Very questionable family dynamics in general and the only child we see has adults be pretty snappy (if not negligent) towards him but none of it is ever the focus of a scene or plot point

There's an entire scene where the main female character gets sexually harassed at the gym. She eventually "talks back" and it's played as a "she can hold her own" moment and the harasser becomes the butt of the joke but it could still be extremely uncomfortable to some

The procedure is not shown but she is told she might have to lose her leg and in the next scene you can see her leg is missing under the blanket.

Talks of a character "losing his eye" as he lost sight from it after a fight, more of a figure of speech. However there are a lot of cuts etc. that happen around the eyes or very near them during fights, but never the eyes directly iirc

Woah spoilers guys lmao
As others have mentioned, the end could be read as a "being disabled is the worst thing that could happen, you might as well die" type of ending by some. That aside, all throughout the movie on of the gymgoers is the target of most ableism (violent ableism at that)

Played as rural (and intellectual) ignorance. Absolutely no harm or malice meant by it - just thought that should be specified given the two characters' wholesome relationship (that brief exchange could still be jarring to some)
