Sex & Nudity
-
- Male buttocks briefly visible
- Mercutio wears drag to a party and does a lip syncing routine. He's shown later with his top off. We also see part of his butt from a distance and he pulls an envelope out of this skirt
- We see part of a woman's breast for a split second as she runs around in a corset and robe. In a later scene she kisses her nephew and her husband hikes up his costume to reveal underwear
- A priest walks around shirtless for a bit while teaching some younger boys
- Some establishing shots contain women in bikinis and moving suggestively on beach
- A man licks his nipple to try and seduce some Catholic schoolgirls.
- Romeo enters Juliet's room on their wedding night and they kiss. She removes his shirt, and he hers (she isn't wearing a bra, but only her bare back is seen). They kiss passionately, though all we see is his upper body and her back and shoulders.
- The next morning they wake up naked in bed together (her bare back is seen again). He stands (barely covered by sheets, you see his naked thigh and side of his butt for a second) and puts on some boxers, and is seen in them for the rest of the scene. He gets on top of her and kisses her momentarily wearing only boxers -- his arms blocking any views of her breasts.
Violence & Gore
-
- A guy shoots at the water on the beach
- A man points a gun at a very young boy but doesn't shoot. He shoots a guy driving away later in the scene, but it we see the shot guy again and he looked to be in good shape
- Fireballs, gang shootouts.
- A man is shot and falls, and there is some blood on his torso and face.
- A woman shoots herself and there is some splattered blood on her face.
- A man has his abdomen sliced open with a piece of glass
- A car crash with two people getting hurt and blood on the asphalt.
- Threatening with guns, vicious beating with punches and kicks.
- For an extended scene, a few people are quite bloody (face, torso, clothing).
- Guns are held to peoples heads a few times.
- There is a very graphic shooting scene which is shown twice, once as a flashback. It is predominent to the film's story.
Profanity
-
- Probably something mild or Shakespearean. A man bites his thumb at another man, who reacts as if it was an obscene gesture
Alcohol, Drugs & Smoking
-
- When Romeo's parents seek him out, he is seen sitting near the ocean, smoking a cigarette.
- Lady Capulet smokes when she is getting ready for the feast.
- Mercutio offers Romeo a small white pill which is meant to be understood as ecstacy. It blurs Romeo's vision during the party and he must go to the bathroom and douse his head in water to shake off its effects.
- As Tybalt watches the Montagues leave the feast/party, he smokes cigarette.
Frightening & Intense Scenes
-
- The first half of the film is lighthearted and/or comical (even the violence was ridiculous), but after the wedding scene the movie gets darker and more somber in tone
Spoilers
Violence & Gore
- Juliet shoots herself in the head. The actual shooting is shown from a distance, but afterwards a blood splatter is visible on and around her.
- The film's famous final double-suicide may be seen as glamorizing teen suicide. The teen lovers kill themselves (he poisons himself, she shoots herself) onscreen amid much tears, then after they are dead, they are lying tranquilly in a room full of candles.
Alcohol, Drugs & Smoking
- Tybalt smokes at the gas station, which ends up setting gasoline on the ground on fire.
Frightening & Intense Scenes
- The double suicide at the end can be very intense for viewers
- The last scene when Juliet shoots herself may be disturbing to some viewers.
- The scene where Romeo kills Juliet's cousin Tybalt may disturb some viewers.
