Sex & Nudity

  • Frequent examples of sexuality and nudity.
  • The French king has two young nude angels carrying his crown with visible penises.
  • A Turkish soldier is shown raping a Frenchwoman multiple times.
  • The movie starts out with the hero seducing and making love with his girlfriend, which is censored through suggestive, abstract imagery (doves making love, hills rising, flowers blooming, etc).

Violence & Gore

  • Stylized, cartoony violence against invading Turks, monsters, demons and other fantasy creatures. Hungarian hussars mow down the Turkish army, though most gory acts are played for laughs.

Profanity

Alcohol, Drugs & Smoking

  • Multiple scenes feature drinking alcohol. At one point, the hero waits for the bandits to get drunk so he can steal their loot.

Frightening & Intense Scenes

  • The film contains many scenes that kids may find frightening, though the artstyle is deliberately heavily stylized and not realistic.

Spoilers

Sex & Nudity

  • The demons and witches in Hell have visible butts, breasts and nipples.
  • A red skinned devil is shown to be the leader of the demons and witches and like them, he is shown to be naked. At one scene he is seen sitting on a cauldron while making a strained face along with a noise that sounds like flatulence, implying that he defecated into the cauldron. During that scene, his buttocks can be seen.

Violence & Gore

  • The Turks' leader is sliced in half with visible innards. The scene is however comical, since both halves stay alive and hop away.
  • The main character is ingested by a dragon but he manages to locate the dragon's heart and constrict its blood flow with his arms, giving the dragon a heart attack. It is implied but not shown that the dragon is killed by this at the next scene instantly has the main character walking around a magical fairy realm.

Frightening & Intense Scenes

  • The hero has to descend to Hell where he faces the Devil and battles a horde of demons and witches in a very intense and surreal scene.
