Sex & Nudity

None
136 of 261 found this to have none
There is a short kissing scene at the beginning between two adults which is broken up by the teenage daughter's entrance.
A guy takes off his shirt after a drink is spilt on him and a girl looks at him suggestively.
A woman tells a man "you tried to sleep with my sister" and he says "unsuccessfully".

Violence & Gore

Moderate
79 of 148 found this moderate
While the tone of the film is much more light-hearted and inviting than the other films in the series, 'Bumblebee' features many sequences of robot on robot violence. Robots are shot, sliced in half, blown up, and the like.
Most violent acts happen against humanoid robotic characters, with characters sustaining fatal injuries including dismemberment, decapitation, and crushing, while non-fatal injuries include characters sustaining damage from falls, torture, gunfire, impalement, and electric shock.
Violent acts against human characters are mostly non-gory and bloodless. People are tossed around by explosions and big robots or are involved in vehiclular collisions, but generally are assumed to have survived with relatively minor injuries, although they do show the end results, like a main character who is injured early and has a scar on his face for the rest of the film, while others have various scratches and bruises, while another has an arm in a sling.
Two human characters are killed onscreen with an alien energy weapon that reduces them to a gelatinous liquid smear.
Possibly the most brutal scene depicts a robot being cut in half lengthwise with a sword, shown in closeup, then the two halves fall to either side.
A robot becomes tangled in chains and is pulled into pieces, exploding. It is mainly played for laughs.

Profanity

Mild
115 of 192 found this mild
Agent Burns and Charlie say the word "shit" a few times.
3 uses of shit, 8 uses of hell, 6 uses of damn, 1 use of dumb-ass, 1 use of Jesus, 1 use of Balls, and Many uses of "God" and "Oh my God".
I quit counting after 20 profanities.

Alcohol, Drugs & Smoking

None
118 of 145 found this to have none

Frightening & Intense Scenes

Mild
81 of 142 found this mild
There are a few intense scenes, as well as character deaths.
This one is less violent and intense than the previous Transformers movies. It is not directed by Michael Bay.
