Friends, family and lovers are tangled in a web of lust,
greed and deception in this erotic thriller. With Patricia Arquette, Dermot Mulroney,
Mary-Louise Parker, Ellen DeGeneres, Ray McKinnin, Don Johnson, Andre Gregory, Barry
Newman and Vincent Gallo. [1:42]
SEX/NUDITY 7 - Sexual innuendo (including some references to oral sex) and
many kisses (most are passionate). A woman has a phone-sex conversation (she doesn't say
anything explicit). A woman's panties fall around her ankles, a man licks her bare legs
and we then see her thrusting on top of him (no nudity is evident). A man and woman move
rhythmically and moan pleasurably (we see his bare chest and her bare back). We hear
people having sex and see a woman's legs and head sticking up from behind a couch as she's
thrusting (her partner isn't seen). We see a woman's bare bottom, and a man with his
boxers around his ankles; we then hear them having intercourse and we briefly see her bare
breast as she's lying in bed afterwards. A man and woman start untucking and unzipping
clothing and caressing each other as they kiss passionately (only the side of her bare
buttocks and legs are visible). A man feels a woman's breast underneath her dress and a
woman briefly caresses a man's clothed knee and thigh. We see some leather S&M outfits
hanging in a closet and several women in bras and panties, corsets and cleavage-revealing
tops. We also see a man wearing a dress shirt only.
VIOLENCE/GORE 6 - Someone is shot; we see lots of blood on the person's body
and on a glass window as the person slides down. Someone is pushed off a balcony and falls
into a pool; in a later scene, we see his corpse being pulled out of the bloody water. A
person is stabbed in the back with a syringe. A man grabs a woman and tries to suffocate
her; as she struggles to get away, she hits and breaks some mirrors. A man tied upside
down by his feet is hit with a bat a few times; a woman's legs and feet are bound in one
scene. A man trashes his office, a woman slaps a man and two people briefly scuffle. We
see a few corpses and a few body bags (a charred hand is briefly seen before one of the
bags is zipped); in one scene, an autopsy is being performed and when a man drills into
the bloody corpse, blood splatters on another's face. Two motorcycle riders are bumped off
the road by a car and we see them roll down a cliff. One instance of threatening with a
gun.
PROFANITY 10 - About 50 F-words, several anatomical references, many
scatological references, lots of mild obscenities and several insults. [profanity glossary]
DISCUSSION TOPICS - Infidelity, insurance fraud, sexual fantasies, murder,
betrayal, deception, greed.
