Sex & Nudity
Violence & Gore
Profanity
1 to 10

MPAA Rating: PG

Environmental story taking place in Africa, about two teenagers crossing the Kalihari desert on foot, while trying to avoid ivory poachers.

SEX/NUDITY 0 - A few kisses, that's all.

VIOLENCE/GORE 4 - Elephants are mowed down with automatic weapons; a poacher is shot at point blank range. A group of people are slaughtered -- though we only see the results, not the act. A man is caught in a mine explosion. Another man is shot and dropped from a helicopter. Nevertheless, it's all "movie" violence and there's nothing explicit.
