  The majority of the film consists of shootouts and gunplay, as the main character is forced to use lethal force against the bad guys. Many characters die from gunshots, and there is a fair amount of blood but never any gore.

  There is one brutal fight scene in which a character is repeatedly kicked in the face, and the altercation ends when one of the combatants is hung from a chain by the neck.

  One character is shot in the groin and waist through a table, and another character is shot point-blank and dies. One character is shot in the head, and the hole in his head, as well as some spattered blood, can be seen.

  Two characters get into a brief fight, and one of the characters falls down the stairs and breaks their neck. The dead man's body is then tied to a chair and put into an elevator.

  The protagonist drops a homemade bomb down an elevator shaft, resulting in a large explosion, which kills two bad guys.

  One character is shot, and falls out of the building to his death, though he isn't shown hitting the ground.

  The protagonist's feet get cut by glass that he steps on after many windows are shot out in a gunfight.

  There is also a scene where the protagonist kills a terrorist and throws him out the window to attract the attention of a police officer. The body slams into the police officers windshield and he crashes the car in panic.

  John's feet are cut by glass. A bit bloody.

  There is some blood when people get shot (generally while running). Nothing overly graphic however.

  The fight scene between John and Karl is brutal and intense.
