violence
In scenes of war violence, soldiers shoot one another and there is some focus on bloody detail.
discrimination
A homophobic man punches another man who he refers to as 'queer' and 'faggot'. Soldiers refer to a man they are travelling with as 'the Jew'.
additional issues
The film features infrequent strong language ('f**k') as well as uses of 'dick', 'shit', 'hell', 'Jesus' and 'Christ'. There are undetailed references to suicide when a spy is given a cyanide pill. In a scene of sex, there is some thrusting detail; however the scene is brief with no nudity.
