My next door neighbor growing up was a Pacific war veteran. Company Captain. He saw action on each of the four main islands. I would mow his lawn every week, go inside and his wife would give me cookies and I would learn EVERYTHING I could from him. He shared so much. He cared so much. He was the best of us.
yeah but it was messed up of his wife the way she refused to teach you her cookie recipe. It's like she thought you were gonna blab it all over town but she should have known you weren't like that
@@Amero2323 A Captain's Wife Divulge State Secrets ?! ?!
There was a glorious time in our nation's history. I hope we can get some of it back someday.
Man I envy you. To hear such tales……
Mowing every week? That seems excessive.
in reality, desmond and his unit were already combat veterans at this point and been through many crazy battles. they would have been quite hardened to the sight of bodies by then and expected it rather than be surprised.
so i've read. Its still a good movie though and probably a good representation of their first encounter with other combatants from other battlefield. Its crazy to think that there are literally movies like this, that underplay the actual story. And its all because not many people would really watch 4 hour movie like this
i`ve read he didnt volunteer but was drafted?
Dude you never get USED to it!,
@Jon Erichsen you actually will, speaking from experience. The first time you see, take care or move fallen service members, there is that aversion feeling that this is somebody's dead body. The second time, you will make a coping mechanism thinking that you will have to do this because it is part of your job, or in my case think of the body as not human or alive. Third time, you will feel a bit more accustomed to your situation. After that, you will feel desensitized and do you lr job naturally. If you think about it, it's amazing how humans tend to adapt/rationalize to their situations if it calls for it, especially for wartime or morbid
@@Abensberg that's not true he was working in some kind of a naval plant and was considered too much of an important job to be drafted making the claim he was drafted nonsense. He volunteered pure and simple as that.
My uncle passed away a few yrs ago…got shot up at Okinawa. He didn’t like to talk about it…saw too many friends die. He said they were moving forward,…and the next thing he remembers was waking up in a hospital ship bed. One bullet lodged close to his spine…and was never removed because of it’s location. It bothered him some…but he lived with it. Heroes all.
God bless your uncle and many brave people who fought in the war.
That’s actually a pretty good outcome considering how scary and painful it typically is getting shot in active combat like that
My grandfather was wound there too grenade in his back
That's hardcore, Effin tank your uncle was!
Not heroes, pawns. We have learnt nothing from what they were subjected to thanks to idiotic patriotism.
My Uncle was there, on a destroyer DD-778 Massey. He manned the anti aircraft guns. While at Okinawa he said it was his job to keep Japanese gunfire off the Higgins boats until they made it to shore. It haunted him for decades afterward. He said 'you screw up one time and 25 guys die'. That could still produce the 1,000 mile glassy stare even as late as 1985.
My Dad came ashore at D-day Normandy on Omaha beach he never talked about it until just before he died. He would cry and say he finally gets to join his friends. He had nightmares that I couldn’t imagine what was going on in his mind. I lost him in 2010 at 92 years old. Rest in peace Dad I love you ❤️
There's a good chance your uncle helped to protect my dad who was a corpsman with the Marines on Okinawa. He was one of the many on those Higgins boats. So, my gratitude to your uncle for serving and defending their lives.
You can see the terror on his face when he says “oh, but they can.”
It's even worse, far past terror, apathy and complete demoralization. Already dead.
Mr. Bean
No the worst part about that part is that he has to go up again…
My grandfather fought in Saipan and Okinawa. He would talk about it. Definitely hell on earth. He died three years ago at 96.
Sorry for your loss
Vince Vaughan in a war movie is the most immersion breaking shit I could possibly imagine lol.
I was waiting for Owen Wilson showing up lol
it really did ruin the movie, stupid shit. also, since when do drill instructors go to war with the trainees, cmon man!
