The following is a brief summary of the content found in this documentary that's been rated PG-13. Profanity consists of a number of mild expletives, while some strong religious and colorful phrases are also uttered. Various bits of war-related archival footage is present (bombs dropping and exploding, planes being hit, etc.) with much of it seen from a distance and with no human aftermath. That said, there are some brief clips showing wounded and dead people, some with bloody/gory results.
Some of that material may be unsettling for some viewers, as might McNamara's view of warfare and his involvement in various historical events. Beyond that, some archival footage also shows smoking and drinking.
