Sex & Nudity
-
- Women's breasts are seen many times in scenes that last a while. At a party scene some women are seen fully nude, front and rear, briefly, although one is covered by a skin-toned vulva patch. A man's rear is visible during a short sex scene.
- Two men and two women wake up together in bed, unclothed, but no private parts are seen.
- Mario Van Peebles, now an adult portraying his father Melvin thirty years earlier, fends off arguments that it is inappropriate for Mario at age 13 to take part in a sex scene where he loses his virginity. Mario (as Melvin) points out that the sex is faked, it's acting. The original scene is neither shown nor replicated in "Baadasssss!".
Violence & Gore
-
- Several minutes of historical real video clips show violence against African-Americans, including a close view of a lynched man hanging in a noose, police beating non-violent protestors, police dogs being set on civilians, and marchers being assaulted with the torrent from fire hoses.
- Some scenes from the subject film are shown, including brief beatings, a pistol fired next to a man's ear which begins bleeding, and dogs set free to chase down a man.
Profanity
-
- Frequent, with much use of "fuck" and "motherfucker".
Alcohol, Drugs & Smoking
-
- Beer and other alcoholic beverages are mentioned and consumed. A character is frequently seen with a cigar, usually unlit, in his mouth. Other characters smoke cigarettes occasionally.
Frightening & Intense Scenes
-
- Scenes of historical real violence and murder are distressing but brief. Some arguments are heated.
Spoilers
Violence & Gore
- Police arrest the film crew forcefully.
