Common Sense Note

Parents need to know that, overall, the content of this sweet romantic comedy is tamer than not. There are some allusions to infidelity (though viewers don't see it happening), a bit of social drinking, a few jokes about prescription drug abuse, and some fairly infrequent swearing (including "f--k" and "s--t"), but there's no nudity, and the film has an upbeat, hopeful message in the end. That said, one of the main character is a ghost, and some of the discussions about death might be upsetting for young or particularly sensitive kids.

Sexual Content

A man talks about having a mistress, but viewers don't see them together. Some jokes about a mummy's private parts; one of the minor ghosts is naked, but nothing sensitive is shown.

Violence

Buses hit people head-on, but viewers don't see any gore. Some discussion about how certain people have died. Some yelling.

Language

Not particularly frequent use, but some strong words, including "f--k," "s--t," "ass," and "goddamn."

Social Behavior

Portrays a heartfelt transformation of a malcontent into a giving person. But before he changes, he's quite nasty: He's rude to patients, colleagues, and neighbors. At first, a man seems cavalier about his infidelity. There's a plot to deceive a woman, though there's some remorse after it happens.

Consumerism

Signage for New York City buses, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, Bulgari. One character holds a BlackBerry and talks of it wistfully.

Drugs / Tobacco / Alcohol

Some discussion of prescription drugs and jokes about abusing them. Some social drinking.
