Carla Davenport ( Kate Beckinsale) has a very vulgar sex scene with a man, he can be seen humping her and the noise is very graphic, the scene is horrible. Bruce Laraby and his wife Joan (Embeth Davidtz) have a brief bedroom scene, where Bruce’s backside can be seen and semi-graphic noises can be heard there is also a brief and clean kissing scene between the couple, and Bruce is seen in his pajamas with his shirt off. Sexuality: The sex was very vulgar, inappropriate and unnecessary as usual, directors forget how good of a movie they have made and try to spice it up with sex, when, in reality, it isn’t needed. The violence was kept moderate and was well placed and only used for realistic purposes. Charlie Archenault ( Forest Whitaker) borrows money from a man, but doesn’t pay up, so the same man breaks his arm with a piece of cement, no blood is shown, but there is the sound of an arm breaking.

All of the victims of the shooting have several flashbacks that re-enact what took place from their perspective in the shooting. Bruce Laraby ( Guy Pearce) tries to revive one of his patients with paddles, but the patient is brain dead. There is also a hospital scene, where patients are covered in blood and surgery takes place that is somewhat graphic, but could be found on “E.R.” or “Grey’s Anatomy,” so nothing too horrible.ĭr. A shooting takes place in a diner, so people are shot and one man is shown in a pool of blood. The violence was kept pretty moderate for an R film. Violence: Since the entire film revolves around the shooting, it can be expected that there is violence. I had a problem with the 1 use of the Lord’s name in vain, it just wasn’t necessary, the use of the “F” word is debatable since this is an R film and is expected, but the word itself is horrible. As was previously stated, the cursing was mild for an R-rated film, but that does not mean the profanity used was acceptable. There are 2 uses of “damn”, 9 uses of “f***”, 1 use of “G**damn”, 2 uses of “Hell”, 2 uses of “sh**”, and 1 use of “prick”. Profanity: There are 17 uses of profanity, which I found to be mild for an R-rated film. With an all-star cast, “Fragments,” is a chilling tale of how people cope with tragedies some find religion, some find family, some find money, but in the end, it is up to the victim to decide what happens next. They all deal with their pain and grief in different ways, though they attempt to pick up the broken pieces and go back to their normal lives, the victims soon realize that they must face what happened in the diner. After a shooting takes place in a diner, its victims are forced to piece their shattered lives back together.
