A thief (Martin Lawrence) and the billionaire (Danny
DeVito) he tried to rob engage in a titanic tit-for-tat battle over a
"good-luck" ring the billionaire steals from the thief. Also with John
Leguizamo, Glenne Headly and William Fichtner. [1:34]
SEX/NUDITY 5 - A man acts out sex by thrusting his hips and wiggling. There
is a lot of sexual innuendo and references to sex (including homosexual sex): a man
mistakenly thinks another man is propositioning him and is interested, a man shows
interest in another man, a man plays a game with a woman in a bathtub and it is implied
that he uses his hand to satisfy her, a man loads a gun and expresses his arousal. There's
a really quick scene that shows a man and woman presumably having sex on an elevator with
the woman moaning and calling the man's name. A man throws himself on a woman on a couch
and kisses her; she shows interest for a moment and then throws him onto the floor. There
is a scene showing a woman with really large breasts in a little, tiny top leaning over a
man and massaging him. A man does a dance in his boxer shorts and tuxedo jacket and then
jumps into bed with a woman. A man and woman are shown in bed presumably after having had
sex; we see the woman's bare shoulders and they kiss a couple of times. There are a few
other scenes showing couples kissing. A couple flirts in several scenes. A man looks at a
Playboy in the bathroom while Miss September is in a tub full of bubbles (we see her bare
shoulders and knees popping out through the bubbles). A woman is seen fresh out of a
bathtub with bare soggy shoulders; she covers herself with a towel. A woman bends over and
a man ogles her behind. A woman is seen in a halter dress exposing some cleavage, a woman
is seen in a bathrobe and skimpy nightie and many women are seen in evening gowns with
bare shoulders, backs and cleavage.
VIOLENCE/GORE 3 - A man shoots at a man several times. A man jumps out of
the window of a moving car and lands hard on the street. Two men wrestle, one man pours
wine on the other, one man jumps across dining tables and flips a security guard onto the
ground. Two men wrestle on a boat and it runs into things and eventually begins sinking. A
woman uses mace to spray several men pointing guns at her. A man threatens a burglar with
a gun, a man is hit in the crotch by a tennis ball, and a man is hit in the face by a
door. A woman slaps a man in the face twice. A large group of people in a tent stampede
out when smoke fills the air and people yell fire. A man yells at other people a lot. A
man pretends to beat himself up. A dog passes gas a few times.
PROFANITY 7 - One F-word, about 15 scatological terms (3 of which are seen
in handwritten letters), one reference to urination, about 13 sexual terms, 19 anatomical
references, 31 mild profanities, a lot of namecalling and 12 religious profanities. The
following were used in a TV broadcast and were bleeped but were obvious nevertheless: 8
F-words, one scatological term, 3 anatomical terms and one mild profanity. This scene also
includes a woman translating obscene terms in sign language, using all of the applicable
obscene hand and body gestures. [profanity glossary]
DISCUSSION TOPICS - Stereotypes, stealing (burglarizing and robbing, as well
as stealing as a business), bankruptcy, bribery, infidelity, proving one's love, mysticism
(tarot cards, good luck baubles).
MESSAGE - Everybody's in on the game.
(Note: One character is portrayed, in a stereotypical and extreme manner, as being
gay by the way he dresses, his gestures and his interests: he is particularly fond of
Bichon Frise dogs and he is particularly interested in figure skating, for example. Other
characters refer to him as being weird.)
