What Parents Need to Know
About We Were Soldiers
Parents need to know that this is one of the most brutally violent movies ever released, with up-close, graphic, and relentless violence and the deaths of many characters. There is some strong language and a mild sexual situation.

Families Can Talk About
- Families can talk about how we decide to risk American lives in a war, and how, knowing that lives will be lost, we prepare and motivate our armed forces. They may want to discuss their own views on the war in Viet Nam and the treatment of veterans.

Crap film, ok for teens
Personaly thought it was an awfull film. There is much blood and gore and film is extremly violent although deaths are usually quick and painless. There is very little swearing or sex for the genre. Whille this is a violent film, there are far more innapropiate and more disturbing Vietnam films out there

Very gripping and sometimes sad.
This helps explain what happened over there and point out mistakes that america made. This gave me upmost pride in these soldiers.

one of the most graphic and brutal films ever released.
this movie was very well done. it was one of the most graphic and brutal movies i ever seen. lots of scenes are graphically intense. some scenes are very disturbing. it shows a guy get burned. parents pause and think before you let your kids see this one. language is 4 "f" words, which is not bad at all considering it's a war movie. Mel Gibson does a fantastic job acting in this movie. see it then buy it.
