Hacksaw Ridge - 2016 FR, Гаксоу Рідж, The Conscientious Objector
if i wanted to be preached at for two hours and witness messy explosions with rats crawling everywhere i'd have just gone on film twitter and stated an opinion
Hacksaw Ridge might be the most realistic portrayal of War ever put on screen.
Mel Gibson proves once again that he is a legitimate top-notch director. This film is incredibly well made. Every aspect of this movie is impressive. The performances. The visuals. The battle scenes. The story. The characters. You name it, and this movie does it well. The man deserves a Best Director nom!
If Andrew Garfield isn't AT LEAST nominated for an Oscar, it will be a travesty. This is Andrew Garfield's movie, but aside from him I was most impressed with Vince Vaughn. I've never seen him take on a roll like this and I think he pretty much knocked it out of the park. He…
there was a moment where I wanted someone to shoot andrew garfield just so the movie would end and that moment was 8 minutes in
I left Hacksaw Ridge with such a powerful reaction that I never get with movies. I left this stunned and almost speechless. It's one of the best directed movies of 2016, with great editing, beautiful cinematography, fantastic performances, most notably Andrew Garfield (His best performance and possibly the best of 2016), Vince Vaughn (Brings a lot of the films funniest moments to the light), and Luke Bracey (If you thought he was bad or dull, this will get you a few steps away from that), and intense combat sequences. The movie is heartbreaking, intense, and hilarious (Can't believe how funny this was honestly) all in one. We need more movies as good as this. Seriously a must see.
I’m not sure if I was supposed to have so many different emotions throughout this movie as I did. Throughout the beginning, I could’ve sworn I was watching a not-great remake of The Notebook. The love story felt overplayed and lets be honest, Ryan Gosling did it better.
Then the action-packed war scenes moved in. It was intense. It was graphic. It was jaw dropping at times. I kept making a mental note of how great this scene was... and then it kept going and it basically lasted until the end of the movie.
Needless to say, I am not a fan of long action scenes but surprisingly I was intrigued the entire time because this movie really had me…
Minutes after the big heroic moment in which Doss saves dozens of lives, Gibson takes a shot at being a maniac by glorifying how the Japanese got insanely massacred. So yup.
As expected from a movie directed by Mel Gibson, it’s an ordinary one.
The first part which is used, of course, to build up a romantic relationship, ended after some pretty cringey scenes with a fast wedding.
After the romantic relationship is done, there has to be the relationship between men, also here nothing new.
Some hard time some easy time, brotherhood is done.
The following battle scenes turn up like a GIF, the same pictures and actions again and again and again.
As cheap as GIF is produced, as cheap some effects look like. The CGI flames and blood sometimes really doesn’t seemed to be like from a movie with a budget around 40.000.000 $.
Last thing what annoyed…
I don’t understand how some people don’t like this movie. Andrew Garfield is fantastic in it and it’s a true story. It’s definitely one of the best war films.
An incredible story made into an unforgettable movie. Watching this I felt like I was there, laughing and crying with the characters, making this real and unforgettable, as it should be. The action scenes were so terrifyingly brutal and almost realistic in depicting something as close to hell as anyone ever will. This just shows that Gibson can direct one hell of an action sequence but also a real gripping character study in the same movie. Garfield was so mesmerisingly raw as Desmond Doss that every line of dialog almost bought a tear to my eye. An incredible war epic and a definite must see.
this movie’s problem is that it takes itself wayyyyy too seriously.
i would have hated it if not for two things: andrew garfield (who is spot-on) and the portrayal of war which is unlike what we normally see in movies like this.
Retratando o heroísmo, patriotismo e adesão às convicções, 'Hacksaw Ridge' é uma peça empolgante.
Wow kicks in HARD a little over halfway. Like cruisin at 1mph most of the movie and then quick turn to 195mph.
