This movie is awful.

Rating: 1/10 (11 July 2000)

I've never been so offended by a movie in my entire life. I don't know what was worse: the attempts to rewrite history for mainstream America; the glaring anachronisms; the evil characters who were given absolutely no motivation; the excessive abuse of slow motion; the completely unbelievable battle scenes; or the general preachiness.
This movie's central messages were apparently: 1. British people are evil; and 2. Without Mel Gibson, we would have lost the Revolutionary War.
After I finished this movie, I had to stifle an impulse to move to Canada and try to revoke my American citizenship.
Yuck.
