Should be shown at SciFi channel!

Rating: 3/10 (29 December 2017)

I liked how the movie started (the story around desmonds father and the love story with Dorothy). But in this moment the battle begun, it's getting ridiculous!

During the training they all make fun of Desmond. "Skinny boy", "beanpole", etc. But on the battlefield he carries his fallen comrades on his shoulders all night long. ...under fire, on a rough terrain. No sorry, this is just stupid! Did you ever try to carry your buddy like this over 50m? Hard enough, huh?
Tbh, I don't believe, that Smitty kicks desmond down the wall during the drill. It's a classic and 1000 times seen "scumbag turns into buddy" scene and it's so damn obsolete and implausible!
There's only one way up and when the japanese soldiers reached the edge, but they don't cut the ropes or throw grenades down there. Come on! *facepalm*
Human torso shields... are you kidding me?
Grenades was kicked and slapped away. ...please!
After a while everybody down in the camp notices, that Desmond is all alone on the battlefield to save as much comrades as he can, but not a single man climbs up to help him? No one? Really?

Just read the other reviews with low ratings and you'll read about a lot more stupid scenes. Sorry Mr. Gibson, but seeing this movie and read something like "a true story" at the beginning, feels like insulting my intelligence.
