-
- 1 uses of Fuck.
Alcohol, Drugs & Smoking
-
- Heavy smoking takes place at a bar. The air is thick with smoke.
- The guys smoke and drink alot.
Frightening & Intense Scenes
-
- For anyone uneasy about big storms or becoming seasick, most of the entire second half of the film concerns various characters caught in a ferocious storm (with gargantuan, rolling & crashing waves) and plenty of shots of rocking boats in such seas.
- Animal rights supporters might not like the commercial fishing scenes showing large fish being pulled into the boat via hooks, gutted and later seen beheaded (not the actual act, just the look afterwards).
- The crew unknowingly pulls a huge shark onboard and it thrashes about and repeatedly tries biting Bobby, eventually getting his leg. Billy then shows up, and kills the shark with a shotgun blast.
- A hook goes through Murph's hand, yanks him overboard and drags him under the water (it's attached to a line extending from the boat). Sully and Bobby then dive in and swim underwater, trying to reach him before he drowns (in a several minute sequence).
- We see a small sailboat being tossed about in the middle of a storm. Later, the huge waves flip it over.
- A huge, rogue wave hits the fishing boat.
- The movie has an intense atmosphere, especially in the last hour and there are certain scenes that are scary for younger or sensitive viewers.
Spoilers
Violence & Gore
- A shark comes onto the deck of a boat and bites a man on the leg leaving a bloody cut.
- The shark is hooked many times and is shot with a shotgun.
- A man has a hook go through his hand, is tugged underwater by the hook line and nearly drowns; there is some blood on his hand and then the hook is pushed through his hand in order to remove it.
- (in one scene many people are shown in a boat filling up with water and they either can't or won't disembark).
Frightening & Intense Scenes
- The film features a very bleak ending where the Andrea Gail is lost at sea with all hands. The fact the individuals lost were real people makes this even more upsetting.
