Keanu Reeves and Charlize Theron team up in this romantic
drama about a workaholic man
and a woman who fears commitment. When the two meet they uncover
many unresolved emotional issues and, of course, fall in love. Also with Frank Langella,
Liam Aiken, Greg Germann, Lauren Graham and Jason Isaacs. [1:57]
SEX/NUDITY 4 - Lots of sexual innuendo, including references to
homosexuality, a threesome, and flashing. A few scenes of mild and passionate kissing. We
see a man and woman lying in bed together, obviously nude (only bare shoulders seen
though). We see a man in the shower from the middle of his torso up. A couple kiss
passionately as he tries to undress the woman but she stops him after they fall onto the
couch kissing. We see a woman's nipples through her camisole. In one scene a couple are
kissing and bathing in the bathtub, but we only see her bare shoulders and his chest. We
see a couple having sex and can tell he is thrusting below the camera frame; we see their
heads and shoulders only, although they are obviously nude. We see a woman in her bra and
panties. There are four scenes showing a man's bare chest. There are two transvestites
(the fact that they are transvestites surprises a dinner guest). A hot dog is used as a
phallic symbol in an ad campaign.
VIOLENCE/GORE 2 - We see a spot of blood on a man's hand after he brushes
glass bottles to the floor; later we see a spot of blood on his bandage. A woman throws
pill bottles at a man and then falls to the floor. A couple of men scuffle.
PROFANITY 4 - Many mild obscenities and scatological references, some
anatomical references. [profanity glossary]
DISCUSSION TOPICS - Workaholics, falling in love, dying.
MESSAGE - Live life to its fullest.

A CAVEAT: We've gone through several editorial changes since we started covering films in 1992 and some of our early standards were not as stringent as they are now. We therefore need to revisit many older reviews, especially those written prior to 1998 or so; please keep this in mind if you're consulting a review from that period. While we plan to revisit and correct older reviews our resources are limited and it is a slow, time-consuming process. |
