The Best War Movie Ever

Rating: 10/10 (20 November 2006)

When I first watched his film, all I could say was, "Wow! This movie is so cool!" The film is such a great way of showing the history of Scotland. Mel Gibson stars and directs this fine film. His portrayal of William Wallace is really awesome and his acting really moves the viewers. I love the part in the Battle of the Stirling, where his face is painted blue with his shield and up. I have to admit, there is some funny parts in the movie that could make people go nuts. The mooning part (it is only a brief scene of nudity), makes people go crazy, laughing and crying. The scenes of the Battle of the Stirling and the Battle of Falkirk, were amazing and the cinematography is absolutely amazing. The scenes are brutal and barbaric, but the violence supports the story-the want of freedom from the evil rules of the King. Edward the Longshanks is an evil king who is a seriously corrupted person in the movie, but the acting is really great. I'd have to say that the movie is a fantastic achievement and people should watch it, (people who can stand brutal war scenes) because this movie is 100% AWESOME!
