Sex & Nudity
-
- Some boys who've never seen a dark-skinned person before ask a black man if he is black all over his body and if his private parts are black too.
- A married woman tells her husband that she'll think about him before she goes to sleep at night, and he replies that if she does she won't sleep.
- At one point, the boys discuss the first time they saw a naked woman.
- Two of the cowboys have a run-in with some scantily dressed women who turn out to be a troupe of prostitutes.
Violence & Gore
-
- A man is stabbed. A man is clubbed to death with rifles. Two men engage in a brutal fistfight. A man is shot multiple times all over his body and slowly bleeds to death. A young boy is trampled by stampeding cattle. A young boy is roughly treated by some men, a knife having been held to his throat and him strangled a little bit. Several men are shot at close range. A man is dragged to death by a running horse.
- The kill count is fifteen total.
Profanity
-
- One of the characters insults another's mother with the Spanish variation of whore.
- 8 uses of 'Son of a Bitch' 2 uses of 'Bastard', 3 uses of 'Shit', and 2 faint f-words.
- 2 uses of tits, and 1 reference to the middle finger.
- Fairly frequent use of mild curse words like "hell", "damn", and "God". Also, some crass words and phrases, such as "ass", "goddamn", and "old iron nuts" A black character is called a "nigger" several times throughout.
Alcohol, Drugs & Smoking
-
- A group of boys steal a bottle of whiskey and get drunk, consuming nearly half of the bottle's material.
Frightening & Intense Scenes
-
- The first is a group of outlaws taking over a herd of cattle and severely wounding the trail boss. The second is the cowhands taking revenge on the outlaws and retaking the herd. The leader of the gang of outlaws is vicious throughout the film.
- MPAA ratings on the home video casings state "GP" (which was the earlier version of the modern PG rating), though by today's standards, the intensity of some of the more violent and dramatic moments would place the rating around PG-13 bordering on R.

Frightening & Intense Scenes
- A young boy is killed in a stampede, which can be emotionally distressful. Along with Will Andersen, the main character, he is killed in a shootout, which is very sad & brutal (he has bloody wounds). The scene with group of men physically harassing one of the cowboys is somewhat disturbing.
