Since the beliefs that parents want to instill in their children can vary greatly, we ask that instead of adding your personal opinions about what is right or wrong in a film, that you instead use this feature to help parents make informed viewing decisions by describing the facts of relevant scenes in the title for each one of the different categories: Sex and Nudity, Violence and Gore, Profanity, Alcohol/Drugs/Smoking, and Frightening/Intense Scenes.

Sex & Nudity

A pair of bank robbers are said to be homosexual.

A man mentions someone he knows getting a sex change but desperately needing the money several times.

Violence & Gore

One man is shot in the head. No blood is shown spraying but we see a bloody bullet hole.

People are threatened at gunpoint by Bank Robbers.

Profanity

Several instances of the F word, among others.

Some smoking.

A woman is forced to smoke in one scene.

Though the movie takes place in one building for the most part, the film is very intense. There is not one calm moment.
