Brave Heart

“Brave Heart” is a Mel Gibson’s movie, which basically tells how William Wallace, a valorous Scottish warrior carried his homeland to fight against the English back to the fourteenth century.  It conveys the idea of patriotism, love and freedom to the audience smoothly.

This war movie features some of the most eye-catching combat in years, and the massive use of the violence is part of the thrill.  Mel Gibson turns war into brutal epic spectacle. 

Surprisingly, the portrayal of William Wallace is successful, who comes off as such an awesome invincible hero.  Also, the film is highly effective at making the English seem so overwhelmingly evil that I was about to rush and tear up the screen. Patrick McGoohan, who plays King Edward, did a fantastic job in making the character so real and wicked.

“Brave Heart” shows us that it is not your family background or birthright that makes who are, but the way you live your life.  Even though the use of ferocity might be inappropriate for some audiences, it does not affect the fact that it is an excellent movie.
