It shouldn't surprise anyone that Spike Lee's new war film Da 5 Bloods features its share of unsettlingly violent imagery, though even with that warning many were left intensely disturbed by the amount of real-life war imagery Lee decided to include.

Without any warning whatsoever, Lee flashes up incredibly graphic images from the My Lai massacre, including the visual of a dead, mutilated child.

We haven't included the image for the sake of your own sanity, and though a Lee-directed war film was always going to poke and prod its audience, some nevertheless felt that the director went too far by bombarding viewers with these images for the sake of "cheap" shock value.
