Common Sense Note

Parents need to know that this film has many sexual references, a torrent of profanity, nasty insults (including fat jokes and racial epithets), and a misguided obsession with flatulence. The anally-fixated script, which is packed with smutty double entendres and jokes about "colon cleansing," may delight twelve-year-old boys, but parents may well be horrified that this is what now passes for family entertainment in Hollywood.

Sexual Content

Buddy picks up three tramps and takes him back to his apartment for a wild orgy. The next morning they're all shown sleeping together in his bed. References to penises, breasts, and oral sex.

Violence

Buddy punches a lab assistant a few times.

Language

Lots of crude language for a PG-13

Social Behavior

Many fat jokes and racial epithets. Lots of nasty insults, flatulence jokes, and smutty double entendres.
