  The battle scenes are very graphic, realistic, and absolutely spine chilling to watch. They are long, and filled with bloody gunfire, graphic stabbings with knives and bayonets, and many explosions which separate limbs and leave blood everywhere. Guts, limbs, intestines, and blood everywhere.

  A soldier is shown with his legs blown off. Bloody strings of fat and muscle are shown protruding from his legs. His femur bones are shown for several seconds.

  A soldier is slowly crawling through the battlefield and is startled by a wounded soldier that gets up and starts screaming in front of the soldier. A gunshot is heard and the screaming soldier takes a bullet to the back of the head. A graphic exit wound splatters brain matter all over the face of the other soldier before they are both ripped apart with bullets.
