awsome

Gibson does a really good job in the "first two acts" of developing the character of Desmond Doss, why he was a conscientious objector, and what it might have been like to be a CO in WW2. Act 3 is the battle, and it's typical Gibson violence (extremely graphic and gratuitous). At least 20 minutes are nothing but bullets, flame throwers, and hand grenades.

Too violent; attack/fighting scenes too long and graphic

Good war scenes but the movie in general felt really heavy handed. The audience is hit on the head with the message.
