Sex and nudity in Easter Sunday
There is no nudity or sexual activity. The rating's "suggestive references" note refers to some crude comedic dialogue, including jokes about getting an erection and a character worrying about being shot in the genitals.
Violence and gore in Easter Sunday
Violence is mild and presented in a comedic context. Characters are threatened with guns by a gangster and his crew. There is a short, non-intense chase scene through a mall. The climax involves a tense hostage situation where a teenager is briefly held, which resolves with a single, non-graphic punch that knocks a character out.
Language in Easter Sunday
Language is strong and frequent, representing the main reason for the PG-13 rating. The dialogue includes one use of "fuck," approximately 17 uses of "shit," and other occasional profanity like "ass," "bitch," "damn," and "hell." The term "dick" is also used in a non-sexual, insulting manner.
Drugs, alcohol, and smoking in Easter Sunday
Substance use is light. The main character's fame comes from a beer commercial, and his catchphrase is a recurring joke. Adults drink beer and other alcoholic beverages socially during family gatherings, but no one is shown to be drunk and there is no focus on consumption.
Mature themes in Easter Sunday
The film contains moderate themes of family conflict and personal anxiety. A central plot involves a bitter, long-running feud between Joe's mother and aunt. Joe's relationship with his teenage son is strained due to his work commitments. In a moment of high stress near the end, Joe suffers a panic attack and faints on screen.
