Includes intense scenes of brutal war violence and torture.
The subject matter is pretty depressing, as the film deals with the psychological effects of war and doesn't shy away from showing the audience the realities of war. This film may depress some viewers as a result of its realistic subject matter.
The film, as a whole, is very intense, particularly enhanced by its gritty realism.
Many scenes from it may trigger PTSD for such veterans.
The infamous Russian Roulette scene is said to be the most frightening non-horror movie scene in cinema history
The film is intended for people over 16 due to drastic violence, bloody details and profanity.
