Excellent historical reconstruction, 'cinematic' as I like it.

Rating: 10/10 (18 August 2000)

Emotion and empathy for a story that's not so indulgent toward the 'ideal hero', describe my feeling after I saw yesterday,in a sold out multiplex hosting the Italian premiere,"The Patriot" .
I liked the accuracy of the historical battle reconstruction and the portrait of a normal hero doing immoral things in order to survive....
I saw war as bad as it deserve to be described and fatherly emotion acted properly by Mel Gibson.
