A Brilliant War Epic!

Rating: 10/10 (5 May 2003)

Unless you are sensitive to too much brutal and bloody violence you've got to see this movie. Mel Gibson does a good job as Col. Benjamin Martin, a malicia leader. Heath Ledger does even better as Martin's son Gabriel. Chris Cooper
gives a very good performance as Col. Harry Burwell, an old friend of Martin's. And on the English side Tom Wilkinson plays the real life General Lord
Cornwalis, Jason Isaacs gives one of the best wicked, evil performances I've
seen as Col. William Tavington, who kills two of Martin's sons and is his enemy to the end. I couldn't compare it to the event on which it is based because I only study American history at school because I have to and I don't know too much
about it. But whether it is true to it or not, you will probably enjoy it!
