Sex & Nudity

  • There is one scene where characters are cracking jokes, and one asks if anyone likes to masturbate. Played for laughs.
  • There are a few kiss scenes in the movie. Nothing very sexual.
  • There is one scene where the main front entrance of the college is made to look like a woman giving birth, with giant fake legs spread out, and the doors are in between the legs. Nothing explicit is shown, played for laughs.

Violence & Gore

  • A bit of minor blood here and there, but it is hard to notice and at most will span out the duration of 1 or 2 seconds.

Profanity

  • There is some moderate profanity throughout the film. These words are used occasionally: "bitch," "shit," "dickhead," and "prick" respectively. There is one incomplete use of the word "motherfucker" as well.

  • Very little/no drinking.
