Braveheart

Rating: 9/10 (28 September 2010)

An Epic Epic movie !
I've always thought I had to watch this movie. Tonight, I finally did ! The story of Willam Wallace told by Mel Gibson is fabulous ! The movie is 3 hours long, but is it really that long ? It is so great, you don't look once at your watch, except at the end, of course. But you say "What ? Already finished ? It has only been 3 hours !". 30 more minutes would be so appreciated !
Concerning the movie itself, I think Mel Gibson, as an actor and director was perfect! I am no professional, but I can distinguish good and bad filming. Braveheart definitely enters the 'Wow category'. And the acting, not only Mel Gibson's one, but all the cast's one, is so real and brilliant. Now the music, well it's James Horner. This composer has memorable scores (Titanic for instance), but I'm convinced it's repetitive, yet the repetitive samples are good job.
To conclude, movie everyone has to see. You'll surely like it, nay love it ! However, the music tells me not to give 10 stars. But I'd put 9.5 if I could ! And one last word: FFFRRREEEEEEDDDOOOMMM !!!
