Sex & Nudity

  • Some models in very revealing clothing walk up and down a runway at a dinner party. Seen twice, but both instances are brief.
  • When the marshals break into a home, someone has a photo above their bed of a woman with no clothes on. Bare breasts are visible. However, this is pretty easy to miss.
  • A very brief side shot of Ford with his shirt off and pants pulled 1/2 way down his butt in a non-sexual context (he's treating a wound). He is seen from a side view doing this.
  • Kimble has a brief, suggestive dream about his late wife. The scene shows her on top, from his point of view, and then him on top of her.
  • The marshals break into a home and we see a fugitive jump out of bed with a woman; the man is in a tank top and underwear, and the woman is wearing a night-shirt.
  • Kimble relives the night his wife is murdered, and we see her in a low cut night gown, crawling on the bed.

Violence & Gore

  • There's a brutal fight aboard a train where a police officer is shot in the chest and killed, though this isn't very graphic. Another man attacks the killer and they violently fight.
  • A man is hit twice with a metal pipe.
  • A man is hit in the face by a sliding girder.
  • There's an intense scene near the beginning in which a transport bus crashes onto a train track, and the train hits the bus and derails. There's a lot of destruction, and a few characters are wounded.
  • A group of marshals raid a home to catch an escaped convict, and the convict holds one of them at gun point. Another marshal takes him by surprise, and fatally shoots him. Not very graphic.
  • The murder flash backs are intense and could be scary for younger viewers. Also you can see his wife a little bloody but not too graphic. Also you see some black and white pictures of the crime scene that might be a little freaky.
  • A man is shot and blood sprays on car window.
  • We see a nasty wound which Kimble stitches shut himself.
  • We see a woman brutally killed in flashbacks.
  • Two men engage in a brutal fight in the end. During this, a man is hit in the back with a chair and slammed into some objects. Many punches are thrown, and some blood is seen.
  • Two men fight and struggle with each other in a house. We see this in flashbacks.
  • Some brief blood splatters. Briefly disturbing
  • There are some violent images but nothing too graphic.
  • A man is stabbed with a small homemade dagger.

Profanity

  • Jesus used as an expletive multiple times.
  • Cinemax content advisory: rated PG-13 for violence (V), adult language (AL), and adult content (AC).
  • "Shit" is used over a dozen times, while the words "damn," "hell," and the phrase "son of a bitch" are each used moderately throughout.

Alcohol, Drugs & Smoking

  • Tommy Lee Jones is seen smoking a cigar several times.
  • Kimble is shown taking a swig of beer.
  • A character turns out to be a drug dealer.

Frightening & Intense Scenes

  • The bus/train wreck is extremely intense.
  • Kimble is involved in two intense, bloody fistfights.
  • There are several intense scenes where Kimble flees the police.
  • There is an intense police raid on a house where an escaped convict is staying. A woman screams uncontrollably, and the convict holds one police officer at gunpoint while threatening to "blow his brains out."
  • Kimble jumps down a waterfall into a gaping abyss in a desperate attempt to flee the authorities.
  • An intense movie from start to finish.
  • The beginning of the movie shows Helen's brutal murder.
