Two dead men are found after being left a few days. One has his throat cut and the other has words carved in his back.
  • During a drug deal gone bad, there is an explosion and a shootout, where many people are shot and killed, including women and police.
  • A protagonist extensively and bloodily beats a man's face after the latter insults his wife (as well as women in general).
  • Not as severe as other movies with the label of "strong graphic violence", but some of the shootings can still be intense.

Profanity

  • Damn is said five times.
  • Hell is said.
  • Bitch is said by a child. 'Son of a bitch' is said.
  • Ass and asshole are said 9 times
  • Religious exclamations at least twice.
  • 21 of 'shit'.
  • 2 of 'cocksucker'.
  • Nigga is said 2 times
  • Not for kids. This movie is really an NC-17 movie, don't be fooled by the R-rating, even if it is hard R, it still pushes the boundaries. This movie almost got an NC-17, and only minor edits stopped it from happening.
