VIOLENCE/GORE 8 - A riot in the city results in explosions and fires, and people rioting, vandalizing and shooting each other. People are shown riddled with gunshots, screaming and dying, and some fall to their deaths. Two men are electrocuted. One man is killed by a knife (we see the bloody knife exit his torso). Many fight scenes with hits, kicks, punches and gunfire. A robot pulls a man's arms off (we only see a burst of blood). Some men are shown deformed by scars and disabilities. We see a bloody corpse roasting over a fire.
LANGUAGE 5 - One F-word, one scatological reference and a handful of milder obscenities.
DISCUSSION TOPICS - Anarchy vs. social order, genetic engineering, imprisonment.
MESSAGE - Social order will only be ensured via strong law enforcement.
CAVEATS
Be aware that while we do our best to avoid spoilers it is impossible to disguise all details and some may reveal crucial plot elements.
We've gone through several editorial changes since we started covering films in 1992 and older reviews are not as complete & accurate as recent ones; we plan to revisit and correct older reviews as resources and time permits.
Our ratings and reviews are based on the theatrically-released versions of films; on video there are often Unrated, Special, Director's Cut or Extended versions, (usually accurately labelled but sometimes mislabeled) released that contain additional content, which we did not review.
