Sex & Nudity

  • A couple make out, they are naked but nothing explicit is shown. Sex is implied.
  • Jenny Hayden is walking around her house wearing only a jumper and panties for quite some time.
  • Jenny is seen in her panties for a very long time. First while she's sleeping and then when she meets the star man. Not sexual, but her thighs and panties are clearly visible.
  • Jenny Hayden is shown sleeping in her underwear.
  • Jeff Bridges, as the alien, stands up after landing on the planet. We see him naked from the back revealing his backside plainly for a few seconds.

Violence & Gore

  • Several men gang up and beat up the Starman with their fists until scared off by a gunshot in the air.
  • Policemen pull upside the Starman's car and shoot at it with a shotgun, blowing out the passenger window and hitting Jenny Hayden. She is shown with blood on her face and a wound in her side (not especially graphic, but might be upsetting for children).
  • The Starman crashes his car into a capsized gas tanker truck causing a huge explosion.

Profanity

  • "Jesus Christ" is mouthed.
  • Not many uses of words like 'Shit' 'Bastard' 'Ass' 'Goddamn' and 'Son of a bitch'.
  • We also see two people gesturing with their middle fingers, once by the Starman who is mimicking another individual and does not understand its meaning.

Alcohol, Drugs & Smoking

  • Jenny smokes cigarettes in her first scene in a Wisconsin cabin and in her last scene in an Arizona diner, but she does not smoke at all for the three days in between. Very unrealistic. Certainly she would smoke at the diner and at the motel.
  • Many characters are seen smoking throughout the movie, including a man who picks up the hitchhiking Starman, and the Starman himself (for comedic effect; attempting to inhale makes him cough very forcefully and make faces of disgust). A SETI scientist following the heroes also smokes a cigar, and at one point blows smoke into the face of the show's primary antagonist.
