Sex & Nudity
-
- A character has sex with a female resistance fighter (extended version only).
- Frequent sexual dialogue throughout the film.
- A soldier loses a testicle to an enemy landmine (very bloody).
- Childbirth scene inside an abandoned German tank (no nudity).
- Use of condoms on the ends of rifles to protect against salt water, and in place of gloves in a childbirth scene.
Violence & Gore
-
- Frequent war violence.
- Some gore (i.e. a dead man is seen with his intestines spilling out, etc.)
- Not as gory as Saving Private Ryan or other such films, but still disturbing.
Profanity
-
- There is one clear use of the name of Jesus.
- "Shit," "goddamn," "asshole," "son of a bitch," "bastard," and other mild curses are used throughout, as well as sexual language and ethnic slurs about Germans and Italians.
Alcohol, Drugs & Smoking
-
- Frequent drinking.
- One of the main characters smokes a cigar throughout the movie.
Frightening & Intense Scenes
-
- Many scenes, including the battle on Omaha beach and the liberation of the Nazi concentration camp, are very disturbing. Also, the Battle of the Kasserine pass early in the film is very tense.
Spoilers
Violence & Gore
- One important plot element is that the Sergeant killed a German soldier in World War I, unaware that the war was over. This is bookended at the end of the film where the Sergeant makes a similar error attacking a German soldier post final surrender in World War II, but the unit manages to save the soldier's life this time upon realizing the mistake.
