Great Entertainment, a pure adrenaline rush of a film!!!!!

Rating: Null/10 (19 January 2002)

Frankly I have been disgusted with the majority of the comments about this movie. I am an Australian and I thought this movie was great, not just because it starred two Australians, not that you can really call Mel Gibson an Australian, but because it taught me what hardships the Continental Army went through to beat the redcoats, wo at the time were the best infantry on the planet.
People have complained about i's historical accuracy, and no-one said the film was even meant to be historically accurate. Actually, the battles at Camden, which Gibson and Ledger watch from a house, Cowpens, the battle where Tavington was killed and the movie-ending Siege of Yorktown were all real battles and really did take place.
This was a great movie, and it should be praised for being the epic that it was!!!!!!
