Rating: 10/10 (18 December 1999)

This movie will probably be remembered, rightfully, as a classic! While the excellent battle scenes do a great job of conveying both the terror and the heroics of medieval warfare, the real power of this movie is in the heroic rise and tragic fall of William Wallace.
We see the reasons for Wallace's fight, the bravery and dedication he shows in carrying in out and how his courage and love of country ultimately become the hubris that destroys him. In the end, however, his dream is fulfilled, though he does not live to see it.
This movie is very moving and, though long, never boring. Truly a must see!
