Message
1/5

Celebrates bravery and perseverance, but also asserts that it's not helpful to trust the police. And it seems to argue that murder, mayhem, and destruction are OK in the name of the right cause.

Role model
2/5

Karla is a strong woman who continues her pursuit in the face of sheer terror, as well as many obstacles. That said, her acts of violence go largely unpunished, and she never stops to help any other victims while pursuing her son.

Violence
4/5

Children in peril. A knife is held to a child's throat, and a child is held out the open door of a moving vehicle. Guns and shooting. Dead bodies. Many car/vehicle crashes. Hit/hurt pedestrians, injured/killed motorists. Hitting with a shovel. Fighting, struggling, choking. Minor bloody wounds. Angry dog. A dog is shot.

Language
4/5

A use of "f--k," and a few uses of "s--t." Also "son of a bitch," "goddamn," "oh God," and "hell."
