A woman pushes her fingers into people’s heads in several scenes and we see her fingers moving under their flesh and eyes and sometimes sticking out through their nostrils (they are seemingly unharmed afterward); one man’s head is twisted and his neck is snapped, and another man is dragged down a flight of stairs. A woman waves her hand in the air and a superhero is stripped of his suit and his skin leaving bloody bones to collapse in a pile on the ground. Two men fight against many others with slashing, stabbing, limb-lopping and throwing, shooting with blood spray and splatter; the fight continues inside a bus and the windows are splattered with blood.

 Two men fight inside a car stabbing each other and slamming each other; one is thrown through the windshield shattering it, one is thrown through the roof of the car and lands hard on the ground, one bends the other’s arm unnaturally snapping it at the elbow, and we later see them both with bloody wounds with one wrapped like a mummy with a seatbelt. A man stabs another man in the chest and crotch several times and lifts him off the ground slamming him against his knee (we see blood spurt but he does not appear injured); the two continue fighting and one shoots the other numerous times (the bullets pop out of the wounds and onto the ground and he spits one bullet out of his mouth).

A man zaps two men with what looks like a cattle prod and they disappear and land in another place. A man throws a playing card that glows and blows a whiskey bottle out of another man’s hand.

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.
