Sex & Nudity

The opening credits have silhouettes of nude women seen through transparent clothes and computer animated silhouettes of nude women.

Bond is kissing a woman in bed and her bare buttocks can be seen, but partially covered.

Bond has an ongoing sexual relationship with someone's wife, and though no actual sex is depicted, foreplay and the aftermath of these encounters are, which naturally depicts some mild nudity.

Innuendos, visual nods, and other sexual themes are present throughout. "Pumping for information", "I always enjoyed learning a new tongue" and "You always were a cunning linguist, James."

Bond and Wai Lin drive a motorcycle through someone's home, and there is brief nudity as the camera shows us a naked couple having sexual relations, but nothing too bad.

Violence & Gore

Little blood, but plenty of bodies.

Bond is lured to a room expecting to speak with someone and is slammed in the back with a baseball bat. He is then kicked in the ribs several times and also struck again with the bat in the ribs. The room is sound proof and some hits are seen, but not heard.

A women throws a throwing star into a man's throat, blood is seen.

Bond kicks a man in the face who is defencelessly lying on the ground.

During the huge fight at the end (high bodycount!) a blood fountain is seen over the whole screen.

Several defenceless people swimming in the water are mercilessly killed.

Some fist fights. in one of them a man gets a glass ashtray slammed over his head.

Bond kills a professional killer in execution style.

A big man gets a knife into his arm and his foot burned.

Profanity

Bastard is said

Bond drinks.

In his second outing as James Bond, Pierce Brosnan did not smoke. In fact, early in the movie, he hits a smoking character while mentioning the character's "filthy habit".

Using a standardized scoring system, this film received a smoking rating of 2 Butts (on a scale of 0-4 Butts). For more information on the impact of onscreen smoking and the initiation of youth tobacco use, or for more information on the rating system, visit www.smokescreeners.org.

Graphic talk about torture.

A helicopter chases two people on a motorbike through streets full with people. The blades of the helicopter are faced to the front and ground and are very close to all the citizens if not hitting some.

A man is killed by a drill torpedo, little blood but graphic sounds and screaming and another man enjoying it.

Several images of dead bodies in a sunk ship appear suddenly which may shock some people.
