The Masterpiece

Rating: 10/10 (26 February 2017)

Only a few films in the world exist would make me watch them over and over again. In 1995, Mel Gibson directed Braveheart and this piece work has done so well that we continue to celebrate this movie today. Movies based on the true story have enormous power and theme with feelings and emotions subject matter touches real lives therefore, it is only right the director would want to show to the audience the real story to be close as possible to the reality. Director Mel Gibson has shown his excellent technique & unique work again in what I call a Masterpiece which is: The Hacksaw Ridge.
I watched Hacksaw Ridge for the first time and I had no idea what the film is about, the only information I had that it was based on the actual events. I thought about another boring war movie where most of the scenes are taken on the battlefield. Surprisingly, after the first minutes of the film, I was interested in the music composition, amazing story adaptation, pictures, etc. The film made such an impression on me that I started to be curious who is responsible for directing and an excellent acting performance. He could not have handle a real story of the medic Desmond T. Doss any better as shown in this movie. With its realistic scenes and great acting by Andrew Garfield playing the main role, it engages the viewer into the reality, romance, war, drama, faith and strong willpower. I recommend to every viewer, this film carries a strong message for all of us.
