Robert De Niro is a police photographer who inadvertently
saves Bill Murray's life. Murray is a gangster and, out of gratitude sends De Niro a
"thank-you" gift: Uma Thurman. Things get complicated when De Niro and Thurman
fall in love, while Murray wants his "gift" back.
SEX/NUDITY 6 - We briefly see a naked couple through a window (twice). De
Niro and Thurman are shown necking, and then making love. Both are shown topless, and
there's passionate groping, moaning and kissing.
VIOLENCE/GORE 6 - Two men are shot inside a car: blood spatters on the
windows and upholstery. We see a number of bloody, dead bodies, throughout the movie.
Also, rather morbidly, photos of dead bodies at crime scenes decorate De Niro's apartment
(remember, he's a police photographer). There are two fist fights, complete with bloody
noses and split lips. And, a woman is punched by her lover (we don't see it, but we do
hear the noises). She ends up with a black eye.
PROFANITY 6 - Lots of F-words, as well as sexually explicit and scatological
language. [profanity glossary]
DISCUSSION TOPICS - Prostitution and white-slavery, alcohol and drug abuse,
loan-sharking and murder.
MESSAGE - You must take chances and stand up to bullies. Otherwise, you have
already lost.
