What parents need to know
Parents need to know that the characters in this action-packed racing thriller drive very fast and sometimes recklessly. Some use their cars aggressively against their competitors, leading to potentially scary moments. Other tense and/or violent scenes include physical attacks (a man is hit on the head with a wrench, etc.) and a confrontation between a man and his frightened wife. Some characters are compelled purely by greed, and many are cut-throat in their attempts to win. Meanwhile, good characters are asked to do bad things as part of the competition.
Violence:
Lots of harsh driving, including car crashes and bumping other cars on purpose. Several guns; in one scary scene, a guy hunts a woman with a gun, and later there's a tense standoff between brothers, with one holding a gun on the other. A good character is asked to murder someone to stay in the game.
Sex:
Boyfriend eyes his girlfriend's rear end salaciously as she bends over. Some revealing outfits.
Language:
Some tough talking, including "ass," "damn," and "hell."
Consumerism:
Characters must check their cell phones for race updates, and the Nokia brand is always visible.
Drinking, drugs, & smoking:
Not applicable.