Probably 20 years too old lmao
I haven't seen this movie. That was my first thought when I saw the thumbnail lol
I imagine him trying to give his men an inspiring speech and it ending up sounding like the pep talk he gave to his friend in swingers. "Come on guys, we can go get those germans. They're just like bunny rabbits. And we've got these claws. Or something. Baby."
0:41 This is the kind of scene I love to see in movies, when soldiers realize how horrible and deadly war really is as they are marching off to their first fight, *"War does not come with a guarantee. No soldier gets the promise of safety, survival or victory"* - Crasher
War does, though. It comes with a guarantee that nothing's as it seems, change is the only constant, and do or die.
Was that quote a Clone Wars reference???
In real life the 77th Infantry Division were already combat veterans of Guam and the Philippines.
@@NuclearHendrix I think a lot of people are misinterpreting them being momentarily shocked for it being their "first time in combat."
Like you said, most of them had already seen death and conflict. But they had JUST arrived to this locale. Anytime you pull up to a fresh scene, no matter how many times you've seen that type of...horror, it will always put you on your heels a little bit.
The moment it stops registering in your brain that it is something horrific...is when you need to seriously start holding onto your humanity. There's a certain point where it does NOT bother you at all, and that's when you have become either a psychopath or a sociopath.
"hey we're making a serious world war 2 film, who should we cast?"
"be sure to get a wedding crasher"
It's absolutely crazy these guys had to do stuff like this, and as young men, too. I don't think most of us can comprehend such a thing.
Especially when the war was over in Europe
Garfield is always amazing in emotional roles.
6:18 Sergeant Howell said "we're not in Kansas anymore"
he just like Colonel Quaritch
Sgt. Howell
No, that's Dorothy, from the Wizard of Oz
Crazy thing is the Germans who were allies with the Japanese, showed them how to build there bunkers with the concrete withstanding more artillery hits. It is just like at Normandy, you can float a bigger gun than you can carry on land.
the shwere gustav gun would like to have a word with you
@@AnamelessChild And how much railroad did it need to get to you?
@@AnamelessChild bringing up that Reichsmark-draining monstrosity that actually harmed German war production isn't the best example lmfao
was stationed in Oki from 2018-2021 and was one hell of a time and being on such a small island with so much bloodshed and history was an extraordinary feeling. Happy I went to go see the actual hacksaw ridge. also My dad, Grandpa, a few great uncles and cousins were all in Okinawa when we were in the Service and all turned 21 there always felt such a strong connection to this place. I miss it everyday
Your dad and uncles would not have been in Okinawa in 1945 that would make them 99yo or older.
@@jasonswift7098 and? He might be older than you think.
@@jasonswift7098 I guess you missed the part where he said "Grandpa".

Is anyone else amazed at how Mel Gibson managed to make this movie off 27 million US dollars and shot in 55 days.
Exposes all that MCU and Disney bull crap.
Its Mel Gibson…
They piss away money on garbage, then lecture us.
There’s no way lol
I'm more amazed at how you came up with a random $27 million number. It was shot in 59 days btw.
I'd still like to know why the Japanese didn't simply cut the Jacob's ladder off the cliff face from the top.
My friend these days we think like that why those japs didn't cut off the ladder but in reality we haven't see how was the actual situation 😅. Coz this is just a movie.
It would get rebuilt again or risk being shot at.
coz this a really stupid movie
Warriors mentality
The Ridgeline would be under observation by Forward Observers, any indication of enemy presence brings a coordinated Artillery barrage to pre-determined grids.
"These are the guys we are replacin´" "The dead ones too?" "Oh, for sure"
My Uncle was in the navy at Okinawa. Shooting Kamikazes. Insane battle
Flak gunner or pilot?
@@TK--hf6db flack .. he was on an LST
My other uncle was on a PT boat in the South Pacific. He was in the battle of Leyte gulf. His squadron received a Presidential citation. The squadron all received Bronze Stars.
