Ages 15+, but every child is different

This film features pervasive stylized violence, use of firearms, and high-stakes conflict centered on marital betrayal. The thematic focus on lethal professional agendas and aggressive domestic confrontation requires mature viewers capable of distinguishing between character motivations and real-world behavior.
