Phenomenal - A Genuine Piece of History

Rating: 10/10 (27 November 2017)

Hacksaw Ridge is by far the most visceral, raw and emotional piece of historical/drama film in portraying World War 1 & 2. It is one that is rare, unusual and makes you question the capacity of human compassion and consciousness.
By far the most talented and finest piece of acting (up-to-date) by Andrew Garfield, who plays Desmond Doss - a Conscientious Objector or 'Conscientious Co-operator'. Drawing to the middle and ending of the film Doss is seen to gain respect and honour for his selflessness and compassion, in comparison to his mistreatment and of him being ridiculed and beaten by his fellow soldiers during his training. The iconic line (and sequence) of 'Lord please, help me get one more'gives insight into the humanistic qualities of one man willing to fight and save others when hope seems lost.
The constant ambush of graphically violent scenes, illustrate the essence of the 'hell-on-Earth' environment during World War 1 & 2, whilst incorporating a balance of suspense and slight fear during a scene in which Desmond finds himself entering the tunnels in which the Japanese have occupied.
OVER DEFINITELY, A MUST WATCH.
