The story of Desmond Doss, and his journey to become a medic as an observant objector in World War II. During the battle at Hacksaw Ridge he saved the lives of 75 people by himself and earned him The Congressional Medal of Honor. However, his story is not one of reluctance it's one of resilience. Doss made an oath to God that he would never pick up a weapon and kill anybody. So, when he volunteers for the war he knows that he faces ridicule, hardship, and possibly jail time as he shows everyone that he is not going into battle with any weapons.

This is THE BEST picture of the year. I can not say enough good thing about this film. There are not a whole lot of films that have every been created that I could say I would not change something about. This is one of the handful of films that I can say that this is a  near perfect film. There is nothing I would change even if I had the chance too. Every cast member, every note in the music, every visual and sound effect was epically crafted into the film that we see today.
