SEX/NUDITY 5 - Many kisses, some passionate; a woman and a shirtless man kiss and briefly lie on top of each other in bed before the scene ends. A man touches a woman's cleavage for a few seconds while kissing her. We briefly see a woman's bare breast as she gets out of bed (a shirtless man is also in the bed) and we see lots of women in cleavage-revealing dresses. In one scene, men with towels wrapped around their waists sit in a sauna.

VIOLENCE/GORE 0 - None.

PROFANITY 2 - Some mild obscenities. [profanity glossary]

DISCUSSION TOPICS - Blackmail, dishonesty, forgiveness, politics, bachelorhood.

MESSAGE - Nobody's perfect; two wrongs don't make a right; most lies and schemes are eventually discovered.
