america, like this movie, rocks!!!!

Rating: Null/10 (30 November 2000)

the patriot puts the braveheart in civil war america. following his failsafe formula, mel gibson breaks through with another fantastic cinemascape of historical drama. some have lambasted this film for its alleged historical inaccuracies. these people are communists who don't know how to have a good time. they miss the historical **message** the film portrays. this message is that America is truly the greatest land of all, a land with peace and justice for all. others say that this film is nothing but a recycled version of braveheart. these are the same people who said lethal weapon 4 was one sequel too many. THERE CAN NEVER BE TOO MUCH MEL. so, if you want a turbo charged thrill ride of a face slapping gorilla of a movie, rent the patriot and hang on to your butts. just make sure your vcr can take it. (though of course dvd is the ideal format in which to see this film)
