Why We Rated This

What to watch out for

• Messages:

  Although the lead characters lead pretty vacuous lives in pursuit of superficial happiness, one of them appears to undergo an epiphany of sorts. Definitely sends some mixed messages about the importance and significance of sex, as well as what love means.
• Role models :

  The lead characters are pretty selfish, opportunistic, and materialistic, though they all undergo a certain amount of change (some more than others). Sex is treated casually (the main character is basically a gigolo).
• Violence:

  Two friends have a falling out; one throws the other’s belongings from a terrace, and they shout at each other. Couples argue, sometimes explosively. A woman slaps a man’s face.
• Sex:

  Sexuality is a main theme of the movie, and there are explicit sex scenes throughout. Breasts and behinds are bared (sometimes in close-up), and couples are shown in various sexual positions. A man and woman bathe together. Fairly detailed discussion of a medical procedure known as vaginal rejuvenation.
• Language:

  Fairly frequent use of everything from “s--t” and "f--k" to “a--hole."
• Consumerism:

  Characters are hung up on status symbols, including Mercedes Benz cars and Hermes, and will do pretty much anything to maintain a lifestyle that can support their consumerism/materialism.
• Drinking, drugs, & smoking:

  Some characters smoke, and there’s a fair amount of drinking at parties.
