The crazy part is, the real story of Desmond Doss during the war was even more crazy than it appeared on screen. They had to nerf this man because it would have appeared to unrealistic to the audience. What an amazing film.
100% The man was incredible.
Actually, the Lord is incredible, that's why Desmond served Him. But yes, Desmond is also amazing. @@Rick-Rarick
@@KS4RonPauli bet u do think DESMOND IS AMAZING 😂
Watch simple history Desmond doss he went through three big battles
I don’t understand why this man isn’t in our history books. At Hacksaw he saved 150+ men, after 2 other engagements. This is how you fight for your freedom and beliefs!
I mean to be honest I feel that learning about him in school would make us feel less admiring about him and more like it’s a chore to learn about him
Desmond Doss went to war without a weapon but went to war with the ARMOR OF GOD on. Very inspirational.
There is a documentary about Desmond called "The Conscientious Objector". The reason there was never a movie before this is because Desmond was very humble. Hollywood had pursued the story since the 1950's but Desmond left it to his church and once he passed they finally approved telling his story. Plus there are a number of other Andrew Garfield movies that highlight his incredible acting abilities "Tick Tick Boom", "Silence", "Breathe", "Boy A", "The Social Network" to name a few.
Doss was not the first concenous objector to win the medal of honor, sgt york won in ww1 he didn't refuse to take up arms but was still a CO he single handed captured a lit of german soldiers by using his hunting skills,he captured a lot and only killed very few
I watched a interview of a veteran who stormed the beach at normandy on D day which really broke my heart cause as he spoke of his brothers in arms laying down their lives for what we see today he said through his tears he wonders why they bothered as nobody cares or has any respect for anyone or anything anymore.
I feel that we sometimes forget what our brave men did for us and they should be shown more respect and we shouldn't take our freedoms for granted
@@MajorReacts I no doubt like yourself were raised to have respect for our fellow man but unfortunately most were not. My upmost respect goes to the soldiers and their families for the Sacrifices they made. Thank u to your family members that were in or are in the armed services I appreciate everything they have done.
Also thank you for making me smile with your videoes as you keep me smiling through chronic illness and forms of chemo. I even have my nurses watching ur reactions too while in hospital and its quite on night shift here. So from across the Atlantic in UK to u and ur family thank u and God bless.
One of my favorite professors in college said something on day 1 of class that I'll never forget. He was teaching a class on the history of war, and he said that we would be discussing and learning about real events, and not censoring anything or holding back at all when it came to the gristly details, "because those men went through it for real, and we owe it to them to teach what really happened, no matter how uncomfortable." It's important that we talk and learn about the utter hell that people went though, because we owe it to them to not let their experience be forgotten.
History isn't meant to be pretty and presented nicely with glitter and a neat bow. All aspects need to be taught, no matter how bad, because it happened, and we don't want to forget, or risk it happening again.
After I watched this movie I went down a Desmond Doss rabbit hole. This man was incredible and the movie only shows a small portion of the incredible things he did. After he kicked away the grenades and was injured they were carrying him on a stretcher when another grenade near by went off. This man ROLLED OFF THE STRETCHER so that they could use it for another soldier. Due to his injuries he lived the rest of his life with only 1 lung. He built his house WITH ONLY ONE LUNG. I have zero excuses for anything.
My dad served 32 years active duty army in the cavalry he served in Panama and Honduras and Germany when the Berlin wall came down. He served in the 1st gulf war and did 4 more tours the second invasion of Iraq and he had PTSD bad I remember thunder storms were horrible one time he jumped off the couch and dove on the ground yelling where's my rifle. And one time driving down the road and he pulls the emergency brake and yells sniper and takes cover behind the car. It was really sad to see because he is the strongest person I've ever met. Soldiers leave the war but the war never leaves them
The Army said he lowered 150 men down, Doss said it was no more than 50 so that settled on 75, so he mot likely saved even more than that!!
Grandma sounds like a good woman.
