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

We see closeups of Tina's nude breasts, legs and thighs as Mookie rubs ice on them

Some sexual dialogue

Violence & Gore

A man starts a ruckus in a pizza parlor and gets forced out

A boy is almost run over by a car but is pushed out of the way by an old man

A riot breaks out when a man bashes another man's stereo in a pizza parlor with a baseball bat, the man with the bat is then forced out of his shop, people trash and torch the restaurant, a cop asphyxiates a man with a nightstick and other related pandemonium breaks out into the streets, ending with the pizza parlor burning to the ground.

Profanity

240 uses of "fuck", other strong language and racial epithets (including one montage) throughout. The N-word is used an almost uncountable number of times.

Some scenes of smoking and people drinking beer

The riot at the end of the film is very intense, disturbing and heart-wrenching
