Sensation

Rating: 9/10 (17 April 2020)

Wallace is an American hero, with a very American ideology and way of doing things. Historically, he was, I believe, hardly a British rebel on a cultural level -- Robin Hood was.
The background of the story is nothing more than a stage for the director to express his inner stage. We love this movie because we love the pure heroes: the forthright, the brave, the quick-witted, the righteous, the daring to hate and love. Throughout the film, at least the treatment at the end of the film is in line with Wallace's character. "If you fight for freedom, you are a free man," is one of the grandest phrases in the movie, and most of the time it's more inspirational than melodramatic.
This is the pinnacle of a hollywood-style hero film that includes almost all the elements of the genre: war, heroism, love, betrayal, hehe. What is valuable is that the film is full of emotion from the beginning to the end.
We can applaud our favorite hero without demanding which country he is more like.
