Not sure how anyone could say no. The bees in the movie are real and were bred for the movie. Dozens of those bees stung people (and the bees subsequently died)

A story about a young boy being attacked is shown. The young boy is shown with his genitals removed, writhing and screaming. Very upsetting.
Later, an extended scene where a cop demands the main character undress. She is crying and covered in blood. Extended scene that is very dehumanizing/triggering.

Throughout the movie all black characters are portrayed negatively. A majority of the black characters are poor, and many are gang members, violent, and presumed drug sellers/users. Mention of slavery and a story of a black slave becoming incredibly wealthy post-Civil War. These factors are hypothesized by one character to be catalysts for a black character's horrible violence. A major character is a black woman who comments she and her friend are in a poor area of the city, and she is terrified of the gang members at the building's entrance.
