True story

Rating: 10/10 (2 June 2001)

There are a lot of people bashing this film because of historical inaccuracies. Let me help you with what is real. There was an individual named William Wallace. He won a battle at Sterling. He lost a major battle at Falkirk. He was captured, taken to London, drawn, quartered, with his body parts put out on the four corners of the British Empire. Everything, and I mean pretty much everything else is not true. Oh yes, I forgot, William Wallace was a patriot. He did love Scotland very much. But everything else is all wrong.
Except Longshanks. Edward Plantagenet was a monster. He was ruthless and he was evil. He was scum and there is very little good about him. I don't care what the English that take such offense to this movie say or think. It's so great that they got their butts kicked in Bannockburn. That part of the movie was also true.