@@blainekeller6057 That's awesome
Damn man, respect to him. One of my great grandads server in the invasions of Normandy and another in North Africa
@@TK--hf6db not sure if awesome is the right word
I spent 2 years on Okinawa in the early 70's... visited many battlefields... Kakazu Ridge - Sugar Loaf Hill (lived there)... Suicide Cliffs... most of the battlefields -- including Hacksaw Ridge... the REAL Hacksaw Ridge was a lot higher / steeper / formidable than the movie description. Got to meet Desmond Doss at he grand opening of the WW2 Museum in New Orleans (originally the D-Day Museum)... a truly remarkable man!!
No its not as high in real life. They made it twice as high and wide in the movie
Man the 96th unit must seen hell in hacksaw ridge.
1:14 that’s the 1,000 yard stare 😢
I watched this when it was on Hulu. Great movie. As I rewatched it last night, in my college dorm, every time a guy would get blown to pieces, a little piece of me dropped. I apparently wasn't mentally ready to rewatch Hacksaw Ridge.
Thank you lot love from goa india
I saw a lot of horrible things in Afghanistan, from the beginning to the end of that 13 month deployment.
I thanked God that it still churned my stomach to see those things all the way until the end.
It reminded me that I still had my soul.
Mel Gibson is a really good director and filmmaker to tell such a true story.
Very underated
The story is pretty damn stupid. An enlisted man who refuses to fire a weapon? A battle buddy who refuses to watch your back until you're hit? Who the hell wants a man in their company who isn't watching their back unless they're hit.
@@claytonkickflip7595It happened though, that is why it was made into a movie, you walnut.
@@claytonkickflip7595combat medics be damned I guess.
@@claytonkickflip7595npc spotted
this movie went from real corny to borderline horror movie real fast.
I like unexpected cameos in war movies.
Saving Private Ryan was full of them, all the way to Matt Damon.
Vince Vaughn was a nice suprise here, too
Vince Vaughn wasn't a camero! He was a credited role! Camero's are uncredited appearances by major stars!
@@benadam7753 -cameo- "pop up role" was more what I meant. Like Giamatti, Dansen popping up, or Damon's surprise.
@@FauxAcct Matt Damon was not a pop up role or camero! He was listed as a co-star behind Tom Hanks!
@@benadam7753 did you see Saving Private Ryan in theaters?
@@benadam7753 !
My father was there at that time. He was the Navy in Intelligence. He learned how to type write extremely fast. After the war, he became an NYPD cop.
He told me that he was a unit in Okinawa. As his unit approached an area, they could see a civilian area from a distance that the Japanese Army had left.
They could see a man throwing his wife and children off a cliff from a distance. The man was saving his family from being tortured by the American invading force.
Only to find out it wasn't true that Americans tortured enemy soldiers or civilians. My father said that Japanese soldiers were also convinced of that as well.
Well, they should afraid of their own national army
i had heard that as well
Everything that was asked of us - we've done. Every night we lay in a filthy foxhole - prayin' the enemy won't slit our throats. Every day we spent crawling through the mud and the dirt while bullets whistled all around. This is the enemy's last stand. When we take Shuri Castle, we go home. All of us."
Another thing the film leaves out was that Doss was actually part of the team that strung up the net to Hacksaw Ridge. There's a picture of him standing on top of the ridge over the net, and it's at a distance because the photographer absolutely refused to come any closer.
I think millions of veterans probably don't feel the love like when they served they probably feel like their service doesnt matter to others. When they risked their lifes, they deserve more assistance
My great-granduncle was killed here in May 1945. Just 18 years old.
I think at the end of the medics briefing the sentence "one size, fits all" could imply that the veteran medic expects doss to die, since it can fit ALL further medics. Or he doesn't care if doss survives, having been dumbed down so much due to all the fighting.
Okinawa was one of the main reason Truman decided to use the bomb. Take Okinawa, and multiply it by 10000. This is what the invasion of Japan would have looked like. And it was no picnic for the poor Okinawan civilians either.