In some significant ways, this excellent true story of Desmond Doss was toned down to make it more believable. However, there are some things that were changed that you might want to know about. Doss and his unit had actually taken part in two previous Pacific island invasions before they got to Okinawa, and Doss had actually been decorated with the Bronze Star for Valor in both, so Desmond was already a well respected member of the unit before Hacksaw Ridge. You can understand why they decided to compress the story entirely to the Okinawa campaign to keep the story easier to understand. Some of the other changes they made are also understandable, such as they amped up the drama of the trial a lot, and the situation where he leaves his wife at the altar while he sits in a cell is not quite the way that happened.
The character “Smitty” Ryker was created for the film. The man at the end credit speaking about how he doubted Doss, and the irony of it was that he was saved by him was the actual Captain Jack Glover as portrayed by Sam Worthington and not Vince Vaughn’s Sargent Howell.
Band of Brothers is amazing, and incredibly realistic. Every tiny detail was replicated as close as humanly possible.
Great reaction! My Grandfather was in the Navy as a Gunner and was in the invasion of Okinawa both shooting Kamikaze planes and supporting fire for the Marines on land. He said one Kamikaze plane flew about 15 feet above his head and ended up killing his friend on the next ship. He only spoke to my brother and I late in life about it.
I’m just at the intro, but when you described this as a lot more serious I immediately pictured Vince Vaughan shouting “Private Cornstalk!”
“Unbroken” is another great movie you should check out. It is also based on a true story.
Thanks Major, for giving me something to watch while bedridden. It's helping pass the time
I hope you get better soon
@@MajorReacts thank you. Means a lot. Hurting over here
You need to read up on the real story. He was even more amazing than they portrayed. They dialed it down as they thought the audience wouldn't believe it.
I love in sincere moments or serious ones you add your own humour 😭
” damn boy got that long neck “
I saw it in theaters opening weekend. Always love watching military movies.
My favorite is Platoon
They did build a statue of him. Well deserved. Amazing movie.
Excellent movie, excellent acting, incredible effects and action, and great that it honors a wonderful man.
For more varied performances by Hugo Weaving, he is in The Lord of the Rings, and The Adventures of Pricilla, Queen of the Desert.
This movie really shows what a good actor Vince Vaughn is.
The Purple Heart is a medal awarded to someone killed or wounded while serving. The Medal of Honor is the highest award for military service, all branches, to recognize acts of valor.
Oh Major you are in for a ride...Phenomenal Movie, Phenomenal Directing, Phenomenal Cast a Phenomenal Man RIP Desmond Doss
Major getting busy today and snuck one in on me! You know the drill Family! Spread the word!
Loved how you were praying for Private Doss during the movie. That was great..i feel you.
He was my favorite spiderman also. But i did like the others too!
Isn't it crazy that both Desmond Doss and Joseph Mengele were born at the same time. We're in the same war. Had medical knowledge but one did everything in his knowledge and power to save people and the other used his knowledge and power to destroy them
A satchel is C-4 in a seat cushion size bag with fuse attached used to destroy fortifications, etc.
His father was a World War 1 veteran, he saw action at Belleau Woods, June 1918
Happy you finally watched this one 💜 one of my favorite war movies. This guy was a true hero. Andrew is a phenomenal actor.
I really love that you pause and give your full response to the scene.
The army recorded that he had saved 150 people but Doss being the ever humble guy he was said it couldn't be over 50 and realizing that no one would believe the actually number settled on 75. We humans are capable of such nightmares but we are also capable of so much more and Doss was shinning example of that.
Nice with the Thomas Moore shout out!
Great reaction, Major. welcome back! To propose a movie that has ties to todays news; RIP Paul Reubens... Try 'Blow' from 2001. Based on a true story starring Johnny Depp & Penelope Cruz
"...if you dont hit play on this video"
You good major, im listening.
Even tho i dont know who Thomas Moore is, i was listening.
A comicbook was made about Doss called Hero without a gun.
True courage, like that, is rare.
Talk about, "No weapon formed against me shall prosper."
Congressional Medal of Honor
There actually is a statue to Desmond Doss. Its in Veterans Memorial Park in Collegedale, Tennessee. I wish I could post a picture of it because it is glorious.
