Frequent scenes of automatic gunfire, explosions and blood injuries are seen. Characters are shot or have guns pointed at them. Characters fight with knives. Air missiles strike both a housing compound and a helicopter carrying children. A man and woman engage in a brutal hand-to-hand fight, throwing furniture and bottles, along with punching and kicking. A man is thrown over the side of a tall building (the sound of his body hitting the ground is heard). A man’s eye is poked out during a fight. Another man is sucked into a jet engine causing the plane to explode. An injured character licks the blood from his wound. Characters are mocked for their moral beliefs. Men bet on a chicken fight. Characters drink on numerous occasions. One man inhales a substance through a water pipe and appears to be high. Portrayals of sexual activity include extended scenes of passionate kissing and embracing. A woman removes her bra (exposing her bare back) and a couple is shown lying together after sex. A puppet show includes the depiction of animal copulation. Girls are seen in bikinis and other skimpy clothing. A man appears to nuzzle a shirtless doll. Sexual innuendo and comments are also included. Frequent scatological slang, profanities, some terms of Deity and a strong sexual expletive are used in the script.
