Scottish History Splendidly Unfolded !

Rating: 9/10 (9 July 2007)

Mel Gibson is not only an accomplished actor but this movie has established him as an excellent director, as well. His acting in the film is poignant, forceful and above all realistically directed to portray the noble and fearless historical Scottish character of William Wallace.
Mel Gibson has befittingly and passionately portrayed the towering figure of Wallace in its living originality and has rendered emotional charisma to the protagonist that was get set to take on revenge from the English royalty against gory murder of his wife as well of the revival of moral values and freedom from servitude that were quite absent during those times.
It is an important chapter of Scottish history which ushered the nationalistic struggle against British rule. The ending is dramatically captivating although sadistic. Wallace has been depicted to leave his genetic code in the progeny of English monarchy by way of courting with the English princess.
