 A man propositions a man he thinks is coming to meet him for a pre-arranged date, and he gives him his suggestive online handle.

 A man chases a man and a woman, they get into a car and speed away, he jumps on the top of the car, the driver shoots a gun through the roof toward him, and he falls off. A man falls off a terrace, crashes onto the hood of a car, rolls off and drives away.
 People shoot back and forth at each other in a building, a floor-waxing machine slams into one gunman knocking him down, and another man slips on fresh wax twice, slams onto the floor and then through a plate glass window. A man and a woman are shot at as they run away and one of them shoots back.

A man jumps out of bed in a panic when he sees a dead man in bed next to him; he then steps on broken glass twice and has a bloody spot on his head.
 A man flashes back to combat situations where there is gunfire, there are explosions, and loud helicopters in several scenes.

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.
