Absolutely. The main villain that Eve is hunting tries to gaslight a child he kidnapped (his grandchild) that he is a good person and that she needs to remain with her family (the cult) that her dad was trying to get her out of.

Not necessarily parental, but parental-like figures. The “headmistress” of the ballet studio is very strict and pushes the ballet dancers/assassin women to the extreme. The leader of their “rival faction” in which they have a tenuous agreement between is a grandparent of Eve (I think) and while he doesn’t overtly abuse his grandchild that he kidnapped, he uses manipulation to make her believe he is good when he is not, which can mirror abusive parental relationships.

Kind of. A child is kidnapped against her will, and earlier in the movie the FMC (Eve) is almost kidnapped as well. It’s a big theme in the movie. No overt child harm, though.

Not really but it is worth noting that when Eve is doing pirouettes for the “headmistress” type person in the movie, Eve is exhausted and keeps falling and her feet are bleeding. The headmistress seemed unfazed and at times almost amused, telling her “again” over and over. It’s not in front of a crowd at all, but it’s pretty clear Eve is in a lot of pain/exhausted and is pushing through it at her leader’s orders and it’s kind of saddening.

Not on screen, but there is a scene where a side character is clearly skinning a dead deer carcass hanging from the ceiling. There’s sounds of buzzing flies but you don’t see anything. The carcass also looks pretty fake and it’s not gorey at all. You don’t see any blood or guts. It’s just worth noting because it might be upsetting for someone to see this.

Short scene where someone has a deer carcass hanging from the ceiling. There’s a sound of buzzing flies but only for about half a second, and you don’t see anything. Could be triggering to some

Eve is restrained to a chair by the head of her rival faction, the one that killed her dad. I was worried there would be a torture scene but thankfully not.

Eve, during a fight in the cult village, gouges out a man’s eye with her fingers. She’s in the sort of restaurant/cafe area and it’s when she’s on his back, I believe after she’s hit him in the head multiple times with a frying pan

No, but Eve does have a ballerina music box type thing that she’s clearly attached to and it is taken from her after she joins the ballerina/assassin studio. She later encounters said toy again as an adult and it’s clear she’s having very painful emotions about seeing it. Kind of a “reminder of the loss of innocence” moment.

Yes, when Eve finishes her training she is forced to kill a member of her own faction as her final test. When the gun goes off, you see a flash to the first time Eve killed someone when she was a child (in order to save her dad). It’s not an extremely overt display of PTSD, but that event clearly affected Eve as a child.

There is a scene early in the film where Eve’s father is told to kill himself to save her. He almost does, but Eve stops him. He has a gun to his head and everything, it was pretty intense.

Not really bad, but young Eve does have to hide in a secret hallway behind a bookcase/library and it’s a bit dark and the area is a little tighter than most areas in the movie

The club scene for Eve’s first mission has MAJOR flashing lights. You’ll be able to know it’s coming when they are introducing her to the targets of her first mission. She’ll make a comment about using rubber bullets. It’ll be the scene right after this. The beginning is much worse than later in this rather long scene, and only lasts probably about 30 seconds, but as a whole the club scene has a lot of bright lights and at some point they’re flashing. That long scene ends with her helping the target she’s supposed to protect. If you’re covering your eyes, the start of the next scene is Eve getting a tattoo on her back so you’ll hear the sound of a tattoo gun.

There’s moments where Eve is watched on CCTV (or perhaps it was a sniper’s rifle with some kind of night vision, but it looks like CCTV) and a moment where a guy whose entire job is to watch down upon the cult village is watching her through telescopes from a higher vantage point. John Wick also watches her through a sniper scope.