If you fancy going down the Doss iceberg please watch The Conscientious Objector which is a incredible documentary about EVERYTHING he actually did and went through. Its what inspired this film and what the interviews come from at the end. Its incredible its on RUclips to watch. It has his brother, sister and his brothers in arms in it telling everything about him. Incredible.
Gomer in full metal jacket handled the hazing and beating slightly different
there is a documetary, about desmond, even spoke to an enemy soldier, that had desmond in his sights, evry time he pulled the trigger, the gun jammed, it would not fire
The Military said that Desmond Doss carried around 100 men to safety both Americans and Japanese. But Doss said it was around 50. So they decided to meet in the middle and say he saved around 75 men
Man, you really gave your all in this movie. I have seen this many times and you got me excited. . Fantastic job
Desmond is who we *should* be aspiring to be. Not everyone can follow his commitment to pacifism, maybe not even in his incredible belief in the true path Jesus sets before us - but his commitment to making the world a better place, and his commitment to duty , and to his fellow man, is something we can all reach for. More of us need to follow Desmond's example - live your life in a way that makes the world a better place for everyone.
RE movies you can only watch once - oh my god yes. There are a number that are my similar list - "watch these, but not with me thanks, I've already been there, and I can't watch it again."
Thanks for sharing your thoughts, and your emotions, with all us Internet Randos out here.
Enjoyed the reaction, this is indeed a phenomenal movie. If liking historical type movies that are mostly accurate, I'd recommend Glory. Its a great watch as well.
There is a book on his life, The Unlikeliest Hero, but I believe it's out of print. If you can find it, it's an amazing story. Much more complete than they could make the movie.
This man really hit me with an All About the Benjamins quote lmao. Seven fitty. Yo, it's fifty, not "seven fitty."
Bro when I watched saving Private I couldn't sleep that night!
something a lot of people don’t even think about is the fact that dispite what desmand did to hal when they were kids they, they were still very close. i was glad to see he survived his deployments as well i wish we saw more of his side too but this will forever be one of my favourite movies
Just came across your channel due to this outstanding film. Must say I appreciate your commentary & respect. Nothing else to add about the story, Doss is a wonderful example of faith. [For another movie that is on par I will suggest "Unbroken" which tells the true story of Louie Zamporini, another WWII veteran. Absolutely amazing]
My dad served on Okinawa as a marine in WWll. There’s a great documentary called “The Conscientious Objecter” about Doss on RUclips.
I currently live a few miles from the real Hacksaw Ridge here on Okinawa. Glad you enjoyed this movie. The real story is crazier. If you want pics from there let me know!
The nightmares "like the one in foxhole" stays with you till the day you die, the screams and crying ive heard from my family and friends is so intense and very heartbreaking. Theres over 2500 Medal of Honor recipients... Each one has an absolutely incredible breathtaking story that are Never told and hardly remembered. Thanks for your respect man, for some of us, this is our life.
Awesome movie, awesome reactor 😉 glad you're back my guy.
I was a combat medic in the army.. i love this film but i wish they wouldve shown some of the medic training.. imo that was much more difficult than basic.. doss is in the medic museum in texas
My maternal grandfather was in Pacific during WWII and the only thing he would ever tell anyone was that the scariest moment of his life was lying on a beach that was exploding all around him and he realized he was either going to live or die and their was *nothing* he could do about it. My mom said he was crying at the time and refused to talk about it at all again. Though he had night terrors until the day he died. I can't even imagine that kind of fear.
There is also a book about DESMOND DOSS: The UNLIKELIST Hero!!!
Every reaction I’ve watched to this, everyone is always surprised it was directed by Mel Gibson. But the man does not make bad movies. And he has an uncommon skill for making gore feel honest rather than gratuitous and using brutality to say something beautiful. He may be problematic, but he makes damned good movies.
And yes, Andrew Garfield is always phenomenal. You should see him in Under the Banner of Heaven.
I think the quote is Better to die on one's feet than to live on one's knees. - Emiliano Zapata it was a quote from the mexican civil war fro. What i found.
Desmond's DAD was a WORLD WAR ONE VETERAN!!!
I think this one is much more rewatch able than most war movies cuz there's so much more to it than just the war!
