Parental Guide


Could someone who has seen it please complete the parental guide? There is information on sex and profanity but I would be grateful for a detailed summary of all the violence in this movie. Thank you!

There are scenes of dead bodies being dismembered with butchers tools. Thats the most disturbing thing. Other than that it the typical mob movie gunshot executions. There's a throat slashing at the beginning.

How bloody are the gunshot executions? More or less than Goodfellas for example? Also how many gunshot executions are there? 3 or 30, etc? Thanks!

Theres about...4 or 5 gunshot deaths? I dont recall them being excessively bloody. Its a mob movie, but its not a really violent one. Its really a movie about a guy leading a double life as a family man and a hitman, with some sporadic killing in between. Some deaths dont involve a gun. Guy is strangled with a rope and another gets cyanide sprayed in his face. The dead bodies being hacked up, and the throat slashing would be more disturbing than the gunshots, to someone sensitive about graphic violence.

In a nutshell, theres 2 short graphic scenes in a 2 hour movie of clean gunshot/cyanide/strangulation deaths.

Its been 2 weeks, and I've been through some other films. The fact that I can remember the dismemberment and throat slashing scenes more than the gunshots should tell you how harmless the shootings were :).
