Since the beliefs that parents want to instill in their children can vary greatly, we ask that instead of adding your personal opinions about what is right or wrong in a film, that you instead use this feature to help parents make informed viewing decisions by describing the facts of relevant scenes in the title for each one of the different categories: Sex and Nudity, Violence and Gore, Profanity, Alcohol/Drugs/Smoking, and Frightening/Intense Scenes.
Visit our Parents Guide Help to learn more

Sex & Nudity

A man and a woman kiss passionately in a somewhat extended scene; she moves into his lap and he begins to remove her clothes. It is implied that they have sex, as they are later shown in bed.

A man tells a woman repeatedly that he "wants her".

A voice describes a man's sexual fantasies, that include picturing a woman "naked on his bed."

A woman tells a man that he's "looking at her tits".

In a locker room scene, we see full rear view nudity of several men.

Violence & Gore

A man pushes a young boy out of the way of a bus: He is hit by the bus and is thrown backwards. We see blood on the windshield and blood pool around his body, as well as grotesque gory cuts on his face. A woman leaps off a building in a daydream; a woman imagines herself falling off a bridge in her car. We see a man with bloody wounds in a hospital and hear that he has been injured in a gang shootout. A woman imagines and voices repeated attempts at being unable to find a way to kill the main character of a novel. A woman describes the body of a woman who has committed suicide.

Profanity

2 uses of the word "f***", as well as very few milder obscenities. Some sexually-derived terms as well ("Tits" for example)

One of the characters smokes constantly throughout the movie; she disposes of the cigarettes by spitting into a wad of tissue, deglamorizing the image of smoking in media (A woman attempts to rid her of her cigarette addiction by offering a Nicotine patch in several scenes).

In an intense sequence in which we know that a character will die, a man is hit by a bus in a highly realistic and graphic manner. Blood sprays onto the windshield and pools around his head as we see various pedestrians calling for help and standing over his body.
