Since the beliefs that parents want to instill in their children can vary greatly, we ask that instead of adding your personal opinions about what is right or wrong in a film, that you instead use this feature to help parents make informed viewing decisions by describing the facts of relevant scenes in the title for each one of the different categories: Sex and Nudity, Violence and Gore, Profanity, Alcohol/Drugs/Smoking, and Frightening/Intense Scenes.
Visit our Parents Guide Help to learn more

Sex & Nudity

Irina Spalko turns a sexual innuendo into a taunt during her duel with Mutt Williams.

Viewers are introduced to Mutt Williams, who it turns out is the out-of-wedlock son of Indy from a prior relationship with Mutt's mother. Indy and Mutt's mother Marion discuss their prior relationship and how she married Mutt's dad after Indy left her. Mutt is unaware of the relationship until Indy and his mother tell him.

Violence & Gore

Some violent/creepy themes including Russians killing Americans, and disrupting mummified corpses to find an Alien Skull made entirely of Crystal.

Some on-screen deaths, some off screen. The ones on-screen are somewhat rough.

The opening scene of the movie involves a group of Russians dressed like Americans killing a group of American soldiers....all of it is off-screen, but the next scene shows their dead bodies.

A group of Russian Soldiers kill Ancient Temple Guards (off-screen, but the bodies are shown)

One character is revealed to be working with both sides, and one character asks how many men had to die at his hands.

Lots of punching and kicking literally....some characters are shown bloody after a fight (but survive just fine).

Several scenes with knife and gun-play (but without almost any blood as a result of gun shots)

Some smaller children may not like the "ants" or the "aliens", and that the lead villain is killed by the Aliens as she explodes on-screen..

Some ancient dead bodies are shown, one man was well preserved and when the wrapping comes off...he disintegrates on-screen

Lots of jokes about dead bodies. In one scene Indy says "hold this" and throws a mummified corpse at his friend; a close up of the dead face is shown. This scene can be shocking in a 'jumpy' kind of way.

One of the villains is killed by a huge swarm of ants several inches long. They swarm in to his open mouth as he screams. They carry him across the ground and suck him head-first into a massive ant hill, still screaming. The ant sequence lasts a couple of minutes and could be quite disturbing.

Another Russian soldier (the one traveling with Spalko) is covered head to toe with giant red ant's in a brief shot, we are to assume he died.

Indy kills a man by forcing a blow dart back into his mouth. This is sudden, and rather disturbing.

Profanity

Brief. Couple of "Son of Bi**hes" a couple of the word "S**t" and a many uses of "oh my god"

Brief.

The ending on-screen death is pretty sudden, though not gory, as the main villain disintegrates on-screen at the hands of a creepy-looking Alien.

The scene with the ants will freak some people out.

Several dead bodies are shown.

Lots of skeletons.

The opening scene in which guards are gunned down in cold blood may be upsetting and offensive.

In a graveyard, we see walking skeletons, but it turns out to be natives. These natives attack Indy and Mutt. This scene can be frightening to some.

The aliens can be frightening, and the entire opening sequence may be slightly disturbing. We see men incinerated in the blast of a rocket sled firing up.
