Mel pulled it off. Hacksaw Ridge is a refreshing WW2 movie.

>decades TTRL and SPR came out only 18 years ago, and Band of Brothers 16. Take your Meme Gibson shit out of here
Julian Reed
It's been almost 20 years since then. By the time passed, most WW2 veterans have since died.
Asher Perez
So then what happens after the 50 japs rush them? I mean how they survive?
Joseph Perry
>It's the most chilling depiction of WW2 we've had in decades.
So are we going to pretend Band of Brothers, Letters of Iwo Jima, The Pacific, Saving private Ryan, Downfall and The Thin Red Line never happened because those all came out in the past 20 years. Probably would have been better to change it to the past 5 years.
Oliver Sanders
he woke up...
Jason Collins
It's a brief nightmare that Dross has when he sleeps in the trenches.
the part at the beginning of the battle when the "dead" soldier sits up screaming before he and the other guy got shredded by gunfire was worse
Alexander Peterson
Meh, I didn't feel anything after watching it There will never be a scene like the ending of pic related, which is one of the most emotional endings of all times, it was the first time I've ever seen people literally crying out loud and hugging themselves in a cinema.. I couldn't believe my eyes, since titanic I didn't cry this way, Paul walker is greatest actor ever existed
Benjamin Carter
his name is fucking DOSS
Brandon Morgan
This film is chilling. But it's not really like Hacksaw Ridge. It's more meditative and questioning.
Henry Price
>there are people on this planet RIGHT NOW that audibly react in a movie theater thinking anybody fucking cares about their reaction to a film Jesus fucking Christ I cringed so hard a chill went up my spine
Xavier Garcia
SPR was one scene of desensitizing realism followed by 100% Hollywood propaganda tier war action
Hacksaw ridge has nothing but realism anti-war action, with a story that reinforces it
Elijah Price
you need to be 18 to post here
Daniel Turner
So why are you here
Isaiah Moore
The title of this movie rips off Heartbreak Ridge.
Robert Reyes
People react because they get emotional and surprised you stuck-up.
Jaxson Peterson
Ok so this is my question. When the soldier tells his superior that someone was lowering soldiers and even Japanese survivors the guy mentions the japs "didn't survive" this means they killed the survivors Desmond lowered huh?
Cooper Bailey
So quietly react. Don't act like a fucking spaz in a quiet movie theater
Jacob Fisher
>followed by 100% Hollywood propaganda tier war action >it's only propaganda with Germans, dey good Aryans dey dindu nuffin At least SPR had Steamboat Willie
Benjamin Miller
When I saw Platoon in the theatre people gasped when Kevin Dillon bashed the gooks head in until u saw his brains.
Justin Sanchez
That's the implication, yes.
John Collins
>Hacksaw ridge has nothing but realism anti-war action >a corpse actually wakes up, screams and has his head explode to start an epic video game action scene where bullets make flesh literally explode with CGI blood while at the same time soldiers charge in blindly not following any orders or any semblance of tactics
Nathan Bailey
How old are you user? Did you also see Apocalypse Now/Full Metal Jacket in theaters?
Asher Sanders
41, I was pretty young, about 13. My friends mom took us on a school night.
Isaac Ramirez
I thought Kevin Dillon was gonna be a huge star like his bro. Only other good movie he had was The Blob.
Jace Moore
No, they were just really badly wounded and unfortunately didn't make it down.
Honest.
Jace Bell
I just saw this movie the other day & it totally sucks.... Save you're $$, unless you're a Jeebus lover!
Anthony Martinez
I wonder who is behind this. And no, is not a jew but a dude with bad taste. Which is worse.
Ayden Sanders
Thank (((you)))
Asher Smith
you can see how much of a pleb somebody is by just the way he posts about this movie
Lucas Thomas
>With a budget for $40 million, the team still faced many challenges. When Australian tax incentives were taken off the table, they had to get the film to qualify as Australian to receive government subsidies. Luckily, despite being American-born, Gibson’s early years in Australia helped the film qualify along with other Aussie-born cast members such as Rachel Griffiths (Doss’s mother), Teresa Palmer (Doss’s girlfriend/wife) and Luke Bracey, one of Doss’s most antagonistic unit members. Rounding out the cast are unit leaders Vince Vaughn and Sam Worthington, and Hugo Weaving as Doss’s father.[11] Turns out Mel is the real Jew.
Henry Robinson
It was the first time those soldiers were in actual warfare, soldiers can never be psychologically prepared enough for the reality of war.
Thats why they scramble around panicking, its only natural and historically accurate..
that being said, as the film progresses, the soldiers are shown to be more disciplined and listen to orders, such as when vince orders them to retreat trench by trench.
Ryan Morris

>hollowpoints
Cameron Powell

Thomas Hughes
Need source on both sides using hollow points in Okinawa.
Nathaniel Lopez
Hacksaw Ridge was absoulutely brillant in every sense of the word.
