Sex and nudity in Disclosure Day

Sexual content is very light. A lead romantic couple shares a brief kiss. In one early scene, a character makes a single brief and suggestive remark alluding to a past sexual encounter.

Violence and gore in Disclosure Day

Violence is moderate throughout, typical of a PG-13 thriller. There are several car chases, one of which ends in a major crash. One scene depicts a character intentionally wounding their own hand with a knife, with some blood shown. Another character is telepathically forced to attack someone. An opening scene features a brief but intense beating in a boxing ring.

Language in Disclosure Day

Language is moderate to strong. The dialogue includes one use of "fuck" and one interrupted use of "what the fu-". Other expletives like "shit" (about 7 times), "hell," and "goddamn" are used occasionally.

Drugs, alcohol, and smoking in Disclosure Day

No on-screen substance use is depicted. One character's past drug use during their college years is briefly mentioned in dialogue but is not shown or glorified.

Mature themes in Disclosure Day

The film explores several mature and intense themes. Core to the plot are ideas of vast government/corporate conspiracies and the paranoia of being hunted. Childhood trauma related to alien abduction is a key plot point, and one character suffers from a realistic panic attack. The concept of mind control being used to force a character to turn on a loved one is also a significant and disturbing element.
