I recently gave "The Pacific," a modern treatment of the Pacific Theater by Tom Hanks a two-star rating for his poor portrayal of our troops during WW2. Like many modern treatments, they highlight the lowest level of language and behaviour.
Mel Gibson did an excellent job of avoiding the seedy trash talk and sexual content so many others make as their focus. He also highlighted the Christian faith of the main character, doing so in an honorable way. The gore of battle was a little too graphic for me, and made it not viewable by my younger children. However, that is what the "R" stands for.