My dude: they cannot put mines or claymores down on land they're advancing on. If they do many of them will be killed by their own boobytraps when they move.
At the beginning, Desmond knocked his brother out with a brick. And then his dad was gonna punish him with the belt. However, when the car fell on, the young boy. Desmond used a brick To prop the car up and use his belt to help save the boy's life. If you wanna watch a true, more accurate documentary of Desmond, watch the conscientious objector where it's all desmond interviews and the people he served.
damn, you need to watch Andrew Garfield in Tick, Tick, Boom. unbelievable performance...
in the movie, it says desmond saved 75, he actualy saved alot more and did alot more, they agreed on 75, because if they acutaly put in what desmond did, they thought audience would not believe it, there are a few life stories of desomd on you tube
Faith can move mountains. Figuratively and literally. If you give men faith and a reason to live, fight and die for, they will do more than expected. Because hope is the fuel to the engine.
Thomas Doss (the father) was in WW1 he severed in the battle of Belleau Wood. A 26 day long battle that was almost daily hand to hand combat. This was the battle that the Marines were given their nickname Devl Dogs by the Greman Army because they fought so fiercely and refused to retreat even though both the British and French had chosen to retreat. So Desmond's father had lived through hell, probably suffered from both PTSD and survivor's guilt.
This movie compresses time. By the time Hacksaw ridge Desmond had been in 3 beach assaults. His company knew of his selfless heroic attitude long before Hacksaw. Yes Mel Gibson didn't show some of Doss's action because as he said " the audience would think it was all Hollywood Make-Believe" what Doss did. Was after being wounded and being carried out on the litter. The litter crew came under heavy fire. They took cover. Doss spotted a wounded soldier out in the open. Rolled off the litter, dryg himself to the wounded soldier and started giving him treatment. Doss refused to get back on the litter until the other soldier was carried out first.
FURY and HACKSAW RIDGE seem to have been made in direct response to SAVING PRIVATE RYAN and to counter the heinous message of that movie.
In the fictitious FURY the Norman character is set up to be the polar opposite of the Upham character of SPR. So where Upham at the end of the movie kills the German soldier in cold blood to show that he has finally learned that to be successful in war you have to abandon your morality, Norman however, never compromises. And as a result the author of the story depicts Norman as the only one who survives. And although the others in his crew, having succumbed to the tempations of war don't make it, they do however, find the redemption they desire by sacrificing themselves for their fellow soldiers.
It is a theme in FURY but Mel Gibson makes it much clearer with his decision to bring Desmond Doss's story to the big screen. Therein we see in this true story how much one man can accomplish if he hangs onto his integrity no matter how much temptation there may be to compromise on it. And it is also testimony to the power of faith as what he did was actually a collaborative effort of God and man. No one could have done what he did on their own. And truthfully no one would have even attempted it without faith.
Side notes. The Navy counted over 100 people saved by Doss, But humble Doss only owned up to 50 so when they awarded the medal they compromised reducing officially count to 75. It is also my understanding that in that final assault after Doss's prayer no allied soldier died. And the reason yu've not heard of Doss is likely because he was opposed to anyone making a movie of him. So it wasn't until after he died that his story could be told.
For another great movie about a conscientious objector who ended up winning the congressional medal of honor take a look at the Academy Award winner for best picture in 1941, SEARGENT YORK starring Gary Cooper. It is not as gory as HACKSAW and it is a little hokey in parts. But it still holds up as a good watch detailing the heroics of the most decorated allied soldier of WWI.
Hollywood sent another moh awardee to visit doss in the late 50's. Audie Murphy the most decorated soldier of ww2 showed, put out Hollywood's offer of 50,000 for the rights to his story. Doss cordially turned the offer down.
A documentary the conscientious objector was made in 2004. It is outstanding! Interviews with men who served with doss and were astounded by his lack of fear and continued bravery in going out to treat and drag the wounded back to safety. He was awarded two bronze stars with v device for valor in the battles to retake guam and then the Philippines.the descriptions of how they fought to stay alive and protect each other brought up emotions that had been buried for 60 years. Stacking dead comrades like cordwood, walking through blood pools up to their ankles. The one veteran said he still had nightmares about that.Doss said what he did was to the glory of God, it wasn't his to sell.
