Sex & Nudity

mild

At the spa, the back side of a woman wearing thongs can be seen. Lee takes Carter to a spa for a massage. Doors are opened to expose a collection of scantily clad women, mostly in bras and bra-like tops, and Carter is told to pick any woman he wants for himself and his friend. He scans the women and one of them lifts her breasts up with her hands briefly, and he picks her. He then goes on to pick several more women, who are each shown wearing little and exposing cleavage. While Lee and Carter are at the spa, fighting Ricky Tan's men, Carter pulls off a towel from on of Ricky's men and you can briefly see his butt. He then covers his front with a box but Carter disarms it and says "No wonder you mad!". This is for comedic effect. Lee and Carter have been thrown out on the streets naked but you can't really see because the camera's view is too far away and they are only shown from the back. Lee and Carter spy on a woman who is getting undressed down to her bra and underwear. Lee looks and acts aroused and says some suggestive things. She later puts on a robe but opens it up and stands in front of them while talking with her bra and underwear exposed. Carter is noticeably staring at her body as she talks with a grin on his face. Some mild sexual references are thrown here and there, especially by Carter. Lee and Carter buy their clothes from a stereotypically gay man who dresses in tight clothes, speaks in a high voice, and talks about "smacking their little bottoms."
