Teenage girls in their school uniforms are later shown in heavily sexualised outfits, with close-up ass and chest shots. Extremely gratuitous sexualisation of minors.

Not on screen, but someone is referred to as a drug addict right before being killed.

Technically yes, a man digs into his bullet wound to take out the bullet, but this is necessary for his survival

There is a scene of several bodies hanging from a tree, but it appears as though they were killed as part of the purge, not by suicide. The scene may still be triggering for some, but it is brief.

A few scenes with heavy gunfire have some quick white flashes, but should be safe for most unless you're extremely sensitive.
