bump

I would like to know as well. I'm going to see it with my old man in a few days.

>>31899979

Bump for interest. Hopefully based Mel doesn't disappoint.

>>31900199
>Based Mel
Just because he named the jew doesn't mean his movies don't blow.

>>31900211
His movies are all great though

>>31900211

Back to /tv/ you contrarian retard. Apocalypto was amazing. Blood Father/Get the Gringo wasn't bad either.

>>31900211
Don't pick on mel

It's a good movie and different from other war movies, nothing about the movie is liberal.

>>31900238
Tell me more about how Braveheart and The Patriot were excellent historical films.

>>31900351

Autism harder faggot. No one cares.

>>31900351
Braveheart is an excellent film by every cinematic standard. The Patriot is B-movie tier, but the historical accuracy of either movie doesn't have any impact on the quality. Only fags care about historical accuracy,

That's the Most American as fuck movie ever. Faggot.

The trailers make it look hokey, but this is the most brutal big budget war movie in a while
some parts make Saving Private Ryan's Omaha Beach scene look tame

It's kind of meh.

They only cover like half of what he actually did according to the MoH citation, and most of it's crammed into the last half-hour of the movie, while the rest is just more of those fucking "mass charges into gunfire" that Gibson loves to film so much.

name a better battle scene in a movie

>>31899979
I went and saw it last night. It was really good actually, no liberal bullshit; it explains why he's a terminal noguns pretty well. Probably one of the most intense war movies ive seen, personally i put it up there with We Were Soldiers.

>>31900468

I noticed that too! I read homeboy's MoH citation and the movie didn't really even cover some of the better parts of it.

Impressive nonetheless. Just go see it /k/.

Starring Andrew Garfield. Dropped.

>>31900734
What's he's getting at is don't let historical inaccuracies kill an otherwise good movie for you. Hollywood's gonna Hollywood, don't let that get in the way of you enjoying a movie.

There is only one battle scene that ever has or ever will top SPR's opening....

...and they share the same movie

>>31900409
Ive loved Braveheart but it couldve been so much better if it was at least a bit more historically accurate imagine they made the battle of Stirling bridge actually take place at a bridge instead of two armies just running into each other.

>>31900409
Yeah but why does he make these movies in historical periods and then do literally nothing to make them authentic? Youtube meme reviews aside, it's insulting to even high schoolers who took a world history class.

>>31899979
Just saw it, very, very good movie,

I was a bit skeptical dude to Hollywood's ability to make it political but I'm glad it wasn't.

Some really great gun porn throughout the film.

>>31899979
Fantastic movie. It's honestly going to go down as one of my favourites.

It has the best combat scenes of any war film I've ever seen.

Just got back from it, it isn't anti-war or anti-gun. Just a story of a man who wanted to serve his country and stand by his convictions.

Make sure you read Doss' MoH citation, because the movie doesn't show half of it.

>>31905099
>MoH Citation

>The President of the United States of America, in the name of Congress, takes pleasure in presenting the Medal of Honor to Private First Class Desmond Thomas Doss, United States Army, for conspicuous gallantry and intrepidity in action above and beyond the call of duty from April 29 – 21 May 1945,

>while serving with the Medical Detachment, 307th Infantry Regiment, 77th Infantry Division, in action at Urasoe Mura, Okinawa, Ryukyu Islands. Private First Class Doss was a company aid man when the 1st Battalion assaulted a jagged escarpment 400 feet high.

>As our troops gained the summit, a heavy concentration of artillery, mortar and machine gun fire crashed into them, inflicting approximately 75 casualties and driving the others back. Pfc. Doss refused to seek cover and remained in the fire-swept area with the many stricken, carrying all 75 casualties one-by-one to the edge of the escarpment and there lowering them on a rope-supported litter down the face of a cliff to friendly hands.

>On May 2, he exposed himself to heavy rifle and mortar fire in rescuing a wounded man 200 yards forward of the lines on the same escarpment; and 2 days later he treated 4 men who had been cut down while assaulting a strongly defended cave, advancing through a shower of grenades to within eight yards of enemy forces in a cave's mouth, where he dressed his comrades' wounds before making 4 separate trips under fire to evacuate them to safety.

>On May 5, he unhesitatingly braved enemy shelling and small arms fire to assist an artillery officer. He applied bandages, moved his patient to a spot that offered protection from small arms fire and, while artillery and mortar shells fell close by, painstakingly administered plasma.

>>31905219
>Later that day, when an American was severely wounded by fire from a cave, Pfc. Doss crawled to him where he had fallen 25 feet from the enemy position, rendered aid, and carried him 100 yards to safety while continually exposed to enemy fire.

>On May 21, in a night attack on high ground near Shuri, he remained in exposed territory while the rest of his company took cover, fearlessly risking the chance that he would be mistaken for an infiltrating Japanese and giving aid to the injured until he was himself seriously wounded in the legs by the explosion of a grenade. Rather than call another aid man from cover, he cared for his own injuries and waited 5 hours before litter bearers reached him and started carrying him to cover.
>The trio was caught in an enemy tank attack and Pfc. Doss, seeing a more critically wounded man nearby, crawled off the litter; and directed the bearers to give their first attention to the other man.
>Awaiting the litter bearers' return, he was again struck, by a sniper bullet while being carried off the field by a comrade, this time suffering a compound fracture of one arm.
>With magnificent fortitude he bound a rifle stock to his shattered arm as a splint and then crawled 300 yards over rough terrain to the aid station.

>Through his outstanding bravery and unflinching determination in the face of desperately dangerous conditions Pfc. Doss saved the lives of many soldiers. His name became a symbol throughout the 77th Infantry Division for outstanding gallantry far above and beyond the call of duty.

>>31903368
Name a movie you did like faggot.

Did the real Desmond Doss get shot by a Japanese sniper?
Yes. Director Mel Gibson decided to leave this out of the movie because he felt audiences would find the heroic circumstances under which it happened too hard to believe, especially after Desmond had just taken the blunt of a grenade blast to save his fellow soldiers. After the grenade left him with 17 pieces of shrapnel stuck in him, Desmond waited for five hours until fellow soldier Ralph Baker was able to reach him. Baker, along with a few other men, carried Desmond on a litter (stretcher) through an intense enemy tank attack. As they were carrying him, he saw a guy get shot in the head. Desmond rolled off the stretcher and crawled over to patch the man up. Desmond gave up his stretcher to the man, but while waiting for help to come back, he was wounded again, this time by a sniper's bullet that shattered his left arm. He fashioned a splint out of a rifle stalk and crawled the remaining 300 yards under fire, eventually reaching the safety of an aid station. He was transported to the hospital ship Mercy. -The Conscientious Objector Documentary

>Some of the shit that happened would be too unbelievable so we left it out.

Rush Limbaugh loved it, for what that's worth. He has good taste in movies.

Fucking mel

>>31904235
Is it worth a trip to theater if you don't normally go? The last movie I went to see was the latest Star Wars abortion.

I should probably wait for DVD shouldn't I?

>>31907593
>rifle stalk

>>31908714
No it's worth the Theater trip 100% for the battle scenes, I would absolutely see it again.

Like in the movie Valkyre.

When the real Claus von Stauffenberg got blown up and was recovering from his wounds, he refused all forms of painkillers even after losing an arm, an eye and 3 fingers. Bryan Singer had to forego this because the audience would believe it was just Tom Cruise being Tom Cruise.

>>31900409
Only fags care if their war movies are anti-war and librul.

You're telling me, with all the ridiculous nonsense they cram into most movies, we couldn't deal with some real life for once?
