Positive Messages
Some moments when teamwork is required to survive and characters of different cultures come together, but these moments are fairly short-lived, and they don't add up to much. Otherwise, the movie demonstrates that greed -- both by corporations and by individuals -- is destructive.
Positive Role Models & Representations
Violence
Gory, burned corpses. Stabbing with knife. Beating to death with wrench. Several deaths. Angry shouting, fighting. Explosions, crashes. Bloody wounds. Skeletons of shackled dead bodies. General anxiety, tension, and terror as a sub floods with water.
Sex
An 18-year-old looks at a picture of an ultrasound, implying that he's gotten a girl pregnant. (This despite references to him being a virgin.) Flashbacks to a character's wife wearing a bikini on a beach. Some kissing.
Language
Nearly constant swearing, including very frequent use of "f--k" and "s--t." Also "ass," "whore," "d--k," "prick," "bastard," and "sweet Jesus."
Consumerism
