The Lovely Bones

A character is attacked and beaten with fists and a baseball bat.
disturbing images
Scenes show the murderer watching and pusuing his victim. He lures her into an underground den. A scene shows the murderer cleaning up after his crime. This contains images of muddy clothing and a sink with traces of blood, as well as a shot of the razor used as the murder weapon. There are images of the bodies of the killer's previous victims and, although tonally disturbing, the injury detail is relatively discreet. A scene shows the killer placing a sack containing Susie's body inside a large safe.
theme
The film is about a girl who was murdered. There are references to her murder and also to the history of her murderer and his previous similar crimes.
There is infrequent strong language ('f**k'). Other language in the film includes uses of 'moron', 'crap', ''jerk off' and 'piss off'.
