Back To The Future

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.

There is some mild bad language, including uses of 'shit', 'bastard' and 'bitch'.

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.

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.
