The main character is literally hunted off and on by another character, who sometimes appears in disguise and who tortures and kills him whenever he can catch him.

Sarah's family clearly have a grudge against her, suggesting that she's "making it worse"

Characters drink a lot throughout the film, seemingly as a coping mechanism while stuck in the time loop; including drinking alone, in the middle of the day, and while operating vehicles. Because of the time loop their actions don't have long-term consequences, and the film doesn't overly focus on the drinking or treat it as a serious problem.

The female lead decides to test a theory about escaping the time loop with the use of explosives by first sending in a goat. To do this, she must first get the goat into the time loop, then send him into the cave and blow him up. The explosion occurs off-screen. The looped goat doesn't return when the day resets, but the characters cannot know for sure whether he is alive. His fate is never definitively resolved, but since the same method successfully breaks the human characters out of the loop without injury, the implication is that the goat is also unharmed.

Characters have had sex outside of the time loop that they do not remember and are not informed about, which could hit some consent buttons a little funky, but all sex is implied to be consensual. No one is ever shown having sex while showing outward signs of drunkness, but many times they have just consumed alcohol.

Kind of. A character is crushed but it's later said that they died days later, making it technically off screen. The "crushing" is still shown.

There's a brief shot of the main character burning alive in one of the iterations of the time loop. Not overly distressing because we take for granted that he will wake up unharmed the next day as part of the premise of the film.

At 17:15 minutes, Tala runs and slips on a pool deck and lands on her face. She breaks several teeth, which are shown, and the next minute or so onscreen shows her teeth missing, blood in her mouth, and a phone conversation with a dentist about getting them fixed. Over by 18:00.

There's a scene in which the female lead grabs the male lead's big toe and yanks on it/twists it to wake him up. This makes a loud popping/cracking sound and he cries out, but whether he suffers any injury is never revealed.

a brief sequence of torture is shown, including electrocution, waterboarding, and etc., each clip lasts less than a second and the entire sequence lasts about five seconds. it is played for comedy to highlight how bad the tension between two characters are.

Both lead characters cheat with other characters and one of them also exclaims that he is "just like his dad" in reference to cheating, though it's unclear whether we ever meet this character. The male lead also reveals to the female lead that he had sex with her in many time loops, but lied about it when she joined him in the loop.

The characters commit suicide on multiple occasions, generally through the use of vehicles. However, they technically come out unharmed each time, since death merely resets the loop. No cutting, etc.

As previously noted, the male lead commits suicide many times, but his orientation is arguable, at best. He has intercourse with another man on one occasion and off-handedly states that he's glad he tried it. He never professes to be bisexual. In a time loop, you can be curious and try anything without consequences. No LGBT characters die of hate crimes, AIDs, the passive prejudice of writers, or anything else that would typically be triggering in this category.

A plane DOES crash, but it is CGI and played for humor. The characters stuck in the loop get drunk and steal a small plane, which they can't fly, and it is shown crashing with a large "explosion" played for humor. It's a brief scene and no one dies or is injured, the two main characters just wake up again afterward.

Well, he MAY actually die from the waterboarding (which I'd say is shown for a second or less), but dying just resets his time anyway. ... We see people in a pool, but they're absolutely fine in the scenes. No one is in the ocean, a lake or a river.
