Sex & Nudity

  • No nudity or sex shown in this movie.
  • A woman has a drunken one night stand (please see the Substance Use category for more details); they dance in their underwear (he wears a T-shirt and boxers while she wears a bra that reveals some cleavage with skimpy panties), they fall into a bed and we see them both grip a wrapped condom in their teeth and the camera cuts to morning as the woman is shown wearing the bra and we see her panties under the man's head and his bare arms above a quilt; the camera cuts to her squatting to gather her clothing and the scene ends. She ends up pregnant from that encounter and has an abortion.

Violence & Gore

  • A woman jokingly says that she'd "love to murder-suicide" her boyfriend and his new lover.
  • We see a woman with her face and shoulders in close-up, face up to the camera, as she lies in a reclined clinic treatment chair and a female doctor says the procedure is starting as we hear a soft buzzing and the scene ends.

Profanity

  • About 24 F-words and its derivatives, 6 sexual references, 19 scatological terms, 31 anatomical terms, 6 mild obscenities, 2 religious profanities (GD) and 9 religious exclamations (e.g. For Christ's Sake, Oh My God, Oh God, Thank God).
  • Name-calling (crazy, mad, sociopath, stupid, weird and weird old white men.)
  • Stereotypical references to men, women, comedians, parents, grandparents, the rich, Jews, Christians, white men, Dominicans, Baby Boomers, conservative grad students and homosexuals.

Alcohol, Drugs & Smoking

  • A woman employee of an older man whose bookshop is closing jokingly tells him that he should go away to Woodstock to enjoy music and drugs and he laughs and says that he might do that.
  • Several scenes feature a club in which many men and women drink glasses of whiskey and mixed drinks as well as bottles of beer and glasses of wine while we see a long shelf of many liquor bottles with some wine bottles and beer taps.
  • A man and a woman are both seen very drunk before a one-night-stand.

Frightening & Intense Scenes

Spoilers

The Parents Guide items below may give away important plot points.

Sex & Nudity

  • A montage of a woman trying to rehash what happened to her last night (she had a one-night-stand) by imagining multiple scenarios in her head. She imagines first that a man jokingly pulls a condom out on top of her while they are both extremely drunk and rips it open with his mouth referred to as "razor-sharp teeth", implying that the condom was broken. She then imagines that her and the same man are both completely sober and she fancily hands him a condom before he thanks her.

Alcohol, Drugs & Smoking

  • A woman becomes groggy from the effects of a sedative given for an abortion and closes her eyes.

Frightening & Intense Scenes

  • The ending (in which the main character decides to get an abortion) may upset some.
