The thing to know: brutal violence, more than a PG-13 usually carries. Beyond that, no sex or nudity and some strong language.

Our estimate: fine from about 16, higher than the PG-13 suggests, because of the violence.

Scare: Not scary
Jump scares: A couple; One or two sudden jolts.
Gore: Light gore; Some blood or injury, briefly.
Violence: Brutal violence; Our top level for violence.
Sex and nudity: None noted
Language: Moderate; Some strong profanity, a few f-words.
