positive · AI labelView post →I went to the movies this weekend and saw a trailer for Mel Gibson’s new film “Flight Risk.” Nowhere in the trailer is Gibson mentioned by name (not even a top credits list!), and instead there was a note, “From the visionary director of Braveheart, Apocalypto, and Hacksaw Ridge” lmao
neutral · AI labelView post →Just watched the movie Hacksaw Ridge. Got me thinking can people in the military turn down an order because they disagree with it on sensible grounds? Like Trump ordering them to invade CN?.
neutral · AI labelView post →The film "Hacksaw Ridge" starring Andrew Garfield depicts these events. The Library's Veterans History Project is home to the Desmond Doss collection, (www.loc.gov/item/afc2001...) which contains a video interview with him from 2003, his Medal of Honor certificate, photos, and written testimonial.

neutral · AI labelView post →Hacksaw Ridge was the highlight of my #LastFourWatched for this #LetterboxdFriday First half was fun (Vince Vaughn was an excellent hardass sargeant). Second half was an uncomfortably uncompromising portrayal of a battle. Great film.
positive · AI labelView post →It was informative to interview him when he was promoting “Hacksaw Ridge” The film is dir. by Mel Gibson and Vaughn was *frosty* when the topic of Gibson's past was broached. A showbiz veteran, he's no doubt had much media training in his career ... and yet www.chicagotribune.com/2016/11/03/v...

One man, no gun, and a soul strong enough to walk into hell and pull others out. You don’t watch it — you feel it. #MustWatch #HacksawRidge #CourageUnderFire youtu.be/802_EJMQbV8?...

negative · AI labelView post →Not a TCM classic, but an incredible film based on a true story. Hacksaw Ridge, Andrew Garfield, 2016

His story inspired the 2016 film Hacksaw Ridge. #ww2 #pacific #hacksawridge

neutral · AI labelView post →Finally got around to watching Hacksaw Ridge. What a tremendous film about courage and conviction. Andrew Garfield was brilliant at the part. Desmond Doss himself was phenomenal.
positive · AI labelView post →For a second I thought you meant that you watched Hacksaw Ridge in class.

neutral · AI labelView post →My husband and I are on a war movie kick. We’ve watched Hacksaw Ridge, Black Hawk Down, Saving Private Ryan, and we’re in the middle of Band of Brothers. I will now take questions on my opinions about said movies, because I definitely have some.
neutral · AI labelView post →Thing is... on the movie side there have been plenty of conservative filmmakers who made good movies, be it John Millus on Conan the Barbarian or Mel GIbson (yes, I know) with Hacksaw Ridge. But the Christian filmmaker approach (i.e. God's Not Dead model) is so lazy it feels amateurish.

neutral · AI labelView post →Fury is the most entertaining, though it has a number of places where it stumbles. The Thin Red Line is Malik at his worse, over stuffed cast, dull meandering story and just over stuffed laborious scene after another. Hacksaw Ridge is worth it just for Hugo Weaving’s parts.. wow. The problem with Hacksaw Ridge is what Desmond Doss did is just that incredible that Gibson had to dumb it down because there is no way the audience would believe it. Unfortunately, the end result is a real mess of…
positive · AI labelView post →Fury is excellent but extremely depressing. Thin Red Line is a Terrance Malick movie so kinda....out there and not terribly realistic as I recall.. Haven't seen Hacksaw Ridge.
neutral · AI labelView post →He'll be back. Shit man, Mel Gibson disappeared for like 10 years after going all racist anti-semite on the phone yelling at his girlfriend that one time. Just laid low, then directed Hacksaw Ridge and everyone was just like "hey! He apologized, and this film was alright!"
positive · AI labelView post →Just rewatched Hacksaw Ridge (trying to remember what felt so very off about that movie when I first saw it) and other than Andrew Garfield and Vince Vaughn, *every* actor is Australian
neutral · AI labelView post →The Nice Guys was the best movie of 2016. Better than Moonlight. Better than La La Land. Better than Fences, Hacksaw Ridge, Arrival. It should have won Best Picture by a landslide.
neutral · AI labelView post →It’s not always the case but like Top Gun: Maverick? Action movie 1917? War movie Dunkirk? War movie Hacksaw Ridge? War movie Mad Max: Fury Road? Action movie American Sniper? War movie
neutral · AI labelView post →I'm surprised nobody has mentioned Hacksaw Ridge. The movie tells a true story based on Desmond Doss, an American conscientious objector who signed up for the army and became a medic. He won the Congressional Medal of Honor without firing a shot.
positive · AI labelView post →And that’s the most he could say, “we fought so you would never have to. It was a war to end all wars”. He expressed a few stories exactly like the movie ‘ Hacksaw Ridge’ and his remorse for Highschool friends that didn’t make it home
neutral · AI labelView post →FWIW, I wasn't planning to watch The Fast and the Furious (I've seen it many times!), but it was the first movie I thought of that fit this hypothetical. Two movies I'm zeroing in on from my watchlist: Hacksaw Ridge Memories of Murder

