One of the most insanely violent studio films I’ve ever seen. The torso thing… wild.

Ian

Zero interest in this one so won't be watching but just wanted to wish you a wonderful weekend nat , and hope the doggos have a fun time too

Darryl Low

Happy Feature Friday Nat. I saw your team won again last night. 2 for 2 😊 Haven't seen this one so I've been looking forward to it today. Wow. This was an intense movie Nat, but like you, I'm glad I have finally seen it. Andrew Garfield really was so good, and the rest of the cast were all great in their roles. Mel Gibson loves his big sweeping scores for his films and this one was epic. Thanks for an amazing reaction today Nat, and thanks for all your great work this week. Have a brilliant weekend 💛

You should watch a movie for Hispanic heritage month like Pan’s Labyrinth, Amores Perros, City of God or if you haven’t seen Coco it’s a must Watch Pixar movie

PSA: Band of Brothers is now on Netflix.

Fun fact, so the 70 people he saved is the wrong number, he in fact save over 100 lives but they dumbed down to a little over 70 because the studio thought people would think it was unrealistic. This movie only shows the last half of his time in service being on Hacksaw but he saved a lot of soldiers in past battles not shown in the movie. This man is an inspiration. He also did in fact help some wounded Japanese soldiers. That was not for dramatic effect. He actually did help some he came across :)

I'm a big fan of the movie but that torso scene really stretched my suspension of disbelief. It went from realistic war movie to Quentin Tarantino sensationalism. Maybe I'm wrong, maybe that literally happened, but that one scene really took me out of the movie.

Except Tarantino has a LooneyTunes-esque comedy in a lot of his violence when it’s ratcheted up like that. This is Mel Gibson’s love of violence which is so weird and deeply troubling.

OMG Nat, I think this is the 1st time I've cried more than you watching a film, the part when Doss is brining all the wounded down from the ridge had me in bits....

So i was intrigued by Nats questioning of how dramatised this movie was so had a bit of a google. Looks like the major changes were: his wife not becoming a nurse till after the war the cliff was maybe half the height of the movie, but still 300 ft. he stopped his dad shooting his uncle not his mother (though she was there and tried to intervene as well) He lost his bible all Doss's actions were either accurate or underplayed because they would have seamed impossible in the movie. He likely saved more men than credited. The netting wasnt there when they arrived, Dos was one of three who climbed up and affixed it. https://www.historyvshollywood.com/reelfaces/hacksaw-ridge/ id recommend reading around but the above has a nice summary. What an amazing person and a hero in every sense of the word. Great movie that does his memory credit.

This movie's a bit brutal but it's a very good one. Emotional for sure! Don't feel bad for becoming emotional and tearing up throughout! I know that I'll become a wet tear filled mess before this ends. It happens e very single time. I recently watched this, too. He's talking at a World War I Memorial, yeah. I love the way that this film introduces Desmond, his father and his entire family. xD You're not alone with crying already! The water works started for me as well. This movie hits hard emotionally! lmao, don't feel bad AT ALL! This movie is an emotional one for sure! This movie is far more intense than Saving Private Ryan and that's why it's easier to watch. This is a lot more to stomach but that's why it's not as frightening if that can make any sense. Wow, Natalie! Saying that he has plot armor! xD That may be true but c'mon, you don't say that when watching a movie like this. Desmond did all of this, yeah. He rescued all of those men. Were parts of this exaggerated for the screen? Obviously, yes, some of it was. I don't feel that it detracts from the movie's quality in any way, though. They did an incredible job making this movie. It was made with a budget of $40,000,000. Incredible movie and amazing reaction, Natalie. Really enjoyed watching this with you. :)

I'd be all for Pan's Labyrinth! That's an incredible movie that's totally worth seeing.

Homie… they didn’t need to Captain America a dudes torso hahaha. Saving Private Ryan is also super violent but not cartoonish and so over the top. Also that never happened. They made it up.

