One Battle After Another: parents' guide

Bombings, shootouts and crashes; people are shot in the head with blood spray, a man is gassed to death and immigrant kids are caged. A teen is grabbed by the neck and later kills a man. Sexual violence: a captive is humiliated at gunpoint, an officer trades a woman's release for sex, and rape is discussed.

Pervasive: well over 100 f-words by two separate counts, 25-plus s-words, 'motherf' variations, other crude anatomical terms, and racial slurs aimed at Latino, Black and Indigenous characters.

Several hurried sex scenes, partly shown with clothes on, and a hotel scene suggesting a gun used sexually. A woman forces a captive officer to become aroused, visible through his pants, and a character reaches down to masturbate. Crude sex talk; no explicit nudity reported.

The hero is a longtime heavy user who smokes marijuana and drinks throughout, jokes about drunk driving and drinks beer while riding with a driver who's also drinking. Nuns grow and smoke pot, teens vape, and cigars appear.

Tense chases, manhunts and a menacing villain fixated on the hero's daughter. Scenes of the teen at the mercy of armed captors and a militia are especially unsettling.
