- Anvilicious: The film is not at all subtle in its intended condemnation of the U.S. government's past mistreatment of the indigenous population and the parallels to more modern war crimes in Vietnam.
- Do Not Do This Cool Thing: Note to the filmmakers — if the whole point of your film is that War Is Hell, then it's probably not a good idea to also revel in that very same carnage. It just makes you look like a bunch of hypocrites.
- Narm: The sheer rabid one-dimensional savagery of the US cavalry soldiers during the final act of the film almost comes off as comedic for how over-exaggerated the violence is.
- Nightmare Fuel: The massacre at the end definitely qualifies.
- Nightmare Retardant: Similar to the Narm trope above, the massacre scene can be seen as so over-the-top in terms of violence, and the US cavalry soldiers so ridiculously evil, that it all almost comes off as amusing.