Just got finished reading that page and wow! That was a lot of info on Doss! Definitely a great read and one worth reading. :)

Apparently the real story is even more insane but the director decided not to put some stuff in because he felt some aspects of the real story would have been to far-fetched for audiences to believe

The battle of Okinawa produced the highest casualty rates in the Pacific Theater. (that's dead, wounded and missing) The invasion takes place April 1st with little to no resistance. The US Marines land on the northern side of the island while the US Army will invade from the South. The fighting would end on June 22nd 1945. US Marine Eugene Sledge, who after the war would become a biology professor and would eventually write what is considered by many, one of the the best war memoirs ever written, (With The Old Breed: At Peleliu And Okinawa) fought on Okinawa and would write this about the battle of Shuri (very close to Hacksaw Ridge) "Everywhere lay Japanese corpses killed in the heavy fighting. Infantry equipment of every type US and Japanese was scattered about, helmets, rifles, BARs (Browning Automatic Rifles) packs, cartridge belts, canteens, shoes, ammo boxes, shell cases, machine gun ammo belts, all were strewn around us up to and all over Half Moon" (a battle area) "The mud was knee deep in some places, probably deeper in other areas if one dare venture there. For several feet around every corpse, maggots crawled about in the muck and then were washed away by the runoff of the rain. There wasn't a tree or bush left, all was open country. Shells had torn up the turf so completely that ground cover was non existent. The rain poured down on us as evening approached. The scene was nothing but mud, shell fire, flooded craters with their silent, pathetic rotting occupants, knocked out tanks and amtracs and discarded equipment, utter desolation. The stench of death was overpowering" "I existed from moment to moment, sometimes thinking death would have been preferable. We were in the depths of the abyss, the ultimate horror of war. During the fighting around Umorbrogol Pocket on Peleliu, I had been depressed by the wastage of human lives, but in the mud and driving rain before Shuri, we were surrounded by maggots and decay. Men fought in an environment so degrading, I believed we had been flung into Hell's own cesspool." "The situation was bad enough, but when enemy artillery shells exploded in an area, the eruption of soil and mud uncovered previously buried Japanese dead and scattered chunks of corpses. Like the area around our gun pits, the ridge was a stinking compost pile. If a marine slipped and slid down the backside of the muddy ridge, he was apt to reach the bottom vomiting. I saw more than one man lose his footing and slip and slide all the way to the bottom only to stand up horror stricken as he watched in disbelief while fat maggots tumbled out of his muddy dungaree pockets, cartridge belt, leggings laces and the like. He and a buddy would shake or scrape them away with a piece of ammo box or a knife blade. We didn't talk about such things, they were too horrible and obscene even for hardened veterans. The conditions taxed the toughest I knew almost to the point of screaming, nor do authors write about such vileness, unless they've seen it with their own eyes. It is too preposterous to think that men could live and fight for days and nights on end in such terrible conditions and not be driven insane, but I saw much of it there on Okinawa and to me the war was insanity." From the Marine Corp Gazette...More mental health issues arose from the Battle of Okinawa than any other battle in the Pacific during World War II. The constant bombardment from artillery and mortars coupled with the high casualty rates led to a great deal of personnel coming down with combat fatigue. Additionally, the rains caused mud that prevented tanks from moving and tracks from pulling out the dead, forcing Marines (who pride themselves on burying their dead in a proper and honorable manner) to leave their comrades where they lay. This, coupled with thousands of bodies both friend and foe littering the entire island, created a scent you could nearly taste. Morale was dangerously low by May and the state of discipline on a moral basis had a new low barometer for acceptable behavior. The ruthless atrocities by the Japanese throughout the war had already brought on an altered behavior (deemed so by traditional standards) by many Americans resulting in the desecration of Japanese remains, but the Japanese tactic of using the Okinawan people as human shields brought about a new aspect of terror and torment to the psychological capacity of the Americans.

Justin miner

seen this movie so many times and i said i wasn't going to cry but god damn emotional contagion lol

Boticus

From what I get is that what really happened Is actually crazy compared to he movie. Doss went through more shit than this movie could provide.

Brian

Band of Brothers is now on Netflix! That means not having to deal with the Max app. Please please??

