ANDREW GARFIELD IS ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE!!! Hackaw Ridge Full Movie Reaction Watch Along: / thereelrejects LIQUID IV: Visit http://www.liquidiv.com & use Promo Code: REJECTS With Andrew Garfield starring in Luca Guadagnino's After the Hunt later this year, Andrew & John give their HACKSAW RIDGE Reaction, Recap, Commentary, Analysis & Spoiler Review!! Andrew Gordon and John Humphrey take on Mel Gibson’s powerful WWII biographical drama Hacksaw Ridge (2016), spotlighting one of the most heroic and unlikely war stories in American history. Based on the true story of Desmond Doss, a devout Seventh-day Adventist and conscientious objector who saved 75 men during the Battle of Okinawa without ever carrying a weapon, the film delivers intense battlefield realism and a moving portrait of faith and courage. Andrew Garfield (The Amazing Spider-Man, Tick, Tick... Boom!) stars as Desmond Doss in an Oscar-nominated performance, capturing the medic’s unwavering pacifism and quiet strength. Teresa Palmer (Lights Out, Warm Bodies) plays Dorothy Schutte, Desmond’s devoted wife, while Hugo Weaving (The Matrix, The Lord of the Rings) portrays his war-haunted father, Tom Doss. Rachel Griffiths (Six Feet Under, Muriel's Wedding) plays Bertha Doss, Desmond’s supportive mother. The film also stars Sam Worthington (Avatar, Terminator Salvation) as Captain Glover, Vince Vaughn (Wedding Crashers, True Detective) in a memorable dramatic turn as the tough Sergeant Howell, and Luke Bracey (Point Break, Elvis) as Smitty, Desmond’s fellow soldier and eventual ally. From harrowing basic training confrontations to the unflinching combat at Hacksaw Ridge itself, the movie features unforgettable scenes like Desmond’s night-long rescue of the wounded, his prayerful mantra “Please Lord, help me get one more,” and the climactic cliffside descent with wounded soldiers in tow. With brutal intensity & spiritual depth, Hacksaw Ridge is both a visceral war film and a moving testament to nonviolence and conviction.
