Sex & Nudity

mild

A woman (Isabelle Adjani) is dressed like a Muslim man to meet a man at the airport. She exposes one breast to show him she is not a Muslim man and needs his help for something. This is very brief and can be easilly missed

Violence & Gore

mild

A shoot-out at the beginning shows a character being killed with some blood, very little, not graphic at all. Some other shoot-outs take place towards the main characters who are attempted to be killed for being potentially involved in a political and communist plot.

Profanity

moderate

Asshole and ass are used sporadically. Shit is said at least half a dozen times. Son of a bitch is used sporadically. A few uses of the Lord's name in vain. 2 f-words.

Alcohol, Drugs & Smoking

mild

Some casual cigarette/cigar smoking, and bar drinking.

Frightening & Intense Scenes

mild

The subplots involving the plans to kill the main characters by the American, and African government, may qualify as intense. There are no frightening scenes at all.
