MyStuff says:

nudity? sexual content? Drug references?
Sounds good to me..

Ron Howard and Tom Hanks miss the boat with this uninspired and flat adaptation of Dan Brown’s controversial bestseller, The Da Vinci Code. It’s sad (even disturbing) to admit but those who’ve banned the film may actually have done potential ticket buyers a favor.

<i>The Da Vinci Code</i> was directed by Ron Howard and is rated PG-13 for disturbing images, violence, some nudity, thematic material, brief drug references and sexual content.</P></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://movies.about.com/od/thedavincicode/fr/davinci051906_2.htm"><P>A dialogue-driven film such as this needs to be punched up; it needs the actors to run with the characters instead of just reciting the script. Instead Hanks delivers a performance that ranks as the most one-dimensional of his critically acclaimed career. The spark’s noticeably missing from this two-time Oscar winner’s performance. Audrey Tautou (adorable in <i>Amelie</i>) is good but  never connects as the French cryptologist and granddaughter of a murder victim. There are even times, unfortunately, when her dialogue is difficult if not impossible to understand.
