violence
Scenes of gunfire occasionally result in moderate bloody detail. After a man is pushed into a burning cellar we hear screams from off screen followed by brief sight of a hand with moderate burn wounds reaching out from the flames. In another scene a man shoots a sewer rat, resulting in a brief close up of a splatter of blood, but there is no on-screen evidence of real animal cruelty.
language
There are uses of the rude ‘V-sign’ and ‘bras d'honneur’ gestures. Mild bad language includes ‘shit’, ‘son of a bitch’, ‘bloody’, ‘ass’, ‘bastard’, ‘hell’ and ‘goddamn’.
flashing/flickering lights
This work contains flashing images which may affect viewers who are susceptible to photosensitive epilepsy.
additional issues
There are mild scenes of threat, including one in which the heroes must escape a collapsing temple and another in which a woman is briefly kidnapped by a group of henchmen. There are infrequent mild sex references, such as a passing reference to prostitution. An Iraqi man accuses white characters of assuming that he is an ignorant ‘barbarian’ due to his ethnicity and dress. Comic scenes show the hero bribing an alcoholic character with spirits in order to ensure his cooperation.
