Sex & Nudity

Suggested MPAA description: Rated 'R' for Crude and Sexual Humor, Language, Comic Violence, and Brief Drug Use

Tons of sexual phrases and gestures, however nothing is graphically shown.

A few jokes about raping women, but again nothing graphic is shown.

Violence & Gore

The hero, furious at being left to drown in quicksand while his racist foreman recovered the sinking handcar instead, hits him with a shovel.

A few non-graphic shootouts for comedic effect.

Firearms are used throughout the film.

A man is shot in the testicles.

A huge brawl near the end with attacks ranging from mundane punches to silly methods like bad breath and cream pies.

Profanity

Several derogatory terms are used the movie especially towards the Asian and Black community, and may offend viewers. Other graphic language is also included

One character is an alcoholic. Also several scenes take place at a bar.

The lead character smokes and shares marijuana with a prisoner.
