Sex & Nudity

Mild
74 of 146 found this mild
Woman is under the sheets of a bed and it's implied she's been having sex with a man.
Woman is found in a bed and sex with her boyfriend is implied. Later there are two sensual scenes where the boyfriend is kissing under her bra strap and in the other he has her dress completely unbuttoned in the front and the boyfriend is jokingly playing with food by her bra. The camera zooms in on this. There is also a scene at a club with women in very revealing outfits and the scene is meant to be erotic.
About 55 minutes in, there is a scene in a strip club where multiple women are shown in thongs and bras with very little material. Much of the stripper's bodies are shown. The scene lasts a little over a minute.

Violence & Gore

Moderate
46 of 70 found this moderate
Most of the violence isn't human on human, but instead involves massive destruction and millions of implied deaths.
Asteroid chunks hit a satellite and the man working on it. The man is then briefly seen cut in half (his lower half is shown briefly with some blood).
Although played for humour, Harry chases A.J. around the oil rig, firing a shotgun at him (and blowing out windows, etc.)
An asteroid falls to Shanghai,China drowning a lot of people.
A major meteor takes down Paris with a ground waved smash heading toward the screen. This is the most disasterous and intense scene in this movie.

Profanity

Moderate
53 of 83 found this moderate
1 use of "fucking", 6 uses of "shit" (1 used as "bullshit"), 16 uses of "hell", 7 uses of "ass", 9 uses of "damn", 10 uses of "goddamn", 2 uses of "bitch", 1 use of "son of a bitch", 4 uses of "Jesus". However this film was originally stated to be lots and lots and lots and lots of swearing and make it rated R.
Mild to sometimes moderate language throughout. However It was originally intended to have severe to too extreme language in the uncensored version of this movie which was originally supposed to be Rated R with extreme violent language and extremely super duper trooper looper offensive swearing and lots of cus words.
Gd said a lot.

Alcohol, Drugs & Smoking

Mild
47 of 64 found this mild
Rockhound has drinks with a woman in a bar, and we later see others having drinks in a strip club.

Frightening & Intense Scenes

Moderate
44 of 66 found this moderate
The overall concept is about impending doom via a large and fast approaching asteroid. Likewise, they may find the mayhem- filled scenes -- where "smaller" chunks of it impact in different cities, presumably killing many people -- just as scary or unnerving.
Near the beginning, New York is pelted by rocks from space. A building collapses with many screaming people falling at high speed past the camera to their deaths.
There are a couple of highly emotional scenes towards the end of the film especially one where a character is saying goodbye to the other characters.
