Certification
Sex & Nudity
-
- A man and a woman make out in one scene. The shot cuts away when the couple lay down together and sex is implied. No nudity or sex shown.
- It's mentioned twice that a woman had slept with both a man and his father.
Violence & Gore
-
- When young Indy is trying to defend himself from the lion with the bullwhip, he inadvertently lashes a bloody scar on his chin.
- Indy fights several attackers on a speedboat, and one boat crashes into the propellor of a much larger boat.
- 60 deaths in total.
- A man is decapitated, and his head rolls toward the camera (no blood).
- A man is shot in the head and blood dribbles down his face, we see the bullet stuck in his forehead.
- Indy shoots through three Nazis with a powerful pistol; bloody bullet holes are seen in each of their backs.
- A group of men is gunned down by the Nazis; we see one of them laying on the ground with many patches of blood on his clothes.
- Indy guns down two Nazis with no blood.
- A man is thrown under a moving tank tread, but his actual death is not shown.
- Several soldiers in a car get stuck on the turret of a tank, a colonel orders to shoot the car off the tank with living soldiers still inside, and then the tank flattens the remains of the car with the men inside.
- Indy and several men engage in a brutal fight on top of a tank.
Profanity
-
- 2x "Hell"
- 3x "Damn"
- God is invoked a few times ("Dear God", "My God", etc.), and "Jesus Christ" is invoked once.
- 1x "Son of a Bitch"
Alcohol, Drugs & Smoking
-
- There is very limited alcoholic or drug use in the film. Elsa lights a cigarette on one scene and champagne or wine is drank in an early scene of the movie.
Frightening & Intense Scenes
-
- Those who find rats revolting may find one scene disgusting.
Spoilers
Violence & Gore
- A woman deliberately gives a man the wrong cup, claiming it is the Holy Grail. Upon drinking from it, the man ages rapidly, his skin rots, his eyes shrink into their sockets, and his hair grows long. Then he turns into a skeleton and shatters on the wall.
- Donovan shoots Henry in the stomach and a large amount of blood soaks through his shirt. He narrowly avoids bleeding to death until Indy comes to his aide with the Grail.
- A man is standing atop a tank as it falls over a large cliff, and we see a closeup of his screaming face as he falls. Then we briefly see him rolling under the tank as it lands, although it's not particularly realistic as it's merely a shot of a small puppet/doll and a miniature tank.
Frightening & Intense Scenes
- Indiana is forced to go through a path laid with deadly traps with only his father's research diary to provide him clues of how to overcome them. These include spinning blades that must be dodged being in a supplicant position, a path laden dead drop covered by fragile tiles while the safe tiles are marked by the letters of the name of God in Greek. Finally, the last test is to take a leap of faith over a chasm with seemingly no bridge; Indiana takes an apparently suicidal step, and promptly steps on a stone bridge that visually blends in with the rock face so thoroughly, it is essentially invisible from where Indy was standing.
- The major and perhaps most intense/frightening scene is that of the villain's death where he rapidly ages. This means that his skin rots in seconds, his hair grows and falls off, and his entire body eventually becomes a dying skeleton. His voice also becomes deep and gravelly and his eyes bulge.
