Sorry, this movie sucks
Perfect cast and a good story
Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.
The joyful confection is coated in a sparkly gloss, bright enough to gleam from the darkest, most cynical corners.
And dying in your beds, many years from now, would you be willin' to trade ALL the days, from this day to that, for one chance, just one chance, to come back here and tell our enemies that they may take our lives, but they'll never take... OUR FREEDOM! Conclusion: Dying in a fight for Freedom, you die as a free man.
Such a great story, so many quotable lines, and my favorite antagonist in all cinema in Longshanks. It is a long movie but definitely worth a watch.
I don't know what it was when I first watched Braveheart year ago; I thought that Mel Gibson might have been a little to xenophobic in his treatment of the English in the film initially, I thought that he made the villains too black and white, the goodies too morally perfect, but still he knows how to tell a good story nonetheless. And who doesn't love Scotland anyway?I love Mel Gibson as a director and this film is no exception of his skills, but it took more time for this one to sit right with me. Having re-evaluated the film since watching it initially, I deeply enjoy it. It's not pitch-perfect but it's good historical drama and filled with great action from Mad Max himself.If you're a film-goer who somehow hasn't seen this film yet, go ahead. May not be everyone's cup of tea, but it's still worth it. Any 'big-bang' of a movie really is right? And hey, everyone's got their own little bit of specific feedback on any given movie.
A tale well-told is the story of William Wallace that for Scotland became bigger than life and this is as it should be. Mel Gibson does the story justice as does a strong supporting cast and the rest is up to the viewer to enjoy as they please. Many must see scenes and nice visuals all help it reach the viewer and satisfy the entertainment gene within. Make sure you have a sandwich, snack and a drink on this long movie with no cell phone interruptions for maximum effect. There is a scene where they take bread and dunk it in a soup stew if you want to g that way too. Enjoy and you will become a....
