Sex & Nudity

Violence & Gore
-
- There's little to no violence in the first half of this film and most of it occurs near the end. And while it is pretty intense and a little disturbing, it's not graphic at all (there's not even a drop of blood)
- A man starts a ruckus in a pizza parlor and gets forced out.
- Two young men are seen scuffling briefly in a pizza parlor storage room
- A boy is almost run over by a car but is pushed out of the way by an old man.
Profanity
-
- 240 uses of "fuck", other strong language and racial epithets (including one montage) throughout. "Nigger" is used a lot and at times in a racist context.
Alcohol, Drugs & Smoking
-
- Some scenes of smoking and people drinking beer
Frightening & Intense Scenes
-
- Many scenes depict racial tensions between different ethnic groups in Brooklyn, and racial slurs for almost every group are used.
- Not frightening just some intense themes such as racism which takes the main plot point.
- All the major violence happens towards the end of the film, the films first half is more comedic and light in tone, while the second is more intense.
Spoilers
Violence & Gore
- A riot breaks out when a man bashes another man's stereo in a pizza parlor with a baseball bat, the man with the bat is then forced out of his shop, people trash and torch the restaurant, a cop asphyxiates a man with a nightstick and other related pandemonium breaks out into the streets, ending with the pizza parlor burning to the ground.
Frightening & Intense Scenes
- Radio Raheems death at the end of the film is extremely intensely and emotional, even more so because it is police brutality that kills him after all he did wrong was annoy someone by playing music.
- The killing of a man by police officers and the riot which follows afterwards at the end of the film is intense and disturbing.
