I am not a fan of Mel Gibson,but sure as hell he did make a good movies. Mel Gibson returns to the director's chair with this war epic based on the true life story of Private Desmond Doss, who served in the Army as a medic during the Battle of Okinawa during World War ll. He also happened to be a pacifist, someone unwilling to partake in violence due to his religious beliefs. There at the Battle of Okinawa, one of the bloodiest battles of WWII, Doss ended up saving the lives of many of his fellow soldiers resulting in him being the first conscientious objector in American history to be awarded the Medal of Honor.
