Film is great from an account of a true story of a medic who saved 75 soldiers in combat.Good action and actors who portrayed the characters. Film has a lot of bloody scenes and killings as the director Mel Gibson portrayed the film during that time.

A Godly man who served God first. Staying true to and loyal to his Faith, his beloved country, and his fellow man. Proving true his merit, honor ,service, duty, and patriotism in the face of many challenges, insurmountable odds and under extreme persecution from his comrades in arms, superiors and subordinates alike. Yet with such nobility honor and integrity a hero not only to his beloved Country but a Hero of the faith. God made a way for just one more, so many times over. God is good. I personally pray for all of the Service Member families who did not bring there loved ones home MIA/KIA also including the survivors and trauma suffered for my freedom & the freedom & Independence of these United States of America !!!

I am ex-Vietnam, so I can attest to the close accuracy of what was shown. Yes, if for some reason you are not liked, they will beat the hell out of you and you really don't know who did it because there were too many and you are trying to hide all your vital parts. The story is about a person, not about basic training in the military, so lots more could have been shown, but why. The military operates under a set of codes and they are numerous and complex, but to disobey the base commander's orders is to invoke all manner of wrath. Logic and common sense do not enter into the game. But having a very high ranking officer say let it go will cause it to be let go. The battle scenes ended up exaggerated, but that comes from blowing up light-weight dummies not real people. Live with it. Okinawa is a volcanic island and it is riddled with caves and tunnels naturally. But the Japanese used them and expanded upon them. Some of my WWII friends say they really did stream out of the underground caves in that manner and it was hoard trying to overrun them. Thanks to Mel for doing an admirable job and attempting to remain as close as possible to the true story.Read full review

Hacksaw Ridge is a 2016 biographical war drama film directed by Mel Gibson based on the 2004 documentary the Conscientious Objector. The film focuses on the World War II experiences of Desmond Doss , an American pacificist combat medic who, as a Seventh-day Adventist Christian , refused to carry or use a weapon or firearm of any kind. Doss became the first conscientious objector to be awarded the Medal of Honor, for service above and beyond the call of duty during the Battle of Okinawa. I found it very interesting and great acting. I enjoyed the film a lot and highly recommend.
