Parents' Guide to Aftermath

Parents need to know that Aftermath (2024) is an American action-adventure movie about a hostage situation on a large bridge. One ex-soldier (Dylan Sprouse) might have the skillset to save everyone. There's a fair amount of violence, gun violence, killing, threat, and peril. Characters get shot in the head point-blank, and shot in the body, shoulder, arm, and leg. Characters fight and get punched, kicked, stabbed, slashed, cut, choked, and set on fire. Knives slash necks, chains choke-kill assailants, and a bazooka blast explodes a helicopter with people in it. A truck explodes while falling on top of a character, killing the character. A character holds hostage hundreds of people on a bridge and threatens to blow them all up with bombs placed under the bridge. A character tells a story of trying to save a girl from a forced marriage because the man was evil and abusive, but before he could get the girl to safety, she was shot right in front of him. There's no sexual content except for a teen girl telling her older brother that her breasts get her much more attention than makeup. Frequent strong language throughout includes "f--k," "f--king," "motherf----r," "s--t," "ass," "a--hole," "bitch," "d--k," "pr--k," "p---y," "bastard," "damn," "douche," and "hell" and exclamatory use of "Jesus Christ!"