After the death of Hitler and taking Berlin, the Japanese were the only one's still left fighting because of their insane regime. With the support of the Allies they could have overrun Japan without obliterating a large portion of innocents.
Completely false. @@Mediados
@@wetalkinb0utpractice it’s really not. If you actually study the final stages of the pacific war, you’ll know that Japan was on its last legs and that the US could absolutely have invaded Japan. Sure, it would’ve been costly, but a large portion of the Japanese brass was in favour of a surrender and the emperor himself knew that, with the Russians coming through the Kamchatka peninsula and the US from the east, the fall of Japan was near. They were basically fighting only to get more favourable terms on their surrender. On the other hand, the US, after the split of Europe with the Russians, didn’t want to recreate a similar situation in the Pacific, knowing the Russians were the only other power who could challenge the US on the world stage after the war, so they decided to use the bombs and end the war early before the Russians could participate in an invasion of Japan and sit at the negotiation table. That is the crude reality of why the US decided to drop the bombs: not because they thought invading Japan would bear too high a human cost (which, sure, must’ve been a factor in the decision), but mainly because they knew Russia would want a slice of Japan’s territories, while the US wanted to establish an area of influence in the region without having to share it with the Russians.
@@diznts393 Oh, it's not surprising that there were multiple angles to consider with the decision making. That being said, it's absolutely indisputable that more soldiers and civilians would've been killed compared to the bombs if the invasion had actually happened. It would be beyond delusional to assert differently, which I'm not saying you are.
Great
Let's see there's Hacksaw Ridge, Bloody Ridge, Edson's Ridge, someone has to make a list of all these ridge battles and where they were - it gets confusing after a while.
I battle you fight one foot at a time, and theirs nothing or no one to fear but yourself
Kinda crazy isn't it, the war in Europe is over at this point, yet in the Pacific Theatre, the fighting is still raging. You really did luck out if you got sent to the European theatre, I know it was no picnic, but I feel it doesn't compare to the stuff these guys went through fighting the Japanese.
The US suffered more casualties and fatalities in Europe than it did in the Pacific.
@@yourarseismine1016 most of the u.s. campaigns in the pacific involved hopping from tiny island to tiny island until the Japanese mainland was close enough. While that definitely means fewer soldiers fought there (thus fewer deaths), that doesn’t mean they had it any better than those in Europe. After all, the Japanese were truly a horrific enemy to face.
Near the end of Band of Brothers, most of the troops began to get ready to help the guys in the pacific, most didn’t have the points to go home so most of them were prepares to reinforce the guys here
@@d0nut__ Its been lucky that the Japanese have been so peaceful in the 21st century. I would not want to be the country which reawakens that fighting spirit. It would be catastrophic. Let sleeping dogs lie.
Both theaters of the war were horrific. Either u were sent to Europe and either never lived past the beginning of D-day, get captured after d-day or during Operation Market Gardens, or end up nearly freezing 🥶 to death during the Battle of the Buldge.... or even survive all that and witness the true horrors of Hitler's "final solution" as the concentration camps are liberated one by one. On the other hand your sent to the pacific were you face an enemy that knows nothing of surrender and is willing to drag your ass into hell for the glory of the Japanese emperor, and that's beside the fact that you're dealing with monsoon rains, endless mud and diseases, unrelenting heat, dangers of being sunk at sea in the dead of night and being surrounded by sharks....
The 96th was a whole division..The Writers don't know that Regiments can get wiped out in battles this size, but not whole divisions..
