The plot heavily revolves around the protagonist kidnapping and tormenting his wife because he suspects she's cheating on him, which is played for comedy. The movie (or at least the husband) argue that he's doing her a favor, since she's grown dissatisfied with her life and he's giving her "an adventure".

The antagonist woman is slapped hard across the face multiple times throughout one scene, while her employer berates her. It is played for shock value, yes.

lying ≠ gaslighting. harry lies about his whereabouts/job because he’s a spy, not to manipulate his family.

A small dog yelps (49 min) and gets pulled off the ground while being walked after its owner takes out his frustration and yanks his leash. Dog does not seem to sustain injuries after the scene.

Harry uses a makeshift flamethrower against a crowd of the terrorist organization. It's dark and we mostly see people running around on fire, screaming. It isn't particularly gratuitous, no focus on charred bodies or the like.

there are a lot of tense scenes at the end involving characters walking on an extended crane arm and then hanging on a harrier.
[spoiler] the bad guy does fall to his death by the end but the threat of others falling exists at the time

As the other commenter said. The man is insistent and doing this to antagonize the father. He rattles off speculations to make the father imagine the daughter being sexually active, eventually culminating to accusing her of stealing money to get an abortion.

At the climatic bridge scene, there is a notable shot of a man going completely under the wheel of a fast moving vehicle, and is then jammed between the vehicle and the concrete traffic wall of the bridge.
