Parent Guide

Some men are seen beating up another person from a distance.

Cole fights with the orderlies when they find him during his escape. He kicks one in the gut and hits another in the face. They finally subdue and tranquilize him. We later hear that a security guard received a skull fracture during the fight.

A man opens the truck of a car and a woman inside kicks him in the face, then punches him, knocking him down. She then jumps on him and begins pummeling him. A small amount of blood is shown on his face, but he is not seriously injured.

A bloody bullet hole is seen in a man's leg as he sits in a car.

A woman removes a bullet from a man's leg, and she bandages the wound. Lots of blood is seen on the bullet, and a bandage.

A man has a recurring nightmare about a shooting in an airport. This is seen several times throughout the film, but it's flashy and very quick, and it's hard to tell what's happening exactly.

A man punches another man in an airport, and then chases a third man while holding a gun. He attempts to shoot the man, but airport security guards draw guns and open fire on him, and he's shot several times, and blood is seen graphically spurting from his chest once. A woman tries to staunch the bleeding, and blood is seen flowing from one of the wounds.

Cole holds three people at gunpoint and later they are seen tied up.

A man eats a live spider, the scene not exceedingly disturbing.

R violence type: blood, brutal and graphic.

A man punches Kathryn in the face (we see her bloody nose in a few scenes). Cole grabs a telephone and repeatedly smashes her attacker in the face and head with it.

A brutal fight in which Cole fights two other men who attack him and Kathryn. He is punched, and she is hit and thrown to the ground. Cole brutally beats both of them, and a bloody open wound is seen on one of the attacker's heads, and it's later said that he killed one of them.

A man cuts out teeth from his own mouth (offscreen), and we see blood drip from his mouth, as well as the bloody tooth and a lot of blood in his hand.

There's a particularly intense World War I battle that is shown. Explosions and gunshots are heard. A man falls to the ground facing the camera, his face covered in blood. Another man gets shot and he is shown in a stretcher, covered in blood. Another man gets shot in the leg.