At one instance in Okinawa, the Japanese proved themselves to be more despicable than the Nazis. The Japanese were fond of using nighttime raids, not necessarily because it resulted in a lot of kills, but because it shattered enemy moral to realize that even at night you could be moments away from getting shot/bayonetted by a Japanese solider. After a few nights of this, the Americans were on edge and a bit quick on the trigger. It seemed they caught the Japanese red handed one night and gun fire cut loose for about a minute before several soldiers started frantically yelling for a cease fire. Come to find out, the Japanese had rounded up native Okinawans (whom the Japanese considered to be racially inferior peoples) and forced them to march towards the American positions at night, knowing full well they'd get shot at and killed by Americans thinking it was another nighttime raid. Absolutely soulless behavior from people that deserved to die.
In many ways the US and Japan fought the Pacific War with a similar savagery the Nazi and Soviets had on the eastern front. Strong racial
overtones in both theaters. The fight between the western allies and the Germans was a gentlemans contest (outside of the behavior of
the SS) in comparison.
Considering the Rape of Nanking that occurred shortly before the US entered the Pacific Theater, and it's no wonder the Japanese had the reputation they did. Their pilots were encouraged to strafe parachuting defenseless pilots as well.
@@dindjarin559 there are no rules in war
Remember this story the next time some wuss says that the atomic bombing of Hiroshima was never justified.
@@Jbarack98 May I introduce you to the Geneva Conventions?
The pacific theater was the gnarliest theater of war in world war 2.
There is a minor mistake on the CGI model of the USS _Missouri_ @4:30. The antenna on the bow (which IIRC is a _satellite uplink_ antenna array), between the prow and the main battery turrets, was only installed there after the ship's reactivation and refit in *_1984._*
That and she's lacking camouflage
Man I can't believe spider man went through this fr.
He got entangled in the web of war.
thats how he didn;t get hit, spidey sense saved him
My uncle survived this battle ...he was one of about 500 left .
Must be very discouraging seeing all those dead soldiers before you even get to the frontline.
The title says “The Battle At Okinawa” but then the video ends before the battle even begins.
At that point, the battle had been going on for over a month...
@@maximilianodelrio I know that. But my point is that they don't show the battle in the clip at all. I mean the title of the video makes it sound like the video is going to show them fighting in the battle, but we don't see that in this clip at all. So really the clip should be called "Entering The Battle At Okinawa". I realize that some might see this as a technicality but I don't think that it is.
i got that 1000 yard stare too...
Great man--medic´s are important --he decided his way--the HARD way---remember his duty---they are more soldiers to do so--the (in honour to these men and all allied soldiers in the paciic ww2 campain)--thx rollf--{i like the film}

I honestly looked at the colors in the movie and wrote it off. I still have. Honestly everything I see it just seems off cast, accents color scheme. Story isn’t the only thing to a movie
When I was in the ARMY, between 1975-1980,I was a cook. In the ARMY, you are not allowed to talk in the field and if you do, very quiet. In the field you wear fatigues and not your whites
Good
5 minutes of "The Pacific" were more intense than this whole movie
Imagine being a super major war hero and your story is told in the cheesiest way availabe.
Quite a few Aussie actors in this movie
Very nice build 👌.
And I like your choice of music 🎶.
I wonder of how durable is hacksaw ridge anyway.
Gov:Thank you for serving😇
medics in the pacific theater didn't wear the red cross
Because the Geneva convention and martime law only held with European countries. Japan walked out of the League of Nations 1931. No international laws were respected in the pacific theater.
Esse filme foi muito bom 😂😂😮😮
The helmet looks so small on Vince’s head
Love how the traumatised soldiers never care to clean themselves so we can recognise them better
How did they even get the rope up there
0:01 is that a Iowa Class Battleship
Yes it is. I don't know if it would've been that close to the shore, though.
Hard to tell but its actually just your mother
Yes, those were Iowa class BBs. New Jersey, Missouri, and Wisconsin were at the primary landing area to provide support and one of those depicted here in the movie. Massachusetts and Indiana (South Dakota class) were located at another as well. The movie has 63 as the number on on that battleship in that scene. That would of been the Missouri.
