ARENA is a US sci-fi sports action film, from 1989, in which a human becomes an unlikely rising star as he goes up against aliens in a galactic fighting contest.
violence
Sustained moderate scenes of fantastical sporting violence feature punches, kicks, elbows, chokeholds and headbutts between aliens and humans. There is occasional brawling outside the arena, along with laser weapon shoot-outs. An alien character's head explodes in a fantastical scene but any injury detail is obscured by the blast.
sex
There are scenes of kissing, caressing and implied sex; there is fleeting sight of female buttock and breast nudity as a woman dresses following this liaison.
injury detail
There is sight of blood and bruising on both human and alien faces and bodies during fight scenes. We see a small amount of blood on the face of an alien who falls to his death.
additional issues
There are mild scenes of gun threat and characters are restrained and intimidated by a crime boss. A man makes sexist references to the appearance of a woman. Mild bad language includes the terms 'shit', 'damn' and 'hell'.
