Greatest film ever!

Rating: 10/10 (7 October 1998)

As all the other comments here have pretty much said how I feel I will instead just draw attention to what I consider to be the best sequence of the film: when Wallace rides into town in slo-mo to avenge his wife. This is without doubt one of the finest examples of mounting tension ever, combining perfect use of heightened sound, slo-mo, rising music and great acting: Gibson looks absolutely without emotion as he stares at the first soldier and then kills him. From there the film doesn't let up. Yep, I love it! For once the Academy were right......
