Rating: R

Written by Robert Schenkkan, Andrew Knight

Directed by Mel Gibson

Andrew Garfield, Sam Worthington, Luke Bracey, Teresa Palmer,

Hacksaw Ridge was nominated for six Academy Awards, including Best Picture, Best Actor, Best Director and came away with wins for Sound Mixing and Film Editing. Andrew Garfield stars as Army Medic Desmond T. Doss who has a personal code not to kill anyone, which is a pretty stark contrast to the soldiers he’s beside during World War II. Despite his code not to kill, Doss makes history as the first American to win the Medal of Honor and he didn’t even use his gun.

Mel Gibson directed the movie and is his best work since We Were Soldiers more than a decade ago. If you’re a fan of war movies and enjoy the drama that comes with that, you should check out Hacksaw Ridge on DVD or Blu-ray today. With all the Oscar and Golden Globe nominations behind it, you know it’s going to be a good movie that’s worth your time and your money.
