| Message | The movie's main message is that salvation comes in many forms -- and though it might not always be welcome or recognized, given time it can prove to be the only way out. |
| Role model | Father Roselli comes from a place of kindness, but he goes about his mission in an exploitative way. Delicious D isn’t the most sympathetic of characters, but some of his actions are understandable despite how terrible they are. People exploit their spiritual gifts for financial gain. Some think it’s a necessary evil because they do so in the name of helping others, but others are much more brazen about it. |
| Violence | Lots of yelling and screaming fights. One homeless man beats up another. A man sears another man’s arms just to prove a point; another does the same. An important character dies in a very public -- and tragic -- way. |
| Sex | A woman seduces a man by lying on his bed and writhing around. |
| Language | Frequent profanity includes "f--k," "s--t," "damn," and more. |
| Drugs | Lots of drinking (mostly beer), and one character seems strung out much of the time. |
