I watched Hacksaw ridge last night. 2 out of 5 stars. It was based on a true story which is amazing, but the details are so over dramatised I was calling BS on many of the scenes.

The US troops in this movie were issued with those amazing 200 round "Never Reload" ammo clips. In fact I dont think I saw a single reload on either side.

The main character turns into the Super Soldat at the end of the movie and _SPOILER ALERT_ air kicks a grenade back at the enemy Maradonna style which then explodes and injures him lightly!!!  I called BS!

And the religious overtones irritate me. Mel Gibson is a well known Biblical Christian and I understand he wants to make movies that reflect this, BUT when it goes beyond faith into mysticism it loses me.

Battle scenes 3 out of 5, but they are very action packed Hollywood.

Next up - American Sniper


Agreed. I didn't like the scene where the BAR gunner holds up a dead body to shield himself from fire while one-hand hip shooting killing everyone in his way. Reminded me of how I used to play those FPS video games.

Hacksaw ridge, I have to agree with some of the comments about this movie. There is a lot of action but everyone seems to have a "John Wayne Special" gun that never needs to be reloaded. The scene with the BAR  being fired one handed while holding a body as a shield was over the top. I have fired a BAR, it has a hell of a kick and is best fire in the prone position. I have fired it from the hip and kneeling but after the 1st round it is hard to control let alone hit anything. It is also a heavy weapon, I found the M60 machine gun much easier to fire from the hip. Firing from the should unsupported can be done but it is only asking for trouble. Shocked
