Impressive performances all around and Andrew Garfield is surprisingly very effective and who the hell ever saw Spider-Man suiting up as an army medic carrying wounded soldiers overnight?.
Hacksaw Ridge's detailed gruesomeness brought the added heaviness in its story, you'll see the bombs producing a destructive force and flying legs comes with it and bullets penetrating into the skin to the flesh of its victims.
This is Mel Gibson's first movie to direct after a some sort of hiatus in movie directing after Apocalypto (2006), Hacksaw Ridge is indeed his comeback film and he definitely earned a lot of respect again. Gibson has a thing with gore, his The Passion Of The Christ (2004) also dealt with a lot of blood and pain, same thing we saw in Hacksaw Ridge, both were great films in its respected area, so I think, gore is what his signature style should be 'cause he's good at it.
The movie is a decent retelling of one of the most heartfelt and incredible stories during the WWII, the part I'm looking forward to see is Doss saying these words: "Please Lord, help me get one more. Help me get one more." and God! That was my favorite slice of the film.