I waited on a man who was in the battle. Never spoke a word to his wife or family about it. That evening he just started going on about it. His family brought him to our restaurant to try to chill him out. He quietly told us of his exploits and how bad it was. Ate a piece of fish and drank beer. Said, I’m done to his wife, kissed her on the cheek and they left. Came in disheveled and left with a gait of sheer dignity. It was wild… The ghosts that must have been in those poor souls. We got to take care of the young vets today. That’s all I can say about this issue
The comments on every other video from this channel say this movie was great. This video’s comments seem to hate it.
Title: The Battle of Okinawa Scene
Reality: no battle scene
And the whole movie was filmed in an area of Sydney Australia that was marked for anew housing estate.
Bro did anyone see that ghostly looking solider at 1:01? Why does he looked cursed!?
The battle scenes in this were waaaaay too OTT Hollywood nonsense!
Alright
Back then japanese people really had balls of steel to fight a losing battle to the last man pretty much. Sure some surrendered but it was very rare.
he said turn the bacon
I bet they all felt different about making fun of doss.
Why did the Japanese allow the rope ladder to remain? Like wasn't the top booby trapped?

M41 Bulldog in Okinawa?
no battle disliked...
沖縄は激戦地ではありますが、崖を登る様な場所はないですよ。平坦な島です
This scene alone makes the d day scene from saving Private Ryan look like the battle of hoth
By this time in the Pacific theater, medics and Corpsmen didn't wear any identifying markers; the Japanese would target anyone with 'Red Cross' armbands or markers on their helmets. Unless they were CO's like Doss, Medics and Corpsmen were authorized to carry side-arms or carbines because the Japanese did not respect any claims to non-combatant status.
Your not in Kansas anymore Dorothy!
this movie is too hollywood for me.
This film actually removed aspects of the real story because people find it too unrealistic... Life is stranger than fiction and Hacksaw Ridge is one of them
No mud
Hi
This movie really ripped my heart out of the fn hell our troops went through;! Haven't we learned yet,war sucks and destroys youth! But,,,, we can't sit by and let other countries try to get away with their evil crap,and evil actions. So ,,,, let out guys kick ass ,and politicians keep your mouths shut,let out guys give attitude adjustments where needed! Bring all our troops home. All of them!!!!
Wonder what genius decided that a projectile vomiting scene fit at 5:28........
I think it was to imply that the soldier's memories were so gruesome that recalling the specific details of the battlefield caused him to vomit
@@robdog02 Understood - as a strategy to be used in a drama / video I see two distinct problems:
1) It is usually shown in the midst of an intense scene such as in a landing craft headed for D-Day beach. Total attn of audience is suddenly treated to a person vomiting which deflates the effectiveness of the scene with a disgusting vision.
2)Some, if not many, will completely either look away or go away from the scene all together.
@@bacoda58 something else I just thought of is that he may be vomiting because he is concussed from the explosions
how can you handle the mayhem of war but not a little puke
@@robdog02 I'm impressed with your penchant for analysis. I mean that. It's refreshing to hear from someone that actually thinks things out, Good on you, man. I can dig what you're saying about the physical reaction to the hell of war. If I were on a landing graft and saw someone throw up it'd be one thing. But to take dramatic video of a re-inaction by actors that is offered to an audience I think that a director shoots himself in the foot by bringing the audience into an intense expectation and dashing it with a vomiting scene. Of course I must admit- that's just me.
Maybe the Japanese should have removed that big cargo net.
Honestly the fact that the Japanese soldiers were even able to hold out as long as they did on Okinawa is a testament to how absolutely incredible they were as soldiers.
