Our take
Two millennials in New York lease apartments they do not own to tenants who have no idea they are being scammed. The con holds until they cross an owner with a dark secret who turns the tables. Strong language, action violence, and sexual-assault references come with the US R rating. ClearAge puts it around US R for mature older teens and adults.
Story (may spoil tone)
Two millennials make quick money by leasing incredible New York City apartments they don’t own to people who don’t know they are being scammed. The con works brilliantly until they run into an apartment owner with a dark secret who flips the game on them.

Stabbings, bloody neck wounds, and graphic medical violence arrive with a mad-surgeon storyline, including skulls opened so the brain is visible. The hurt keeps coming. It stays sustained and ugly through the thriller

Most of the swearing is the f-word, and it runs hard through the thriller. Threats and fights also pull in the s-word, the b-word, and other harsh insults

The early scam stretch has a steamy, sexualised feel with kissing and cleavage, and the R rating flags sexual material. Sex content stays in the mix even after gore moves to the front

Social scenes keep turning up wine, beer, and drunk behavior across the story. Drinking sits as a recurring background habit from start to finish

When the scam slides into captivity and surgery horror, long stretches stay tense and upsetting. Graphic medical threat is what keeps the fear going

Restricted rating partly rests on suicide and self-harm themes. Treat them as a serious parent flag. The guide does not spell out method

Sexual assault sits inside the adult rating, including an attempted rape, and coercion is woven through the crime-horror plot. That is more than offhand talk

Injury detail goes extreme: opened skulls with the brain visible, deep neck cuts, and bloody stabbing. The body gore reads as realistic and shot close-up

Talk covers parents who have died and grief that pushes people toward bad choices. That weight sits under the horror throughout
