"The Patriot - Redux" - 200 years later.

Rating: 3/10 (7 August 2002)

What a cheesey 2 hours of schlock ! And starring the guy who left America to hide out in Australlia to avoid the draft ! Poorly done, a bad rehash of many better movies that have gone before. A complete waste of Madaline Stowe's talents. Couldnt even film in the Phillipeans so as to look somewhat real. They just settled for a valley at Thousand Oakes (I guess so they could be in their Hollywood beds each night.) Even that terrible "Green Berets" was better. Even "Good morning, Vietnam was better. Staring at a wall for 2 hours may be better.
I cannot understand how the IMDB rating is higher than a "3", except I overheard old women at work going to see it a second time to see that "Hunky Mel Gibson". avoid.
