Review of Hacksaw Ridge

It's important to examine the hero of the story and what make him different.The first is,of course he is real. This kind of remind me of the movie "sully".While sully is an American hero that saves the lives of 200 passengers,Desmond saves the lives of 75 fellow soldiers.Except for Desmond, the battlefield is much more fierce and complicated.Desmond fights against the enemy,human's physical limitation,and his belief in his faith.

It almost seems as if the whole world is against him and one man has to fight against the world for his true belief.In fact,it's Desmond's faith that sets him as the outlier and as The unwelcome,despite his willingness to contribute to the welfare of his country,let alone to die for his country.thus,despite the harsh treatment by his fellow soldiers,he is insists on doing what he believes and what he thinks is right.And he survives in the unimaginary situations and become everyone else's savior.

What makes Demond special is that he is well below perfection and he is a hero with many flaws.He is shaped by maybe unfortunate circumstances to become the man he is today.Yet his belief in humanity and in his own religion makes him a hero in his own way.
