Excellent film, one of the best!

Rating: 10/10 (3 July 2000)

This was an amazing experience. Mel Gibson has a way of sucking you into his roles. He is very good at portraying grief. This is a film that holds nothing back. As soon as you start to like the characters they get killed. It shows the harsh reality of the Revolutionary war. The goodguys don't always win. If you don't like this one you must be as cold as the colonial in this film. I am not sure as to how accurate it is but it definitely captures the American spirit.
