technically no. donnie (keanu) mentions killing a stray cat in passing but it's never shown (most likely because it didn't happen)

No onscreen assault takes place, but sexual abuse is a large part of one of the plots. An adult male character struggles with the fact that he was sexually abused by his father when he was a child. It gets recounted in detail. He's also mentally ill and often has outbursts. He's violent, suicidal, emotional, and has a strangely childlike personality despite all of that. It gets VERY intense/graphic and feels a little too real. I definitely didn't expect it in this movie at all since the description didn't mention him/it.

He gets revenge on the abuser, so that helped me cope a little. It's hard to stomach but the performances were amazing.

This movie is amazing and extremely safe. There are a couple scenes where you may think someone may v* or they are eluding to someone v*ing, but NOTHING HAPPENS. I am extremely visually emetephobic and I found zero issues with the movie!

The cops in this movie are either inept or portrayed as crooked/uncaring, so I would say no.

An adult male character deals with the fact he was sexually abused by his father as a child.

An adult female character is treated very oddly by her father which I think implies there is some level of abuse in her past by him but also potentially in her present. Some child abusers continue the abuse well into the victims adulthood, and their interaction definitely gave me that vibe.
