I was just waiting for Garfield to rip open that uniform and swing around as spidey, his secret identity. "Just one more city, Lord. Just one more!"

Andrew Garfield is predictably fantastic in his role, but the flashy spectacle of the action is tonally at odds with the themes of the solemnity and brutality of war the story seems to want to communicate. In addition, the look of the…

Keep your friends close; your enemies closer. Without a rifle you say during war!? What stupendous courage to enact that! This magnificent movie depicts all of those things

Great movie and true story of inspiration and rejection of using weapons and still showing leadership and saving your fellow man in war.

Amazing movie! I did not even get bored once. Tells the true and brave story of a young medic soldier, Desmond Doss, who does something that no one could dare to try in a war. The movie takes place during the events of the Second World…

Great movie! Some scenes are a bit gory and descriptive but this is Mel Gibson we're talking about after all.

Really enjoyed this. Doss must have been an interesting character.

This is a very entertaining movie, if one doesn't mind the intense and graphic violence which is often such a prominent aspect of movies directed by Mel Gibson. But oddly, the film both understates and overstates the heroism of its…

Simply awe inspiring, hard to believe but true. A real life hero.

one of the best war movies ever made....as a fellow C.O. I have first hand experience what it is like to serve and still hold on to your beliefs....while some think Gibson Over-inflated the battle scenes and the trials he went through, on…

Good, spiritual.

A steadfast pacifist determined to serve. A difficult stance, to bring literally only a brave heart to a gunfight. A fairy tale-like but dramatically effective depiction of a suspected and reviled coward turned a deeply respected hero.

Mel frequently goes beyond truth and 'normal' when acting or directing. He ruined 'The Passion of Christ' when he traded biblical truth for make-believe. So this story came off as contrived. The battle was filled so thick with smoke…

The true story of WWII conscientious objector, Desmond Doss. He has a passion to serve his country as a medic. During basic training he takes the abuse of his fellow recruits but his resolve to serve remains. The battle for Iwo Jima was…

Director Mel Gibson’s biopic starts out sincerely enough with an Oscar-nominated performance from Andrew Garfield in the lead and a supporting cast of British and Australians giving passable American accents. But being a MEL GIBSON!! film…

Great movie. Very similar to Saving Private Ryan in terms of the war action.

I was skeptical loaning this one; but the World War films are pretty supportive of the young soldiers w/ compassion of the Lone wolf. Ends up the one that refused to draw arms is the one that literally ' hall the ass of those that look…

I am NOT one to watch war movies,, but this was very well done. There is only about 25 minutes of violence in a film over 2 hours in length. The story line is really good and such a pleasant surprise. Great acting, directing and it…
