One of the greatest movies of all time.

Rating: 10/10 (16 August 2018)

There are only two movies on my "GOAT" list that I would rank above Braveheart, and know that I'm incredibly hard to please, so make of that what you will.
It's above and beyond the most epic story ever told, and Mel Gibson deserves every bit of credit for this absolute masterpiece. From his directing & flawless portrayal of William Wallace, there's very little one could find to criticize. Braveheart is obviously not entirely accurate historically, but honestly who cares? A lof of the stuff is exaggerated, and some of it simply didn't happen, but again, it's a movie. And in that it is as close to perfection as possible.
I would also like to point out that I have only just watched this movie for the very first time ever!! It's crazy, I know, especially considering the fact that the movie came out one year after my birth. I've had plenty of time, but never got around to watching it until now. And even in 2018, this movie is bloody brilliant. It was so ahead of its time that it crushes even today's high standards and blows 99% of today's movies out of the water by a massive margin.
Everything about this movie was done right, and it's so rare for me to say that.
Absolute masterpiece - 10/10.
