Sex and nudity in Table 19
Sexual content is moderate. There are two brief instances of non-sexual rear male nudity as a character climbs a ladder. A couple is seen kissing in a shower, though their bodies are obscured by an opaque door. Characters kiss, and there are conversations about crushes, past relationships, and a character who intended to have an affair at the wedding. A central plot point involves an unplanned pregnancy.
Violence and gore in Table 19
Violence is nearly absent. The most significant moment is comedic and accidental, when two characters argue and inadvertently knock over and destroy the large wedding cake. In another scene, a married couple makes a brief, hostile hand gesture at each other during an argument. There is no other fighting, gore, or threatening behavior.
Language in Table 19
Language is a strong element leading to the PG-13 rating. The film contains one fully spoken and one partially obscured f-word. There are also over 20 uses of "s--t," five uses of "asshole," one use of "dickhead," and frequent misuse of God's name (around 25 times) and one use of Jesus' name.
Drugs, alcohol, and smoking in Table 19
Substance use is present. One character, who has a terminal illness, smokes marijuana from a pipe for medicinal purposes but then shares it with several other adult characters in a social setting. Adults are also seen drinking wine, champagne, and other alcoholic beverages throughout the wedding reception.
Mature themes in Table 19
The film deals with several heavy topics. Central themes include coping with a terminal illness and impending death, an unplanned pregnancy and the relationship conflict it causes, marital strife and discussion of infidelity, and the loneliness of social rejection. One character also discusses his criminal past and time in prison.
