This movie contains 40 potentially triggering events.
There is a brief sequence taking place in a ballet theater where two characters are walking through various rooms with people ranging from preteens to young adults; it is heavily implied that the physical and dance training they go through is purposefully painful. A director makes a young dancer of indeterminate age start over a routine after she collapses, and there are bruises shown on the dancer's legs.
Two dogs assist in an action sequence by helping the main characters during a gun fight, attacking only other human characters. They are never harmed and make it through the entire battle safely.
I just watched this film and don't recall seeing any dead animals. Fake-out shooting of a dog who is ok, a cat eats sushi and is fine, birds appear and are fine. Horses appear and are fine.Perhaps the Yes votes are for a sea urchin that is served as sushi? You do not see it die, doubtful it is a real urchin. There is a scene in a museum but I don't remember seeing dead animals.
It's two blink and you miss them moments, but a white bug crawls down John Wick's lapel and another two bugs crawl on his cuffs in two of the desert scenes
John Wick cuts his own finger off, it is quick but still gruesome. Another characters finger tips potentially get cut off, but it's so quick and you barely see it that I'm not even sure if I'm right.
Several of John's moves involve breaking bones, but they're all quick movements accompanied by a snapping\crunching noise. There are no elongated scenes of breaking a bone, and no bones are ever visible
Several scenes of elongated suffering (someone being forced to cut off their own finger, someone’s hands being stabbed as punishment, and someone’s back being branded).
During the third act of the movie a long fight scene takes place in a room only lit by green neon track lights that flicker intermittently.
Other than that, there are some scenes where the repeated muzzle flair of guns might be too much in lowly lit rooms
