Review of Braveheart (1995) by Realjaytheboom — 08 Mar 2022

Braveheart: Well that was unexpected. Mel Gibson has a way with film making because I’ve only seen 2 of his movies and somehow they make you not like the films when you watch them but when you finish you end up really enjoying it.

Mel Gibson brings his all in the lead with the Scottish accent to go along with it he did a great job. So did the rest of the cast and just like the Rambo movies they really make you hate the bad guys and of course there from England but they do it in the best way some people you may think are good but then flip it on your head and betray their people.

The cinematography of the movie is great the Scotland lands have never looked so good its so well lit and very beautiful to look at. But the main thing I love so much is the music. All the music in this movie even though they over use some of the same songs it doesn’t matter at all the bagpipes sounds so good that I now want to go to Scotland, go to a music festival there and hear the music I adore it.

But there are some bad things like the main motive is cliche fall in love, get married, girl dies, go fight but the real story is great Scotland fighting for there freedom. Then even though this came out before Passion of the Christ if you watched that movie first then you can see the same stuff he did like having the main character’s family watching him get tortured and then someone from his past walks past the family so maybe you can say that was a Braveheart shot but since I saw Passion first I called it a Passion shot.

Overall yeah it was really good action was solid, blood was good, story nice but sometimes generic watching it during these times. Next review is Parasite though let’s see if it deserves its 5 Oscars.
