Gone Girl

good but gratuitous in spots we can't fully know people

Gone Girl (2014) follows Nick, a man struggling with his community and safety after he is blamed for his wife’s disappearance. Throughout the film expect tons of mature and graphic elements including numerous sex scenes, a scene of bloody violence, language and some disturbing depictions of staged rape. VIOLENCE: SEVERE Up to the end of the film, violence is tame and relatively mild. When the end does occur, however, there is a scene of bloody violence and numerous disturbing scenes. A man grabs and throws his wife onto the floor. A woman takes a hammer and smashes it into her face. A woman is shown draining blood from her arm and then smearing it all over the floor to stage a murder. A woman takes wine and rubs it onto her panties to make it look like blood from being raped. She crawls on the floor and violently screams so her (faked) agony can be recorded. Then, she takes a wine bottle and forces it into her vagina (below the camera) to make it appear she was raped. During rough sex, a woman takes a box cutter and slashes a man’s throat with it. His slashed open throat begins to profusely pour out and spray blood all over the woman and all over the bed and surroundings. The woman becomes soaked in blood along with the man’s body as blood sprays and pours everywhere out of the man’s graphically open neck. The scene is extremely bloody, and that is a complete understatement as blood is everywhere soaking both the man and the woman. The man’s neck is shown with the huge tear in the middle slashed open after he eventually chokes and dies. The woman who previously killed the man is shown soaked in blood for a prolonged period of time afterwards as she is questioned by police, walks through her driveway and washes all of it off in the shower. A man grabs a woman’s head and slams it against the wall while violently calling her a “c*nt”. LANGUAGE: SEVERE Around 47 uses of “f*ck”, 4 uses of “c*nt”, several uses of “sh*t”, “b*tch”, “p*ssy” and many other swears. SEXUAL CONTENT: SEVERE There are 5 sex scenes in the film and many other scenes of sexual content. A man is shown giving a woman oral sex. He is shown licking her genital area as she moans in pleasure on the bed. His head is shown between her legs as he lifts her panties above his head. No graphic nudity or any nudity at all is shown, and the scene is rather brief. A man and a woman are shown having sex against a table. Brief thrusting and moaning is depicted in non-graphic detail. A man and a woman begin to have sex on a couch. The man removes the woman’s top revealing her breasts as the woman straddles the man and the camera pans away. The next morning they are shown waking up after the sex. The woman is still naked with her bare breasts visible as they quickly dress. A man and a woman are shown having sex against a dresser. The man is briefly shown thrusting into the woman from behind, however this is shown from the waist up and isn’t graphic whatsoever. A woman uses a wine bottle to penetrate herself in order to stage rape evidence. This is below the camera and brief. A man and a woman begin to have sex. They fall into the bed where the woman pulls down the man’s pants revealing his buttocks shown in graphic, up close detail. They begin to have sex when the man pulls his pants down all the way and begins thrusting in between the woman’s legs in graphic detail with loud clapping and moaning and thrusting depicted as they have sex on the bed. The man continues thrusting until his throat is slit soaking them both in blood. The man is still nude and falls onto his stomach. His penis is briefly shown after he is dead, although it is covered in blood and is very hard to see. A man and a woman shower together. Both of their bare buttocks are shown and the woman’s bare breasts are shown as well from the side, although nipples are briefly visible. The man’s penis can also be very quickly glimpsed as well. Lots of sexual dialogue relating to sex, rape and other topics like oral sex, a woman waxing her “p*ssy”, a woman being raped, sodomized and put in a “spread eagle” position as bondage. Lots of references to “f*cking” and other sexual activities.
