Gangster Paradise

The gangster genre involves crime, usually organized. There are different gangs, a lot of the time families, and those gangs are at war. Gangster films are very violent. Gangster films are different today than they were because the censorship codes are not as strict as they were. Criminals can win, like in Pulp Fiction, and cops can lose, like in Reservoir Dogs.

You can't show that sh*t in yo movies!

Since both sides (good and bad if you can call it that) are criminals, so however the story turns out, a criminal (or criminals) is going to win. The police are kind of suckers, and they're connected to the mob. In terms of sex, there's really nothing (yet ;), so it doesn't break the code in that sense. In terms of violence, it follows the code for the most part. There is violence in the film but not alot of blood is shown.
