Amazing, emotional film

Rating: Null/10 (28 April 2001)

Braveheart is the best movie ever created. In fact, it is more than a movie. It is an amazing portrayal of Scotland's hero, William Wallace. I first saw Braveheart when it came out in theatres in 1995, when I was thirteen years old. From that time to this day, I have watched it countless times. Maybe it is the heart-pounding medieval war scenes. Maybe it was the emotional bond between Wallace and the love of his life, Murron. Maybe it was the strong sense of revenge that was felt throughout the entire three hours, or the sensational views of Scotland and recreations of some of history's forgotten battles, or the display of ancient lifestyles, or Gibson's outstanding directing, or a combination of all these factors. It's funny to think that in 1995, Braveheart and Babe were in the same category for Best Picture.
