Mel's best movie

Rating: 10/10 (8 March 2001)

What words can I say about this awesome film that haven't already been said? This is truly film magic. Mel Gibson plays the best role he has ever played. He also directed and produced this epic.
YES, the movie is not very historically accurate. But, aren't most movies of this type inaccurate? Plus, we know so little about William Wallace that it is hard to be accurate. At least the American public knows about him.
Now a comment about the other actors. I REALLY liked the two female roles. I thought Catherine McCormack as Murron was ideal. She had a very Celtic feel about her, and she is VERY good looking too. I also liked Sophie Marceau as Princess Isabella. Sophie is GORGEOUS. My favorite male actors (besides Mel) HAD to be David O'Hara as Stephen and Brendan Gleeson as Hamish. But, overall, everybody did a great job.
