Two guys are shown in fist-fights/wrestling a couple of times.A man is found dead (committed suicide). We see his wrists slit and a lot of blood on the floor.A woman is stabbed in the back by a buzzing scalpel (unseen, camera was on her face). The wound is not shown, just some blood on her clothing and hands.A man is slashed across the stomach with a buzzing scalpel and it bleeds, the wound is not shown clearly, but his clothing and hands show blood.A man has his legs crushed and it bleeds under water/liquid. This scene is fairly painful to watch.A man with heavy burns has the skin torn off his arm, exposing muscles and tendons.The violence is pretty much PG-13. It was the language that caused the R rating.
standard F-words. Plus milder language.
Several people are shown dying by being burnt by the sun, one freezes and one suffocates/freezes in space. Another is murdered and there is a suicide. There are also fires and explosions, and a scary mad man. All scenes showing the mad man are blurry/disorienting and fairly disturbing.The film is extremely tense throughout.Note: In Australia the MA rating is due to the short video in the special features called Dad's Dead. Sunshine (the main feature) is actulley rated M.
