This movie helps you see the inner strength that resides in the human being. I’ve watched it a half dozen times and it never fails to bring tears to my eyes when the other men in his unit realize he is not a coward but maybe the bravest person they have ever met. The book itself is awesome and the movie brings out the salient points of who Desmond Doss is. He is a shining example why his is called the “Greatest Generation”.
I cried non stop watching this movie..and am crying through the interviews....what a touching story depicted so brilliantly...its hard to believe it actually happened but for the fact I know God is real....💙
I had not went to see a movie with my dad in over forty years, but when Hacksaw Ridge was released, I knew my dad being a veteran, would love to see it, I’ll never forget the hug and the thank you for taking him.
sadly mel gibson is hated in hollywood,hacksaw was the the best movie i have seen in many years,i will be surprised if he ever wins another oscar,though it should have sweeped the evening
You know Desmond was my great great great grandfather and his kid was my grandpa’s dad and my nana is there kid and my dad is there kid then it’s me so I’m related to them my last name is Doss 🥳
@@robertlewis1965 so what, (according to YOU) did they get wrong? Because majority of things I've heard is its spot on including the 75 men being actually reserved in how many (over 100) that Doss saved!!
@@jasonmacneil2256 Read the story , read the official citation . They compromised @75 rescued , Doss said 50 , officer said 100 they met in the middle . The only time Doss touched a gun was to use a broken rifle stock as a splint for his own arm . He NEVER used a rifle to tow/drag the Sgt. to safety . His BIBLE was also not recovered like in the movie . Doss was on ship , got word back to his buddies , then , they went searched the battlefield for DESMOND DOSS ' BIBLE , which was then returned to him . Read the story!!!
Hero of heroes!!! His courage and selflessness and determination are absolutely beyond astounding and awe-inspiring. One of the bravest men ever lived on this planet! ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
Mel Gibson is the best actor and director of his time! The world needs to wake up and smell the coffee, as they say! He is of course my favourite actor etc in the world! RESPECT Mel…:)👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻🍾🍾🍾🍾👏👏👏👏🍾🍾🍾😀
I had to search to know who he was... I hear so many names as I live in a country where theaters = best thing we have to do. So many people know so much about movies here and its a bit weird to believe that you may love someone without knowing them. I'm not saying you did not do your researches, but maybe there is a completely different guy behind his interviews. Love what you have and appreciate and like what you believe to be good... eventually it may lead to actual love :) Although do tell me why I would be wrong that you love him if you deem it right to disprove my conclusion on the subject. Its a strong feeling after all... and the definition doesnt belong in my hands alone. He is a good actor! Not going to argue that.
I WATCHED THE MOVIE 🎬 TWICE AND I ENJOYED 😉 IT. REAL HERO DESMOND DOSS RISKING 👋 LIFE BEHIND JAPANESE ENEMY LINES TO ♥ SAVE 75 COMRADES. SALUTE AND RESPECT 🙏 DESMOND DOSS. R.I.P HERO DESMOND DOSS.
Even his own "buddies" beat him up, they tried to "squeeze" him out but the PRESSURE only made him stronger, Like a Lump of Coal under pressure Desmond Doss was a DIAMOND in the Rough...
It was the God of the Sabbath that helped him when you stand up for your faith He will stand up for you, he didn’t disobey the 10 commandments ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Why not make sure that you are truly saved by Jesus Christ and practice this way. Remorsefully confess with your heart your sins to Jesus Christ who is God and tell Him that you right now are repenting of your sins and you want to be born again of the Spirit from above. Tell Jesus that you are remorsefully sorry for breaking His commandments and that you are begging for forgiveness from Him. Allow His blood from the cross to wash away your sins. After this is done with your heart successfully the Holy Spirit will come to live within you and He will rebuild you from the inside out. Look for signs that you are saved. Things like spreading the good news from Jesus, getting other people saved, a craving for the word of God, reading the Bible, etc… These things are known as a calling and fruit bearing. If you're not bearing fruit then keep doing it. Sometimes it takes time to get saved. Read Matthew chapter 13 from the King James Bible. God bless!!!
"I don't even know if he knew how he did it," oh, Desmond knew exactly what "mysterious" power got him through another day in war. It was God's power and if he died, it was God's doing, if he lived, it was God's doing. His bible was his only weapon during the war.
"Not by Might ...Not by Power...But by MY SPIRIT, says the LORD God Almighty! Amen...Zechariah 4:6 Then he answered and spoke unto me, saying, This is the word of the Lord unto Zerubbabel, saying, Not by might, nor by power, but by my spirit, saith the Lord of hosts.
Difficult to find appropriate words for this exceptional man, Desmond established a whole new pedigree of exceptional heroism, with almost indescribable bravery, what a God fearing man, no retreat, just raw bone courage, and determination.
oh GOD!!! i just don't know why i burst into tears watching this movie....his faith in GOD is the only weapon he had!!! and everything in the war went different...
If the movie was twice as long,it would still not show DOSS to be the HERO that he really was. For the REAL story of HACKSAW RIDGE, read THE UNLIKELIEST HERO. I read the book in 1967,when I was 9 years old.
@@CrystallyLavender " THE UNLIKELIEST HERO " ( Pacific Press 1966 ) Written as a young persons book , NO vulgarities , in language you would be proud to have your 9 year old to use at the dinner table , with your 90 year old great grandmother present ! It's the book that got me hooked on reading for pleasure !
Desmond Doss, I would rate that man and soldier with Audie Murphy and Sgt Alvin York. What a helluva story God bless those men for what they did during War.
Never watch the same movie in cinema for twice. This is an exception. What a great movie
I did the same!

