This movie is a "modern" retelling of the "Rape of the Sabine Women". While no explicit rape or explicit mentions happen in the film, there are many moments where it is implied. The "7 brides" are kidnapped with the intent to marry (in which consumation is implied in the film) the "7 brothers". The story "Rape of the Sabine Women" is directly referenced both in Millie reading the story to the young women who were taken in the evenings (1 of the 2 books she owns) and in the song "Sobbin Women" sung by the eldest brother as he encourages the younger brothers to follow the example set to get their desired brides.

The "7 brides" are kidnapped with no real concern to their desires in order to make them marry the "7 brothers". The brothers decided to carry out this plan after meeting the women one time at a barn raising. I'm not sure if this counts as sexual objectification, but it seems close enough to leave context and let others make that call!

A character’s finger is intentionally hit with a hammer. Another character has his toe hit by a hammer. Both happen on-screen but are not up-close, drawn-out or gorey.

Totally off-screen, no screaming or dramatics, but a character does have a baby and we see people rushing to help.

Characters arm themselves and someone is shown taking aim, but no shots are fired at humans. We do hear gunshots in one scene but they are fired into the air and not aimed at anyone.
