Offensive is subjective. I had a couple complain about the sex scenes in the Thomas Crown Affair. I was on a train, sitting across the aisle from them, and had listened to them use rather pithy language for the past hour. Yet they chose to be offended by the film I was watching across the aisle and moan about me. (They knew that I spoke English as I had helped them with their wifi earlier)

I suggest the recent BBC film United. It has a very horrific scene about the crash at München-Riem. If you time it right, you may be able to watch the repeated aborted takeoff attempts during takeoff. (Or not, because electronics will be off)