positive · AI labelView post →I just watched Hacksaw Ridge which was incorrectly listed under courtroom dramas because of one scene lol. Film was alright, although had some weird revelling in killing for a film about a conscientious objector and a few other odd choices. Performances were great tho.

neutral · AI labelView post →i am starting a movie series in my home on Black History and WW2. knocked out Harriet Tubman, Fury, Hacksaw Ridge, Selma. if anyone has suggestions.. I have prime until July, so I am trying to get them in before. I think we are going to DC this spring, too. for the museums before they close them
neutral · AI labelView post →tonight's movie is Hacksaw Ridge. Watching those WW2 movies with the children to establish Nazis are the enemy.
neutral · AI labelView post →The best part of this movie is the marketing, which promises a movie from “the director of Apocalypto and Hacksaw Ridge” and not Mel “Racist Asshole” Gibson, because the studio knows the director THEY hired is toxic af.
neutral · AI labelView post →Here comes a new movie from the Academy Award-winning Director of Braveheart, Appcalypto, and Hacksaw Ridge! Who is it? Well, we just told you! You don’t need to know his name! DON’T look it up!
neutral · AI labelView post →this reminds me; I saw a trailer for Mel Gibson's new film. It was hyped as "From The Director Of Apocalypto & Hacksaw Ridge", his name never actually shown on-screen. So Hollywood accepts that he's too toxic to publicise, but not too toxic to be allowed to make a film with a budget of $26.5 million

neutral · AI labelView post →Why do I love Hacksaw Ridge so much? I hate basically every other war movie but I rewatch this one every year. I would watch more movies about the stretcher-bearers in different wars.
positive · AI labelView post →*Lone Survivor* is a great example of this, and a true story. The true story is actually crazier than the film, of all things. Kind of like *Hacksaw Ridge*.
neutral · AI labelView post →My favourite war film of the era. Up there with The Longest Day & Hacksaw Ridge
positive · AI labelView post →12 October 1945 Private Desmond Doss of the medical corps became the first conscientious objector to win the Congressional Medal of Honour. He had distinguished himself in the Battle of Okinawa by saving 75 men. His exploits featured in the 2016 Hollywood film Hacksaw Ridge. #History #WW2
neutral · AI labelView post →I wanted to re-watch the excellent Andrew Garfield movie Hacksaw Ridge. However all the rentals were $3.99, so I ordered the DVD from Amazon for $6.99. It should be delivered today. #AndrewGarfield #HacksawRidge
positive · AI labelView post →Yup I have no doubt. Just watched a documentary special about the medic (Desmond Doss) behind the movie Hacksaw Ridge. The only conscientious objector to ever recieve the Meddal of Honor. Quite an amazing story but he paid for it the rest of his life with severe PTSD.
neutral · AI labelView post →Hacksaw Ridge is phenomenal, imo, but it's probably the most violent movie I've ever watched. But I feel like it kind of needed to be? And it was very unglamorous violence because it's from the perspective of a medic who actually has to try to fix people who get wounded in combat.
positive · AI labelView post →Not seen Oppenheimer yet, I know what am I like. Hacksaw Ridge is a great film, Andrew Garfield was brilliant. Dunkirk I found a little stolid. Yep 34 degrees here in South Wales and no AC anywhere🥵. Just been switched from one type of anti depressant to another to help regulate sleep.
