View All Critic Reviews Sep 18, One of if not the best Mel Gibson film starred and directed, In this near 3 hour film we expect some down time but in the first 30 minutes we have no real plot just a love story, But when it ends in tragedy finally the film starts, With some great very realistic battle scenes and for a while it's just battle scenes, Then betrayal happens and we have down time but we are so sucked into the story by then it's gripping and emotional, Mel Gibson was fantastic with his acting and directing, He made the filthy gritty 13th century come alive, My only downfall is it's too long and bum numbing but it's a classic and a must watch before you die.
Jamie C Super Reviewer. Sep 17, An engaging and romantic historical fantasy epic -- one that has a tie to the personal and feels sincere. Kyle M Super Reviewer. Dec 29, The story follows a Scottish peasant named William Wallace who's pushed into leading a rebellion against the tyranny of English rule when his wife is murdered. Additionally, the battle sequences are remarkably gritty and violent, which adds to the authentic tone of the film. And, composer James Horner provides a sweeping and majestic score that's incredibly powerful.
A groundbreaking film, Braveheart does an exceptional job at depicting both the valor and the horror of war. Dann M Super Reviewer. Sep 04, I could still remember on how reposeful I am while watching this movie.
It's music sips through my ear, enters me, moved me, and almost tear me up. An undeniably immense picture, it is one of few epics that could possibly move millions. The film grabbed five academy awards including best picture. In my personal opinion, the most memorable element of 'Braveheart' is it's music, which was being composed by the talented James Horner. I have to admit that I am slightly puzzled with it; at times it feels like a genuine Scottish music, but also at the same time it feels like a plain modern music, but either way it is beautiful.
I am going to put aside any sense of familiarity here, but whenever the music is being played, my love for this film grows. Also, I honestly believe that if this charming music is absent, the picture would not be so memorable. Acting performances are good, but not outstanding. Patrick McGoohan's work for this film did hold my attention. He played the main villain of the story named King Edward "Longshanks". Surely, what excites me was his approach for the character; a cool, quiet, and methodically behaved, and at the same time, a cold and violent human being.
He might be labelled as coward or a hypocrite, but assuredly, this "Longshanks" character is a pretty good villain. Accept Cookies Customize Cookies. William Wallace, a commoner, unites the 13th Century Scots in their battle to overthrow English rule.
