Rated R: Sexual Content and Nudity.
There are several sex scenes, though all are quite short and not presented in an erotic way. Breasts are shown briefly in some instances. In one nude pool scene they are visible in a series of moments, though in muted color tones due to the underwater setting; and in another scene a right breast is visible for a longer period, shown from an oblique angle.
