an awesome biopic drama

Rating: 9/10 (18 August 2014)

Braveheart is an academy award winning historical war-drama movie. This movie tells the story of Scottish war of independence which revolves around the character William Wallace (played by Mel Gibson). It is a film adaptation of the famous Blind Harry's epic poem "The Actes and Deidis of the Illustre and Vallyeant Champion Schir William Wallace". This movie illustrates, very dramatically, how a common villager turned into a ferocious rebel after losing his beloved ones and ignited a whole state to rebel against tyranny.
Besides the powerful performance and direction of Mel, the movie has got a lot of romance, action, comedy and emotions to offer.This movie has the greatest screenplay ever written by Randall Wallace . The unparalleled blend of sceneries of the Scottish highland and local music makes this movie an epic art work. James Horner again proves his worth. The cinematography and editing were simply marvelous.
If we consider the cons, I would say the movie should be a little less dramatic and more realistic. In a nutshell, if you love watching historical biopic or drama, I would suggest you not to miss this movie.