there is no need to have the nude meathead in the movie. really stupid
Dude for real. Tears every single time.

Brothers and sisters of Adventist church say Amen... our brother Desmond was truly a hero
Amen
Amen.. Proud seventh day adventist here
Desmond Doss. The first and only conscientious objector to date, to have received the Medal of Honor. The example of what a HERO looks like.
Its the hand of God that protected him and his strong conviction n faith and love for humanity, exactly how Jesus Christ wants us to be❤❤
Desmon is the best soldier in America we love him from Philippines 🇵🇭

A film everyone should see
Everytime This movie made my eyes filled with tears
Even his own "buddies" beat him up, they tried to "squeeze" him out but the PRESSURE only made him stronger, Like a Lump of Coal under pressure Desmond Doss was a DIAMOND in the Rough...
That news anchor gets the number wrong it was 75 not 70. Anyway love how Mel captured this story.
Great movie
Desmond doss and Audie Murphy are two of the greatest heroes of WWII
Battle scenes on par with saving private ryan
God bless I pray you all come too Christ and turn from sin
"...yin and yang the come together." Godless Hollywood.
I’m Desmond’s great great great grandson I’m not joking i know his kids kids I eat Christmas dinner with them every Christmas
My last name is Doss
i dont get it,i think he was an angel himself....how?he just-wow...what an honor
It was the God of the Sabbath that helped him when you stand up for your faith He will stand up for you, he didn’t disobey the 10 commandments ❤️❤️❤️❤️

Oh boy
Spider man
Guys I'm private do-s I'm not dead I'm in this video
OMG ANDREW GARFIELD
this is not the right guy I think
meanwhile nowdays war is all about religion
This movie made cry amazing story.
Same here
That man had a lot of faith and will to save that one more and we can hope if we get in a war like that we can show a part of him in each of us
Seventh-day Adventists around the world are proud of this man!
It just sucks that im born in 2009 and he died 2006
I wish im bkrn in 1999 so i could met him
I was born the year he died and wish I could meet him sooo frickin bad
I was, and I didn't. Wanted to though. Made plans to see him in 07, but found out he died
"I don't even know if he knew how he did it," oh, Desmond knew exactly what "mysterious" power got him through another day in war. It was God's power and if he died, it was God's doing, if he lived, it was God's doing. His bible was his only weapon during the war.
Perhaps it was also his genuine faith, knowing that the BIBLE is true. His faith was certainly a Shield.
"Not by Might ...Not by Power...But by MY SPIRIT, says the LORD God Almighty! Amen...Zechariah 4:6
Then he answered and spoke unto me, saying,
This is the word of the Lord unto Zerubbabel, saying, Not by might, nor by power, but by my spirit, saith the Lord of hosts.
desmond did not know anything. he just thought he knew.
If you watch this movie be prepared to cry, because you will!
I have no idea why they called him a conscientious objector. Seriously he went to war. The exact opposite of a conscientious objector.
Difficult to find appropriate words for this exceptional man, Desmond established a whole new pedigree of exceptional heroism, with almost indescribable bravery, what a God fearing man, no retreat, just raw bone courage, and determination.
oh GOD!!! i just don't know why i burst into tears watching this movie....his faith in GOD is the only weapon he had!!! and everything in the war went different...
Faith isn't a weapon.
First you use the Lord's name in vain, then you state you dont know WHY this movie made you CRY?? Seriously?? Pathetic.
If the movie was twice as long,it would still not show DOSS to be the HERO that he really was. For the REAL story of HACKSAW RIDGE, read THE UNLIKELIEST HERO. I read the book in 1967,when I was 9 years old.
Thank you for sharing that, I’m definitely going to get the book. He is one of the greatest human beings and soldiers ever lived! Hero of heroes!!! ♥️

Awesome movie, cast and acting. Desmond Doss and incredible human being RIP Hero.
Desmond Doss, I would rate that man and soldier with Audie Murphy and Sgt Alvin York. What a helluva story God bless those men for what they did during War.
I thought Sgt. York was the first conscientious objector to get the MOH.
As DESMOND