Ashley

I love that you put a timer up but its not so helpful when its counting down lol.

Ashley

You are not the first reactor to think the car accident scene was a flashback to Desmonds father.

James Germain

got to say this movie made me proud of being a seventh day adventist🥹

Anonymous

Don’t stop here. Now you have to learn the true story of the men of easy company. Get Band of Brothers (now on Netflix) on your list. One of the best series of all time.

Ashley

the whole I thought I was blind scene hits so much harder knowing how much it meant to the real desmond doss.

Brent giesbrecht

So...eventually after Sherlock and LOK, we will get band of brothers? Plz :p

Daniel jackson

You should look at what Desmond Doss really did and what he went through

Anonymous

Hey Natalie, If you do the horror movies this year for Halloween, can you please do the movie "Talk to me", it came out this year and it was absolutely amazing, definitely worth the watch :)

Anonymous

Fury is another good war movie if you're interested.

Kathryn T

If you're looking for another unique take on WW2, if you haven't seen it already, I highly highly recommend JoJo Rabbit. Just an exquiste masterpiece of film on so many levels

Martin

I'm sure this movie is better than Mel's antisemitic rants but I'll pass

Darryl Low

For a movie of this size and scope, it's really quite amazing that the budget was around $40 million. They accomplished so much for what is a pretty modest budget for this scale of movie in 2016

Anonymous

His real life is even more incredible. Definitely worth a look if you want to be truly humbled. I was just at Hacksaw Ridge a few months ago and it looks nothing like this portrayal. I think a reasonable choice with this as the reality isn't nearly as Hollywood friendly.

LJ Mickey

Story of Desmond Doss is one of the greatest war stories. How someone, who doesn't want to kill, can still do their part and be a hero in a war.

Christopher Mcconnell

Another great war movie to look at is 1917. when thinking about how a movie is constructed this is a fun one. where did they cut, how did they get that shot. but also very gripping and intense. once they get over the titular ridge and they are walking through the destruction made me think of 1917. would also love to recommend "Enemy at the gates" starring jude law

Daniel Casillas

If you want to watch a war movie that doesn’t feel romanticized watch Black Hawk Down one of the most brutal realistic war films ever

Anonymous

I agree with what everyone else is suggesting, Band of Brothers is considered to be one of the if not THE greatest shows in the war film genre!

FatLittleButterfly

I remember watching this when it first came out and was utterly moved by it. I didn't re-watch until now, partly because I didn't know if I could experience it again emotionally. Like Band of Brothers or Saving Private Ryan

Ranger Maverick

Echoing what others have already said. The series "Band Of Brothers" is the epitome of this style of story telling about WW2, based largely in historical fact and working in actual interviews and storytelling from the survivors of Easy Company who are depicted in the series. It's a definite "must see" piece of work. And I would say in general it is also a little easier to consume, because it is spaced out over several episodes, and the pacing isn't always so... demanding.

Ben Wheeler

According to Wikipedia (which I don’t typically feel good about citing) he raised his family after the war in a community like 20 minutes from where I grew up in NW Georgia, and he’s buried at the Chattanooga National Cemetery

Great reaction. Have you watched band of brothers?

JayF

I subbed again when I saw you had watched this one. Nat, as to your questions about what actually happened/if some of the movie was "Hollywooded", I invite you to read the actual Medal of Honor citation which shows that the movie actually downplayed a bit of the story. https://www.cmohs.org/recipients/desmond-t-doss Also, the documentary that the interviews at the end came from answers more of your questions. I highly recommend it. It's on YT for free. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Od0uv1FzpaM&t=10s

Jayson Phillips

The actual number he got down was over 100 but they settled on 75 because they figured no one would believe it. Also Okinawa was the last place he served as medic so many people he saved before that battle.

Dennis Macko

Damn. Who's cutting so much onions here?

devin flynn

I knew this one was going to be a certified hood classic

Josh B

Definitely need to watch Band of Brothers, It's currently on Netflix.

I dont believe in god etc. but if I would believe, this guy was an angle and especially a guardian angle for the people around him.
