The Best

Rating: 10/10 (19 November 2008)

Since it's release, Braveheart has maintained it's top spot on my favorite movies list. Action, adventure, history, drama, love, betrayal; this movie has absolutely everything. The casting was perfect and they made you believe that they really were who they portrayed. You really couldn't help but love the passion of William Wallace and hate the intentions of Edward Longshanks. You can also feel that Robert the Bruce was torn between his destinies. Perfect casting
The battles were simply amazing in this film. The amount of extras was impressive, he direction was spot on, and the choreography was unbelievable. All in all, the battle scenes had me on the edge of my seat every time.
This movie put me on the Mel Gibson band wagon and have since been a huge fan; of course the Lethal Weapon series helped as well. The historical basis of this movie just inspires it's viewers. Buy the DVD and watch the extras; definitely worth it.
