Sex & Nudity

  • Halle Berry's character wears skimpy clothing and flirts with Fred Flintstone.
  • Wilma and Betty wear low-cut dresses in a few scenes.
  • Fred makes a brief comment about walking around the house in his underwear.
  • Married couples kiss.
  • Fred mentions that he thinks his bronto-crane, a brontosaurus, is pregnant, remarking that they lock them up in one room every Saturday night and if one's forgotten to be locked up this can happen

Violence & Gore

  • There are cartoon violence (characters get violence with cartoon comic sound), so it looks cartoonish, not realistic.
  • Two children are abducted and placed under a conveyor belt that would kill them.
  • A man dies after getting covered in cement.
  • There is some kind of odd explosion at a playground in one scene. Kids are screaming as their parents pick them up and run away.
  • Barney punches Fred in one scene, knocking him unconscious.
  • Bam-Bam, who is about six or seven years old, hits people and objects with a club in various scenes. Serious injury is never caused, though.
  • An angry mob attempts to hang Fred and Barney.
  • Betty strangles the Dicta-Bird, but he isn't hurt.
  • Many people, including Cliff and Barney, are clonked in the head and/or knocked over all throughout the film.
  • Fred pictures his mother-in-law screaming in a dinosaur's mouth (all very silly).

Profanity

  • One use of damn
  • A few prehistoric euphemisms (e.g. "son of a brachiosaurus!")

Alcohol, Drugs & Smoking

  • Smoking is present.
  • Wilma's mother, played by Elizabeth Taylor, appears drunk in many of the scenes she's in.
  • Fred, Barney and the other Water Buffaloes all drink out of a giant stone mug, and Fred comes home late that night, apparently drunk.
  • Fred orders/drinks wine at a fancy restaurant.
  • A homeless man offers Fred an anonymous liquor, saying it'll grow hair on his knuckles.

Frightening & Intense Scenes

  • Two children are kidnapped. We see them screaming as they move down a rock crushing/shaping conveyor belt. They all end up okay, but there is tension before/while they are being rescued.
  • A woman is gagged, and her hands/feet are tied together in a scene.
