SCREEN IT! PARENTAL REVIEW: AEON FLUX (3035 words)
Aeon passionately kisses a man, but does so in order to allow him to pass a small capsule (that will enable her to communicate with The Handler) from his mouth to hers (we see a close-up of her tongue entering his mouth and retrieving that capsule).
Aeon wears a formfitting cat suit that shows off the curves of her body, but beyond a brief view of her butt (from below) as she ascends a ladder, that look is not sexualized too much.
Aeon calls for a number of her ball bearing type objects to assemble outside the cell where she's being held and then blow a hole in the wall, which they do.
