Sex and nudity in A Millionaire's First Love

Sexual content is mild. The main characters share a few kisses which are not prolonged or intimate. In one scene, they lie down next to each other but remain fully clothed. There is also a brief, comical moment where a character wakes up to find a woman in a nightdress in his bed, but nothing occurred.

Violence and gore in A Millionaire's First Love

Violence is moderate and infrequent. An early scene depicts a stylized nightclub fight, but the action is blurred and no blood is shown. In another scene, a character punches someone in the face; the impact is not shown, but the injured person is later seen with a swollen face. The violence is not graphic or glorified.

Language in A Millionaire's First Love

Language is infrequent but can be strong in some subtitled versions. Profanity is reportedly used, with instances of words like 'shit'. One use of 'fuck' is reported during a moment of intense emotional distress.

Drugs, alcohol, and smoking in A Millionaire's First Love

There are several scenes of teen substance use, mostly in the beginning of the film to establish the protagonist's reckless lifestyle. Characters are shown drinking alcohol at a nightclub and smoking cigarettes on a few occasions. Later in the film, there is some incidental social drinking by adults.

Mature themes in A Millionaire's First Love

The film's most significant content concern is its thematic material. The central plot deals directly with terminal illness, facing mortality at a young age, and the resulting grief and loss. The death of a main character is a key plot point and is handled in an emotionally intense manner. The protagonist's journey from materialism to empathy is also a core theme.
