Sex & Nudity

  • Constant crude sexual dialogue with references to masturbation, oral/anal sex, and the like. Two characters briefly watch a porno film but nothing explicit is shown. A woman and a teenage boy have sex (not graphic) and we briefly see full-frontal nudity on the woman.

Violence & Gore

  • Fits in the F&F franchise as a spin-off prequel for Han and co, since this deals with theft and criminal activity on minors.
  • Many fistfights, some of them leaving characters bloody and bruised.
  • A fight breaks out at a party and one character pulls a gun on another, threatening him and pistol whipping him to the ground.
  • People threaten each other with guns several times.

Profanity

  • Constant profanity including sexual dialogue and one discreet use of the "n" word.

Alcohol, Drugs & Smoking

  • Teenagers are seen frequently drinking alcohol and smoking cigarettes. They are also seen snorting cocaine and smoking marijuana. One character snorts so much cocaine that he experiences severe bleeding from his nose. There is a subplot about the main characters being drug dealers and we see them selling drugs to other teens several times.

Frightening & Intense Scenes

  • Many scenes of tension, arguments, fist-fights, etc. People are threatened with loaded guns.
  • The theme of teenagers engaging in acts of crime, drugs and violence may disturb some people.

Spoilers

The Parents Guide items below may give away important plot points.

Violence & Gore

  • Four characters attempt to violently beat another in a garage, but it quickly gets out of hand and he is bludgeoned with a baseball bat and then suffocated with a rag. The scene is more intense than violent (although we do see some blood and the beaten boy's body twitching) and it goes on for several minutes.

Frightening & Intense Scenes

  • The murder scene is very intense and prolonged.