The irony is that if Doss at any time had compromised his belief and used his rifle on top of Hacksaw Ridge he would’ve become a target and died. Thus not being able to save the lives he did!
Andrew is an amazing actor who can literally jump into any role. Having Mel directing this movie helped. Great cast, grat director = great movie. One of my favorites
I always love your reactions. ☺️
4:35 their dad is a veteran of the First World War. WWI was… well, as war goes, awful. New technologies advanced the work of death by leaps and bounds. In WWI you had horse drawn cannon and cavalry going up against tanks and machine guns. It was just broken. And then add fire, gas, bombs, mortars, and near constant machine gun fire.
Their dad has major PTSD, but at the time nobody understood PTSD and just called it “shell shock.” If you get a minute look up some videos of actual people with shell shock. They aren’t even themselves anymore. It literally destroys them.
That’s why their dad is the way he is.
FYI a purple star is for being shot 38:32
Another great war film from Pacific is Terence Malicki's The Thin Red Line (1998) and to see something completely different view from WWII: Das Boot (1981) is phenomenal war film. Its not about heroism. Its about trying to survive in the most claustrophobic environment you can imagine. The haunting soundtrack, still gives me goose bumps.
Hugo weaving was elrond in the lord of the rings, red skull in captain america, he did a really famous voice but cant remember what movie it was
He was the voice of Megatron.
@@samanthawylie893 I know buy is not the voice i associate with Megatron I try to get that out of my head I can't hear Peter culling with Hugo weaving it don't sound right sorry this is s me thing
Funny calling the dad agent Smith 👍
Thanks for the video. I enjoyed it.
Time stamp 8:15 he got that long neck…😆that land B4 time long neck ass🤣
(If U Kno U Kno)
Hugo Weaving is also in Cloud Atlas (2012), with Tom Hanks and Halle Berry. It's an amazing movie.
Vince was in Rudy great football movie.
I love this reaction, this is definitely one of the best to this movie, and since it impressed you so much here is the information that Desmond Doss was one of 3 Americans who served out of patriotism and refused to touch a gun for reasons of faith (the other two were named Thomas William Bennett and Joseph Guy LaPointe Jr.).
Andrew Garfield is such a good actor!
God bless Desmond Doss and his family! God bless all the courageous veterans with nerves of steel who risked everything and selflessly sacrificed so much to protect our countries and preserve the freedoms we enjoy today! God bless all the souls - military and civilian - that we have lost in times of war! God bless America! God bless us all and grant us peace!
What comes before 2? The answer will give you an idea of the war Desmond's father fought in. Do they teach anything in school anymore? I give you credit for looking it up.
Agent Smith is also Elrond LORD OF THE RINGS.
Medal of Honor is the highest medal in the US Military
And have you ever seen an interview with him? When you find out he's British lol
Anotger movie about a congessional medal of honor winner is sgt york, its incredably accurate about his story, it was made in the 60s and is in black and white so no awesome effects but his family insisted on the movie being as accurate as possible, he comes from jamestown tennessee which is 21 miles from where i live, thw road is so winding 21 milwa takea an hour to drive, but no reactions on yourtube about that movie, cause hacksaw ridge is so popular, but i cabt reccond you doing a reaction to enough its so amazing
Love this one
My favorite movie ever
You should watch We Were Soldiers. It’s another Mel Gibson movie. And The Passion of the Christ. It was directed by Mel Gibson and Jim Caviziel from The Count of Monte Cristo portrays Jesus.
Hey major fam ❤
If you haven’t seen it, try We were Soldiers
Such an amazingly heroic story and it’s impossible to watch this and not cry #JustOneMoreGod
This is a remake ish movie there is a movie from the 80s about his life that I think is even better because it tells us about Desmond so much more
Have you seen "Braveheart" yet? If not, I highly recommend it.
Hal fought in Europe and doss fought in the pacific
Fantastic movie. If you want to laugh your butt off Hot Tub Time Machine pt 1 & 2😂🤣
coming soon
