…. I got nothin better to do ….
Stephen: [to William, while under fire from English archers at Stirling] The Lord tells me he can get *me* out of this mess, but He’s pretty sure you’re fucked.
Driven by revenge and freedom William Wallace leads his army in a bloody campaign against the English tyranny in a bid to unite and free his county. Though the movie is violent a lot of the plot deals with the politics of the time and importantly the love between Wallace and his wife, those scenes show a warm side to contrast the violence, he is not a blood thirsty savage he is a husband and a man driven to far, ultimetly its a love story.
Along with Directing and producing Mel Gibson stared in the leading role . Personally I think its one of his greatest achievements, when I watch it I don’t see a bunch of actors running around play fighting I see love, I see battles and I see a time long forgotten.
I know that Mel ain’t exactly loved these days but if you can look past that stuff and your part of the 11 people that hasn’t already seen Braveheart, I suggest you do. Its definitely a movie you need to see before you die.

Hands down one of my favorite movies. (it didn’t make my blog list because I’m not ashamed of it)
It was a must see in all it’s theater glory. I imagine watching it in HD would be great too.
