violence

There are numerous scenes of strong violence, often taking places during underground 'fight club' scenes. These include a man being beaten and repeatedly punched in the face, with close up sight of his bloody injuries, and another man's head being bashed heavily onto the floor. Scalding acid is pressed onto a man's hand as a test of strength and there is a focus on his pain as his skin burns and blisters.

threat and horror

A man is dragged into toilet, tied up and gagged by men in ski masks who pull down his trousers and threaten to castrate him with a large knife. Sequences also include bomb and gun threat. A man deliberately stops driving a car and allows it to crash into oncoming traffic.

language

Use of strong language ('motherf**ker', 'f**k') is accompanied by moderate ('bitch', 'cock') and milder terms such as 'tits', 'son of a bitch', 'piss', 'shit', 'crap', 'Jesus', 'Christ', 'God' and 'screw'.

sex

There are occasional sequences of strong sex that feature breast and buttock nudity, accompanied by prolonged sounds of sexual moaning. Strong visual and verbal sex references are prevalent throughout, such as brief sight of pornographic images and sex toys. A man inserts pornographic sexual images into cinema screenings viewed by families.

drugs

Scenes include references to steroid and prescription drug misuse.

sexual violence and sexual threat

There are undetailed brief references to incest and molestation. A woman states she had sex in 'grade school'.

suicide and self-harm

A man phones the police after a woman tells him that she has attempted to take her own life.

suicide and self-harm

It is implied that a man is compelled to hurt himself through burns and blows.

injury detail

Men are brutally beaten, resulting in bloody injuries and substantial bruising to their faces and bodies. After being shot in the head, there is gory sight of the large bullet wound on the back of a man's skull and parts of his brain matter falling to the floor. A man shoots himself through the cheek leading to blood pouring from the wound and down his neck. The skin on a man's hand is seen blistered and melted away after being burnt with a chemical substance.

nudity

Scenes include brief sexualised breast, penis and buttock nudity.

theme

Cancer sufferers emotionally describe the impact of the illness on them at support group meetings. References are made to mental health issues and other diseases.

violence

There are some strong moments of violence during the underground 'fight club' scenes. These include a man being beaten and repeatedly punched in the face, with close up sight of his bloody injuries, and a man's head being bashed heavily onto the floor. Elsewhere in the film, parts of a dead man's brain are seen falling onto the ground after his hat is removed, and another man is seen with the back of his head missing after apparently being shot.

additional issues: The film also contains some strong language ('f**k'), as well as various uses of milder terms such as 'bitch' and 'cock'. There are some sexual images, including pictures of a penis and of a man kissing a woman's breast. A sex scene includes plenty of loud sexual noises and bare breasts and buttocks. There is also an image of a vibrator and references to pornography.
