Sex & Nudity

Some kissing

A couple has sex briefly in a hot spring (they're both naked, but nothing explict is shown).

Violence & Gore

A woman in a car is hit over the head by a hot rock (blood pours down her face).

The badly burned and bloody bodies of a dead couple are found floating on a superheated hot spring.

A lady jumps out of a boat into a lake of acid to pull it to shore before it sinks. In the process, her legs become badly burned. The bloody blistering legs are briefly shown, and are sometimes edited out of the television version. She dies hours later.

A van tries to cross the bridge, but is swept away into the water, with a man inside it, killing him.

Multiple scenes of people running in peril from falling buildings, ash, and the like.

A helicopter full of people explodes in midair.

Profanity

Some use of profanity ("d" words and such) but one s*** word does appear during the boat scene. uses of SOB.

Main hang out is the local bar. Mom and Dr. drink wine together.

Overall the movie is a thriller, there are many extremely intense scenes of people trying to survive. Young kids should not watch it unless accompained by an adult.

The scenes described above in violence/gore may appear frightening to some viewers. A lot of screaming. Children in peril.
