Great Story, Long Lost Values

Rating: 8/10 (12 February 2017)

Great war story with a very real depiction of war and loss of life with brother's in arms. There are some scenes that are far reaching and quite brutal; this coming from someone that has been desensitized to almost everything. What I enjoyed most about Hacksaw Ridge is that in a time where our freedom was at the highest risk of loss; regardless of beliefs, race, color or creed, Americans had to come together to fight for what makes our country great, or at least laid the framework to greatness. Trying not to pull at any political strings in respect to democratic views from all sides...I digress.
Overall, an incredible story of standing for one's personal beliefs, leaning on a higher power and serving their country while challenging what and how it means to serve. Great CGI, acting, videography and if you have a strong stomach, I highly recommend this movie. Powerful, moving, and inspiring.
