Rating: 10/10 (24 August 2015)

Mel Gibson's "Braveheart" is a full-throated, red-blooded battle epic.It's an ambitious film, big on simple emotions like love, patriotism and treachery.What people are going to remember from the film are the battle scenes, which are frequent, bloody and violent. Just from a technical point of view, "Braveheart" does a brilliant job of massing men and horses for large-scale warfare on film. I want to praise Mel Gibson for the work he put into making this movie. His vision as director was first-class and gave the movie a 'grandness' that it deserved. It is also a great achievement for Gibson to star in the movie, playing the integral character of Wallace, a difficult role. For his direction of Braveheart, Mel won the 1995 academy award for best director. I love all the battle scenes in 'Braveheart', as they are filmed in a big and bold way by Gibson. Death of Braveheart's wife adds emotional touch to the film. Overall the film contains romance,action,drama, adventure and deserves 5 star rating.
