Father Stu

Parents need to know that Father Stu is a biopic about Stuart "Stu" Long (Mark Wahlberg), a former boxer who decided to become a priest and was then diagnosed with a progressive muscle disorder called inclusion body myositis. While it's clearly meant to be inspirational, the movie is instead abrasive and irritating, with a lot of mature content. Violence includes a graphic traffic accident: A man is thrown from a motorcycle and then run over by a car, sustaining bloody wounds. There are also violent boxing sequences with more blood, and Stu punches several people (and objects). Extremely strong language includes "f--k," "s--t," the "N" word, and more. Stu drinks beer, gets drunk, and drives, and a secondary character is said to have an alcohol dependency (there's a scene at an AA meeting). Characters smoke cigarettes, and there are sexual situations, sex-related dialogue, flirting, kissing, etc.
