Rating: 10/10 (7 May 2002)

This movie encompasses how we all feel when things in our lives do not go right and we want to avenge them. In the hearts of us all is a true spirit of wanting to gain Freedom from any sort of tyranny. William Wallace's life warranted that he become that person to lead the revolt against the evil in history through his wisdom gained from his
Uncle Argyle, the devastation of losing his father at an early age, finding his own true love, and from losing her as well. It made him fight and that is what they all wanted. War is never pretty. But it is necessary to gain victory and the rights of others to be Free. In watching this love story, and fighting for justice, honor and freedom for the Scots to wear their tartans and to overcome the injustices forced on them by this unfair government, one realizes how powerful men with rave hearts can be when they go to raise a standard up against the army of decaying monarchs. I was riveted to my seat. I loved the part where he and his true love became one, I cried with tears of how beautiful it was, so romantic. I cried as I saw her taken from her in a most unfair and cruel way. And I rallied with him as he defeated them in battles and took restitution for the evil deeds they did to the Scots. I was appalled to see how even their own noblemen turned towards the enemy at the beginning of the fights. I saw the real men fight and win against what looked like unbeatable odds. Braveheart is an epic movie with a message. Beware the men that fight for truth, righteousness and freedom, for in them lies the true Brave Hearts. Highly recommended for the whole family.
