Parents' Guide to Fuze

Parents need to know that Fuze is a violent action thriller involving an unexploded World War II bomb in London and a large-scale heist, starring Aaron Taylor-Johnson, Theo James, and Gugu Mbatha-Raw. The film is intense, with a race-against-the-clock narrative and frequent violence. There is a massive explosion, shoot-outs, and people are killed with gunshot wounds visible on-screen. Language is very strong, with multiple uses of "c--t," "d--khead," and variants of "f--k." The film offers little in the way of positive themes, though characters display immense courage, fighting for their nation in warfare and putting themselves in serious danger. Police Chief Zuzana Greenfield is a diligent and respectable figure who cares deeply about public safety and must make life-or-death decisions in seconds. But other characters double-cross and resort to violence for financial gains. The cast is broadly diverse, including a family of Afghani immigrants and a man in a wheelchair who works in law enforcement. Characters on both sides of the law drink shots to mark celebratory moments, and one character is seen smoking a cigarette.
