A rich male chauvinist (Mel Gibson) obtains the power to
read the minds of women, and opts to use such power to improve his relationships with the
women in his life. Also with Helen Hunt, Lauren Holly, Alan Alda, Marisa Tomei, and Bette
Midler. [2:05]
SEX/NUDITY 7 - Lots of sexual innuendo, including references to
homosexuality, fellatio, and penis size; also, some references to a fifteen year old girl
thinking about having sex for the first time. A few kissing scenes (one time the kissing
is very passionate). A bare-chested man lies on top of a woman in a slip and bra, kissing
her passionately and grabbing her breast briefly (it's implied they are having intercourse
but no thrusting is seen); during the scene, we hear the woman's thoughts about penis size
and how the man is doing. Teenagers are caught making out on a couch; both of their
clothes are disheveled, the girl's bra is on the floor (her father finds it), and the boy
is on top and it appears that his hand is going up her shirt. A man slaps a woman's
clothed behind in two separate scenes (two different couples), a woman looks at a man's
clothed crotch and he thrusts his hips at her, and a man makes a masturbating gesture and
a friend acts as if the fluid has spurt in his eye. A man puts money in a showgirl's
cleavage. We see a man sitting nude (his genitals are covered), scantily clad Vegas
showgirls (no complete nudity is visible), a man's bare chest in a couple of scenes, and
cleavage in a few scenes (with men noticing).
VIOLENCE/GORE 3 - Mostly played for laughs: A man has his leg waxed twice,
and each time he yells, falls backwards and hits a wall. A man with a hair dryer falls
into a bathtub and is jolted by an electric shock (he's not electrocuted but is knocked
out). He receives another non-fatal electric shock during a lightning storm while he's
standing on his balcony. A man is nearly hit by car and later by a bicycle. A woman
crunches the heel of her boot into a man's foot. A woman threatens a man with a tennis
racquet.
PROFANITY 5 - A man begins to say an F-word but doesn't get past the first
letter, many scatological references and anatomical references, some mild obscenities. [profanity glossary]
DISCUSSION TOPICS - Advertising, betrayal, gender differences.
MESSAGE - It's a woman's world now.