Imagine having a fuck ton of destroyers just laying down thousands of munitions on top of you, only for you to have to hop out and fight off entire marine divisions.
the only problem i have with this clip is in 1:55 or near it when a soldier shouts all clear if you know you are behind enemy lines you don't shout that just asking for trouble I'm no military expert but I've seen enough war films to understand that
I'm ex military your right, and wrong. Do yo think the Japs didn't know they were there, especially after the naval bombardment. But I think this was done because the civilians watching don't understand military hand signals. Plus they are all half deaf from al the shooting weapons they have done. You go deaf , well hear BUZZZZZ after a few rounds, happened to me, so can you imagine how bad these guys hearing is.
Except they weren’t behind enemy lines at that point. That portion of the island was controlled and occupied by the US and Allied forces.
@@DKnight5170 fair enough I've most of miss that bit
Either way, I don’t think you have to be a military expert to know that you don’t shout that. When your in a place where the enemy can avoid patrols and raid behind your lines, it’s just asking to be attacked. Hand signals were made for a reason.
@@iammelon7803 At that point in the war, the Japanese were dug in and not about to attack out in the open. Also, how is a column of men going to notice a hand signal when there's a tank and other vehicles coming down the road?
78 anni fa
The invasion of Okinawa was April 1st 1945.
April fools!
And it lasted until June
The 77th Inf Div didn't join the fighting on the island until May. However, what this movie gets wrong is how this wasn't the division's first battle. Doss would have already seen combat on Guam, Leyte, and Ie Shima before Okinawa. They would have been one of the most veteran units there.
@@redaug4212 Ie shima is part of the battle of okinawa
@@maximilianodelrio It's not mainland Okinawa. It's a smaller island off the coast.

WTF did they give a Sgt a grease gun?!?!?! LMAO where is his Thompson???
The M3 replaced the Thompson very quickly on the Pacific Theater from 1944 as it had a cover for the ejector which made it a more reliable weapon, able to endure the extreme conditions of this theater.
@@karljohan3989 also a lot cheaper and faster to mass produce. Fewer moving parts as well
Vince. Man he is the worst actor I have ever seen. So unbelievable in any part he plays.
While i vehemently disagree with your statement I would just like to remind you that Dodgeball exists and he plays the part of a gym owner whose life is hell and has no fucks left pretty well.
@@samanthaleo2590 Please show me a role where that pathetic excuse for an actress is believable. Then I will change my mind. Although for most of our society he would be amazing. Based on their own personal depth, shallow, where they abide.
The US had all that firepower and never bothered to bomb the side of the cliff to make a slope. No wonder you lost and had to resort to nukes!
I think they wanted to keep the cliff from falling on their guys at the bottom.
Gunner: “Did we get em?’”
Guy looking through binoculars at the soldiers under cliff: “Yeah, you got em’”
Because this movie isn’t accurate to what happened irl.
you do know that you can withdraw troops to a safe location before shelling. Leave the thinking to men with brains. Go read a comic book@@iammelon7803
Mel Gibson has done a good job on this great movie
really wish they didn't exaggerate the size of the ridge so much... it wasn't needed... like... at all... in real life the climb was about a 1/4 of what's portrayed... doesn't take anything away from anyone, but to me... they just didnt need to do that... plus they left out the first battle he was in and jumped right Okinawa when in reality, he was also in Guam and the Philippines and saw fierce combat in both actions, and by this time in the war had already earned 2 bronze stars one with the V device... So why they went so far out of their way to make them seem like a "Green" unit at this point in the war, when in fact they were a very experienced unit by this point, is beyond me... they'd all seen combat together in two different actions....
Not saying the movie was bad, just feels like that took too many liberties on a movie that frankly, doesn't need liberties, the true story is great enough on its own...
Thats like them doin another movie about audie murphy without audie murphy and only showing you the battle where he earned the MOH, not his other countless awards or contributions.
Mag kanu po ang ISANG lata po?
Sampung suntok gusto mo?
I saw Hacksaw Ridge in theaters right before I started airborne school. I thought it was the worst war movie I’ve seen in a long time.
Why?
Same here, can’t stand Mel Gibson and this movie is so corny and falls into every Hollywood war movie trope.
