An awe inspiring, breath taking, jaw dropping, epic masterpiece

Rating: 10/10 (22 November 2001)

Mel Gibson's direction made this movie the masterpiece that it is. This film depicts the true story of William Wallace, (though historical facts are embellished somewhat), a Scotsman, fueled by love, revenge, and patriotism, who led a rebellion for Scottish independence from England, king of which was the cruel Edward "The Longshanks." Braveheart is undoubtably the greatest movie ever made. The acting, not only Gibson but every single character, is superb. If you do not own this on DVD, you are missing out. The Directors commentary is excellent. What more can I say? This motion picture is pure greatness. Perfection.
