mel gibson, the perfect hero

Rating: 10/10 (8 August 2000)

Patriot may be not as good as Braveheart but Mel Gibson portraying another heroic role created a momentous impact on the story, the whole movie making Mel Gibson the perfect hero ever. His acting and presence made Patriot such a compelling re-enactment of wars fought in the past or present time. Just like Braveheart, nationalism is re-awakened, patriotism is re-envigorated.
