Sex, rape, addictions and violence

Lots of explicit and sexual content. Violence. There is a rape scene and blatant sexualisation of women- but that's a given as its from 1999 and it's the main storyline of the movie. Overall enjoyable and the psychology is fun to piece together.

Violent murder mystery has sex, smoking and swearing. It has flaws but is still very interesting.

This is a great but violent murder mystery with a lot of sex. there is a lot of swearing like the f-word, P*ssy, c*m, ect. the opening scene starts of with man and woman having sex, the naked woman pulls out an ice pick and stabs her sex partner repeatedly in the torso, chest, shoulder, and nose as he screams in pain with blood splatters and wounds on his chest as blood splatters on the woman's torso and breast. and we see her butt while she is doing it. The cops and police scan the mans dead body and we see his penis as they do it. Blood is all over the sheets along with dried up sperm as the police report. a scene at a night club where woman are dancing topless, 4 sex scenes are in the movie including one where it could be called a rape scene. a woman is shot dead, a man is found dead in his car with with a bullet wound in his head, a man is stabbed in the neck with an ice pick, he is founds dying on the floor lying in a huge puddle of blood. photos of children with their throats cut, and a car crash. more nude with female breast, a mans butt, a man buries his face in a woman's legs as they are having sex. a very famous scene of a woman sitting down in a skirt uncrossing her legs as we see her vagina for 2 seconds. there is tones of smoking, and a main character is drunk in a scene. the movie is very dark and interesting. it has flaws , but the amount of suspense makes up for it. it is well done and none of the nudity is very close up, and most teens older than 14-15 can handle it.

Mediocre thriller is DEFINITELY not for kids

I always scoff when people compare a film that has a little nudity to p***. This is the only exception. It’s not as bad as you might think (it’s still pretty bad though) as it’s just a lot of sex and some violence. I am a little shocked how Common Sense Media rated this 17+ but rated films such as Zodiac and Unforgiven 18+. I don’t quite understand that. Anyway, it’s a sleazy, mediocre thriller that is certainly not for younger teens.
