Sex & Nudity

No explicit nudity, but little is left to the imagination with multiple shots of women in lingerie, cleavage baring outfits, etc. A few scenes in a shop-type venue, with many models in extreme lingerie. This is partially prevalent throughout the movie as people make robot to look hotter than themselves.

A man and woman passionately kiss outside. Slightly sexual moaning and foreplay.

One reference to male genitalia

Violence & Gore

People are living their lives through robot surrogates. Many times the robots lose limbs, are hit by cars, and shot. Their insides are all metal and oil.

People are shown dead with blood coming out of their eyes

Surrogates are seen getting fried by a machine, blowing out their eyes and killing their owners. Blood is present and seen on the owners.

One man takes poison and kills himself.

One Surrogate gets shot in the head and the green "blood" is graphic.

A woman is seen on a video screen in lingerie being hit and thrown around by two surrogates. The two surrogates are remotely disabled and she runs away.

Some fist fights.

Surrogates are killed throughout the film.

Profanity

A few "damns" and "hells" A term for male genitalia is used. No f-words. Maybe an occasional S-word.

Some operators take anti-depressants

One takes poison.

No alcohol or smoking because everybody is using their robots. In fact i believe their only liquid shown is water, and robot oil.

People use an bong-shaped electrode that they use on their robot surrogates to stimulate their senses. Like drugs for robots.

Robots are overloaded and their eyes explode out.

Operator of a woman robot turns out to be a man.

There are a few scenes where the surrogates' faces are taken off and metallic skulls are left.
