B.A. character intensely awkward, literal, misreads - and he is frequently disturbed deliberately by his brother (‘if you want to upset him rearrange the furniture’, mimicking his voice, throwing a tube if cream he values) which is played [unbelievably] for comedic relief, and fraternal love - rather than as deliberately undermining/triggering/mocking an autist. I had to stop watching.
The austistic Affleck character is even referred to as having ‘Forrest Gump shoes’
No but Children are abducted from parents. A parent forgets their child due to head trauma causing amnesia. There is also a reference to the fact that the protagonists were abandoned by their mother.
There are women in fight scenes, and they do get hurt. Personally I see it as plot relevant and not for spectacle but that's arguable, so in case it might trigger you, steer clear.
There is a scene where a woman is assaulted and she fights back, for a moment the assailant is between her legs on the ground but nothing else happens and the motive is to kill not to rape. Also, she gets away from the assailant.
There are scenes of a patient with brain damage in hospital but I think this is a normal hospital. There are also scenes at the home for autistic children but this is not a mental institution
I think a lot of people seemed to have missed that Braxton (the brother) is also definitely on the spectrum. There is no single definitive form of autism. And autistic people can actually tease eachother, and just as shown here, it can be a defense mechanism, as well as not reciprocated. Also, younger brothers WILL YOUNGER BROTHER, they don't care about or see differences, just an okder brother who needs taken down a peg.
