Sex & Nudity

Some moderate sexual comments

Violence & Gore

Intense war violence, quite realistic graphic gore in some scenes. Nothing gratuitous but plenty of bloodshed all the same.

Profanity

Contains frequent strong language.

Alcohol, cigarette smoking and marijuana smoking are all depicted.

a scene in which a Vietnamese villager is being tortured by soldiers, especially the conclusion, may be very disturbing to many viewers

one theme of the film is that of some of the soldiers who have been there for as short as two weeks going insane with bloodlust and mental visions. this may be disturbing to many viewers
