Sex & Nudity

  • A wife walks into a home office where her husband is seated in profile at a desk quickly zips his trousers (we see a glimpse of one partial upper thigh) and the wife asks what kind of porn he is using (we see a woman on a laptop screen live on camera, in full frontal nudity from head to knees, including breasts and pubic region as she walks to the camera); the wife becomes angry and insists her husband leave the house.
  • A man enters a kitchen and kisses a woman, sweeps clutter from a counter, sits her on it and removes his shirt to reveal his bare chest; he leans forward between her legs while kissing her, and the camera cuts to an overhead view of the couple on their backs in bed under covers, side by side with and the man jokes, "I think I got pregnant"; under the covers, he slides down the bed and off-screen after suggesting oral sex, she says, "Hmmm" and the scene ends.
  • Two women at a party kiss passionately and then add another woman and all three kiss one another. A man and a woman try to kiss and smack their teeth together; they try again and kiss for a few seconds. A man kisses a woman's cheek while on a sidewalk.
  • A woman pinches the nipple area of a clothed man's chest while standing in front of a car. A woman flirts with a man, smiling and staring at him and he smiles back. A woman touches a man's arm and tells other women that he has a hard body. A man says that he dreamed he was naked. A woman in a school assembly says that she likes her nanny better than she likes her husband. Women hug and a woman accidentally touches another woman's breast (the second woman moves away).
  • Strong sexual content includes married man caught having phone sex with another woman online, an unmarried couple is shown in bed together after having sex, numerous sexual references are made throughout the movie with some being graphic, and several scenes include homosexual characters or references to homosexuality, including two women kiss at party; fully nude woman is shown over a webcam online and upper male nudity during scenes implying sex.

Violence & Gore

  • Characters verbally argue and insult each other. Drunken characters walk through a grocery store where they open food packages and liquor bottles then pour the contents into their mouths and over their bodies-they also challenge a security guard and make a mess of the store. Characters slap each other.
  • A woman falls over a low fence and lands flat on her face (we see no injury). A child on a soccer field knocks a woman flat onto her back (we see no injury). A toddler hits his mother hard in the stomach with a plastic baseball bat and she crumples in pain. A woman in her parked van spills hot coffee onto her face and shrieks (no burns occur).
  • Some slapstick comedy, several drunk mothers vandalize a grocery store, and a mother commits a hit and run on another car.
  • Women argue and fight; one schemes to defame another's child. A mom doles out not-so-veiled threats to another. A couple yells at each other during therapy. A woman is so distracted while driving and speeding that she nearly crashes into a car; she also answers the phone, a lot, while driving.

Profanity

  • As an example of the extent of adult language, 'f-k' is used 69 times.
  • Profanity is heard throughout. Over 35 sexual expletives are used along with various crude terms for sex and anatomy, clinical anatomical words, scatological slang, racial slurs, terms of deity, and other milder forms of swearing.
  • At least 95 profanities and obscenities, many references to genitalia, several offensive slang terms used to describe men and women, and woman shown urinating in parking lot.
  • There is also some heavy profanity to deal with. Multiple and frequent instances of f**k and sh*t are heard. Also, the words c*nt, a**, a**-hole, b**ch, h*ll, t*ts, and p*ssy. God and the Lord's name are also taken in vain several times.
  • There are multiple uses of strong language ('motherf**ker' and 'f**k'). Other bad language includes 'screw', 'shitty', 'crap', 'bitch' and 'dick'.
  • Frequent use of everything from "fuck" and "motherfucker" to "shit," "dick," "cock," "pussy," "damn," and others.

Alcohol, Drugs & Smoking

  • A school principal finds a bag of joints in a girl's locker. It's implied he smokes it.
  • A woman does whippets.
  • Adult women drink to the point of getting wasted; they pour liquor all over themselves at one point, and one pees behind a car while (likely) drunk. A school principal discovers (and smokes) a few joints in a middle-schooler's locker; references to past drug use. Women do whippets at a big party. Jokes reference alcoholism.
  • Characters drink alcohol throughout the film and often appear inebriated. Jokes and positive references are made about drug use. An adult hides marijuana in a student's locker with the purpose of having the student expelled. A school principal implies that he uses marijuana and enjoys it. Although drunken characters are not seen driving, they journey from place to place while intoxicated.
  • Three women enter a grocery store and eat cereal from boxes, pouring some onto the floors; they open and spill bottles of vodka and chocolate milk onto floors as a police officer runs toward them, then runs away as one of the women charges him and he knocks down a tall display of cases of beverages.
  • A dog limps and collapses and a woman takes him to the vet, who says the dog has vertigo and will have diarrhea for 36 hours (we do not see diarrhea). A woman stands at the back of a car with her dress hiked up and squatting as someone says that she is urinating (we see one bare knee and thigh, but no urine and we hear no sound).
  • Several scenes feature alcohol and characters getting drunk; several scenes mention doing illegal drugs, one scene shows drugs found in a locker.
  • There is a scene of substance abuse as women at a party are shown sucking on the tops of a couple of whipped cream cans for the nitrous oxide high. There is sight of a couple of joints in a plastic bag as a school principal reprimands a pupil when they are found in her locker. There are also verbal references to weed smoking and to a woman being addicted to prescription medication.
  • Lots of drinking alcohol scenes espicially in a party scene.
