WTF Happened to Hacksaw Ridge?

[@jessetorres8738]

Keep in mind that Garfield is 6 feet tall, but Doss in real life was 5 feet 8 inches & not as physically strong as Garfield, so knowing this makes the fact that over 2 days Doss saved over 75 lives even more impressive.

I’m a 6’2 former firefighter and special operations medic. I don’t mind saying there’s no way I could do what he did……his actions are beyond comprehension. Limp bodies are incredibly difficult to move especially by yourself and mind you this is something firefighters train for with life size dummies. How he did what he did in a war zone is beyond me.

[@Omar-wq9dz]

I saw both this and Arrival on the same day back in 2016. Arrival in the morning, and Hacksaw Ridge at night. It was a good double feature that day

[@cruisinguy6024]

Wow, what a day that must have been

[@wstine79]

Mel Gibson's comeback movie was fantastic. Andrew Garfield gave great performance.

[@maze-nc1ut]

Yeah, he totally came back from being a racist, misogynistic, antisemite 👍🙂

[@Mangolite]

On record, Desmond Doss saved 75 lives. However, other sources claimed he did even more, which goes to show how humble he truly was. Even Hacksaw Ridge had to tone down some of his actual extraordinary accomplishments to maintain the suspension of disbelief.

[@Djordje_Jovanovic]

1 of the greatest war films ever made. Mel Gibson is a f***ing genius!

[@inigomontoya4032]

Desmond was a true hero. And saved more than 75. The story is far deeper than this single movie showed. But, it was a wonderful depiction of a legend.

[@barbiquearea]

This movie is basically what would happen if Ned Flanders got drafted.

[@jamesmorant1406]

He's an underrated director, Mel Gibson Hacksaw Ridge, one of the best movies in 2016

[@Locadel2003]

Vince Vaugh was also really solid in this movie

[@Constantine_IA]

It's a modern classic A MASTERPIECE

[@Axolotl_Mischief]

Love this flick. Garfield was amazing. Easily one of the best war films ever.

[@mrblue8439]

First time I saw it was just after Remembrance Day. My God it was powerful this is one of my favourite movies of the 2010's

[@reddeviluk]

Love Mel, a troubled genius who shaped my generation. Good luck to you Sir.

[@Gamzor]

I was so happy for Mel opening night I knew this would be successful and good comeback story after being blacklisted in hollywood.

[@LukeLovesRose]

Nothing. I still consider Hacksaw Ridge to be the best WW2 movie ever made

[@cruisinguy6024]

You saw Vince Vaughn’s character in this movie……right? So cheesy

[@dougmasters4579]

I think it's better than Saving Private Ryan, which was marred by over melodramatic scenes and hammy dialogue/characters. Movies like 'Hacksaw' feel more real, like an authentic war movie.

[@Cinderella121]

Yep, much better than saving private ryan

[@andrewweber9930]

i adore this movie

[@shanedogg209]

this movie is pretty much a horror movie disguised as a military movie imo. that 3rd act is wild.

[@Gamzor]

nah its real life, war is hell

[@derangedlunaticakad.l.7030]

Excellent movie it’s one of my favorites. I don’t purchase many movies, but this is one I did.

[@thekidcorner359]

oh i want to see WTF happened to HOME ALONE (1990)

[@Teamo86]

What are you doing in the comment section then? Then get to work!

[@thetr00per30]

this movie is a masterpiece

[@WELSHYTECH]

This film is amazing

[@maze-nc1ut]

I just watched WTF happened to Mel Gibson last night😂😂

[@maxpaschke2297]

JoBlo should review the movie Ordinary People (1980)!

[@chr1998is]

I don’t think Mel Gibson gets his credit as a Director. He has always done solid films. Braveheart, Passion of the Christ, Apocalypto and Hacksaw Ridge all grossed over $100 million at the box office. Let’s see if Flight Risk lives upto his reputation in January 2025.

[@טוניפרידלוף]

You should do wtf happened to Alexander 2004 because you do wtf happened to troy 300 gladiator

[@Cinderella121]

My absolute favorite world war 2 movie. And yes, I’ll say it. It’s better than saving private ryan.

[@seriousnesstv7902]

Saving Private Ryan wasn’t even a true story so it’s story already isn’t as impactful as these

[@OofHearted]

What happened that was Monty Python-esque involving stretchers and bullets? Why would you leave that part out?!

[@joshfactor1]

dude got robbed at the oscars

[@michaelstaunton1632]

👍👍👍🎥

[@Retro.Gamer.1982]

Mel is an amazing director and, along with other Hollywood greats, is going to be instrumental in destroying wokeism that has plagued cinema.

[@טוניפרידלוף]

What the movie that he did with native American

[@ricardoaguirre6126]

Its a great story but when it came to the battle scenes its like Mel Gibson was trying way too hard to be more intense than Saving private Ryan. Theres literally a shot of soldiers from both sides charging at each other as if it were a medieval battle.🤣

[@seriousnesstv7902]

As intense at it is, it sure makes for a visual spectacle

[@davidmylchreest3306]

As terrible a person as Gibson is, I'm honestly surprised he didn't get more offers of quality work after this. It's a terrific film, and Gibson should have focussed on his career behind the camera.

[@FredMyers-o3g]

So long as he keeps on his meds, he'll be ok.

[@Retro.Gamer.1982]

Why is he terrible?

[@davidmylchreest3306]

@@Retro.Gamer.1982 Tell me you haven't watched the video without telling me you haven't watched the video

[@GojiraRising]

For a war film it felt way too much like an over the top action movie.

[@ericseitzler81]

What? There was nothing in it that seemed like just an action movie all war movies are like that and about 99% of it is actual fact
