High King Gil-galad a character from the Silmarillion appears very briefly in the prologue, which shows him impaling an orc, a scene that was cut due to an increasing chance of an "R" rating showed his death, which included him being lifted up by "Sauron" and being set on fire by his arm, their was also going to be a brief glimpse of the aftermath of his death.

PG-13 violence type: blood and graphic.

This flashback culminates with a scene in which there is some more fighting similar to the big battle. A man dives into a river and then is shot by archers. We do not see the impact, but the man is seen floating dead with several arrows protruding from his back, and some diluted blood can be seen in the water.

Two elderly men fight using long sticks that emit bolts of power. They are both knocked to the ground, and flung about. By the end, they both have bloody faces. One is magically forced to rotate while lying on the floor, with his fixed head being the central point of rotation.

An innocent hobbit strolling down a street has his head lopped off by a Nazgul (non-graphic). The scene cuts away on impact.

There is a battle in a cavern involving the heroes, orcs, and a troll. This battle is mostly non-graphic swordplay with the exception of two points. The first is when a man removes the head of an orc, and there is a small splash of black blood. The second is when the troll is shot through the mouth; again, there is little to no blood, but the arrows are shown protruding from the back of the creature's head, and from its mouth.

A man is repeatedly shot with arrows. We see the impact, and he grunts in pain. He is shot three times in total. An uruk then prepares to shoot him in the head, but he is interrupted by another character.

In the orc place all the orcs dig for another orc which is intense.

The film is intended for people 13 over due to violence.

Frodo puts on the ring and sees the Eye of Sauron. This can be scary for younger viewers.

Galadriel becomes tempted by the power of the ring, and momentarily transforms into a darker, terrifying version of herself.

There are a couple of jump moments. A scene in which a friendly character's face briefly turns grotesque suddenly and without warning. The change is accompanied by a loud snarl from the character, but he returns back to how he was crying.

Another jump scene involves a character hiding behind a pillar, when suddenly, a much larger creature goes around the other side of the pillar and roars loudly.

The Nazgul are evil creatures that are cloaked all in black, and that give off a bloodcurdling cry from time to time.

The formation of Lurtz is grotesque. Some may find it disturbing.

The facial appearance of the Orcs could be scary. The faces of the orcs are cut up and a little bloody with yellow eyes and gray skin.

There is one brief scene in which a creature is tortured. This may be disturbing for younger viewers. The creature's screams can be heard and his hands are visible, but nothing graphic is shown.

When a man is affected by the ring, he becomes irrational and gets somewhat scary, shouting and grabbing other characters.
