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.

Sex & Nudity

A girl get undressed (very brief full-frontal nudity) and lays in bed with another girl. She kisses her on head and then the scene gets EMOTIONAL. They kiss while the naked girl gets the other girl undressed. Nudity is continuously shown, bare breasts and nipples are visible. Then both of them passionately kiss each other. The scene ends after about 30 seconds.

In another scene, two topless girls have sex while one of them resists to stop such relations.

The two above scenes are more emotional and dark than erotically-driven.

A character is shown in a shower, but is blurred by the glass.

A woman masturbates frustratingly on the living room couch. We see her clear movements, but no nudity. The scene is very sad and depressing and not sexy in the least bit.

Violence & Gore

A car crash is briefly shown.

An assassin shoots another man in the head (blood is later shown on the wall). He tries to put the gun in his had to make it look as if he shot himself, but he accidentally ends up shooting again, this time the bullet goes through the wall and hits a fat lady. He gets in a fight with her and drags her to the room where the man was killed and shoots her dead. Then a janitor comes and the assassin shoots him.

We see a corpse of a woman on a bed, her head noticeably disfigured.

A woman hires a hit-man to kill her ex-girlfriend.

A woman shoots herself in the mouth and smoke fills the room.

Profanity

Three uses of the word "fuck", a few mild obscenities.

Two leading characters smoke cigarettes (Justin Theroux: throughout; Laura Harring: just one drag), so do some supporting characters in a handful of scenes.

Casual drinking of alcohol throughout.

A man comes out from behind a wall. He looks very gruesome. At this sight, a man faints and seemingly dies from shock. Because of the atmosphere and mood of this particular scene, it can be very scary for some viewers.

The whole movie also has a dream-like dark atmosphere.
