''It's all for nothing if you don't have freedom.'' William Wallace, a commoner, unites the 13th Century Scots in their battle to overthrow English rule. Mel Gibson: William Wallace Braveheart is a story blessed with many endearing nobilities and notions, but more than anything a dual sense of honour and liberty: on the one side William Wallace, a legendary figure who accomplished the impossible by leading the Scots when no one else would; and on the other hand Mel Gibson, who demonstrated with this movie a directorial talent that many of us doubted.

There's nothing better than a film about true and proper WARRIORS. Even if the facts are a bit mixed up and the whole thing reeks of historical inaccuracy, this is a thoroughly entertaining film...and I'm English! I have no doubt that the English were arseholes back in the day, domineering conquerors aren't always the nicest of chaps, so it's lucky Wallace was there to put us in our place.

Epic battle scenes, a great soundtrack and many a tear-jerking moment. Of course, the ending of the film sends two or three shivers down my spine. Not a happy film by any stretch of the imagination, but one that everyone should see.
