Sex & Nudity
Violence & Gore
Profanity
1 to 10

MPAA Rating: R

Odd-ball comedy about divorce with Denis Leary as a jewel thief who kidnaps a feuding couple and becomes an unlikely marriage counselor.

SEX/NUDITY 1 - A few sexual references but never the act itself.

VIOLENCE/GORE 3 - Leary takes some hostages, breaks into houses, is confronted by a big, drooling dog. There is nothing particularly violent and there is no gore. Leary does flash his gun around quite a bit and threatens to kill people, but it's always in a mocking tone.

PROFANITY 8 - Every other word out of Leary's mouth is an F-word. Also scatological language and milder profanities. [profanity glossary]

DISCUSSION TOPICS - Divorce, marriage counseling, blackmail, dysfunctional families, a life of crime.

MESSAGE - If your marriage is on the rocks, don't waste your money on a marriage counselor -- befriend a thief instead.

Special Keywords: S1 - V3 - P8 - MPAAR
