Parents guide

Sex is implied.

Mild kissing.

There is one intimate sex scene between Hazel and Gus. They kiss and she removes his shirt. She then takes off her shirt and bra and is seen topless from the back. Her breasts are shown for a split-second and Gus is shown caressing her breasts.

A blind teen describes the size of a girl's breasts.

Hazel's mother is wrapped in a towel after a shower in one scene.

In the beginning there is a teen boy and a teen girl (Monica) kissing passionately beside the car fully clothed. Occasionally the boy reaches the girl's clothed breast and squeeze the breast on top of her tank top. Afterwards Hazel makes a comedic remark about the boy reaching for the girl's breast.

Gus talks about how he's in a circle of virgins, which seemed like he was hinting to Hazel he wants to have sex.

Gus and Hazel kiss in a few scenes.

There is 1 intimate scene on a bed where we see the boy's bare chest and the girl's back as she takes off her bra. Sex is very clearly implied, but not explicitly shown.

A group of teens egg a car as an act of revenge.

An 18-year old ex-basketball player is in remission from his osteosarcoma, but had lost one leg from the knee, down; we see the artificial limb several times and once the boy shows it to a man and says, "I didn't have this (leg) removed for the hell of it."

Video clips of WWII German wagons filled with dead bodies under tarps play in a display (we see some feet) in the Anne Frank House museum.

Gus and Hazel go to Gus's house where they meet his parents and descend some stairs that make her breathe heavily and on the wall is a sign with silhouettes of a cow and a car hitting head-on.

Issac throws a fit and is seen violently breaking trophies. This is more comical because it's in the background of Hazel and Gus having a normal conversation despite the rage in the background.

The F-bomb is, in separate scenes, uttered once and seen once (very briefly and you need to have a quick eye for it).

Some Swedish profanity in a rap song.

Hazel calls VanHouten "douche pants."

1 brief use of "balls" when referring to a man with testicular cancer.

A few uses of words like "hell" and "shit"

Hazel wears a tshirt with a tobacco pipe on it however tobacco use is not implied as it is a reference to a painting by Renè Magritte.

A swedish rap song mentions snus which is a form of chewing tobacco.

Hazel is prescribed anti depressants.

Augustus buys cigarettes, and "doesn't smoke" them. He says it's a metaphor and that "you put the thing that does the killing right between your teeth, and never give it the power to kill you." (So he "smokes" unlit cigarettes) He has one in his mouth on a plane and he is told to put it away.

Hazel and Gus drink champagne.

Hazel is seen taking multiple drugs for medical use.

It is heavily implied that Van Houten is an alcoholic.

There is a brief innocuous reference to illegal drug use.

There's an anticipation of death throughout the movie that can be very upsetting to those with health anxiety.

This film can be very emotional to viewers who have lost someone to cancer.

The overall theme of the film is a little heavy: disability, cancer, death, etc.
