Fascinating

Rating: 8/10 (5 May 2020)

Without the blessing of true events, you would really think that Mel Gibson is a sacred stick in the name of a false God. When it gets to a certain point, you think, "how can it be more fake than the movie? ". But an old-school, personal-faith movie, with its silly, innocent stories, still looks touching. The film is a two paragraph structure of Full Metal Jacket, with long stretches of calm and defiance followed by a sudden plunge into the hell mode.
