Flawed, but entertaining, Hacksaw Ridge celebrates a pacifist in a time when killing was currency, and is a welcome reminder of the brutality of the battlefield in our own modern times, when war is fought at the push of a button.

[Doss'] is a story you probably didn't know, and will be glad you did. Gibson does well by it.

Hacksaw Ridge is being touted as Gibson's comeback. Is it also an atonement? What's clear is that Gibson has made a film about family, faith, love and forgiveness all put to the test in an arena of violent conflict - a movie you don't want to miss.

There's no doubt that this is confident, striking, film-making and if it merely serves as the final step in Gibson's rehabilitation and allows him to forge ahead with his new career as a director of true vision and power.

An imposing war film that is very close to the classics of the genre and the spectacular return of Mel Gibson to the direction. [Full review in Spanish]

Hacksaw Ridge is a worthy honoring of the real-life Doss -- portrayed by the British-raised Andrew Garfield -- even if it does feel, at times, as traditionally melodramatic as your standard 1950s MGM big-screen release.

War is hell, but Hacksaw Ridge sacrifices that truth in favour of something far more insincere.
February 15, 2017
Gibson's vision of war is bloodthirsty and realistic, but hopeful. Seeing kindness and bravery, self-sacrifice, and selflessness in such a brutal context is refreshing. [Full review in Spanish]

The battle scenes in "Hacksaw Ridge" are among the most violent captured on film - and also the most urgent.

If the film's director were anyone but Gibson, a fixture on or even atop Hollywood's enemies list, it would be expecting several Oscar nominations.

Gibson has made a movie that's nearly pathological in its love of violence-but he nonetheless counterbalances its amoral pleasures with an understanding of the psychological devastation that war wreaks.

The weakest of this year's nine Best Picture Oscar nominees may not deserve its lofty spot, but it's still a fairly effective movie in its own right.
