violence
One of the central characters is a bully. In this context, there are some mild scuffles, punches and slaps and a scene in which he threatens to assault a young woman. In another scene, a character is seen being shot at by terrorists but he is subsequently shown to have been wearing a bullet-proof vest and is unharmed.
language
There is some mild bad language, including uses of 'shit', 'bastard' and 'bitch'.
sex
There are some mild sex references, most notably when the central character's teenage mother, who does not realise her son has travelled back in time, develops a crush on him. This aspect of the film is treated comically, placing pressure on the character to ensure his parents still fall in love, ensuring his own survival.
discrimination
A black character is referred to as a 'spook', reflecting the period in which the film is set. The use of the term is not endorsed. There is also a sequence in which a character puts on a Spanish accent and mimics Mexicans.
drugs
There is an innocuous reference, in a news report, to cocaine washing up on a beach. At one point, the members of a band are seen smoking and another character refers to them as 'reefer addicts', although what they are smoking is not established.
alcohol and smoking
Adult characters drink alcohol, reflecting the period in which the film is set. An older teenager smokes and drinks but is stopped by another character.
sexual violence and sexual threat
A bully character attempts to assault a young woman in a car but he is stopped before anything can happen.
