More than place (Hacksaw Ridge) where the war was fought, this movie highlights is the medic Desmond Doss who saved numerous lives without carrying a gun or firing a shot. It makes me say a quote 'Faith in humanity restored'.I find Oscars overrated, but here -this movie has won two Oscars, which makes me say, 'Faith in Oscars restored'.The movie comes from the director Mel Gibson, the one who directed the passion of the Christ and apocalypto. He stands new coming into my conscience and what I would like to say is he is one hell of a director.Final Verdict: Movie coming from a director who understands faith so well is a reason why justice is done to the subject so nicely. Even if you are not a part of country involved in war shown in this movie, please watch it for the humanity of Desmond Doss.

Andrew Garfield shines in this movie. So does the supporting cast. There's something so admirable an unique about how the movie is made. Its like you're watching a movie made before 2000 but in a good way. The movie never bores you. The drama is solid and the when the movie gets brutal OMG I can't praise the intensity and the gimness of the perfecrtly filmed war scenes. The only knit pick about the movie is that I found Vince's charecter of the Sarge a bit over the top. But its okay. He also gives a competent performance. The standouts are Hugo Weaving and Andrew Garfield.

This movie gave me so much emotional, just like a gift of my life to see such extraordinary thing

... to support others killing so that he doesn't have to. Like atheists who can only prosper among nations of believers, pacifists seem determined to remain uncomprehending and ungrateful to those who do the unpleasant task of fighting against others who would take their property, nation, family and and life. Somehow, this makes pacifists noble, in some people's estimation. Even those who go to war thinking it's glorious are quickly disillusioned - but that doesn't mean that they abandon violent force.The one credit I'll concede to this film-making effort is that the perfect casting was done for the lead actor. Nothing else about this film is remarkable.
