Critics Consensus Distractingly violent and historically dodgy, Mel Gibson's Braveheart justifies its epic length by delivering enough sweeping action, drama, and romance to match its ambition. 77% TOMATOMETER Total Count: 77 85% Audience Score User Ratings: 32, 708, 456 Braveheart Ratings & Reviews Explanation Braveheart Videos Photos Movie Info Mel Gibson, long-time heartthrob of the silver screen, came into his own as a director with Braveheart, an account of the life and times of medieval Scottish patriot William Wallace and, to a lesser degree, Robert the Bruce's struggle to unify his nation against its English oppressors. The story begins with young Wallace, whose father and brother have been killed fighting the English, being taken into the custody of his uncle, a nationalist and pre-Renaissance renaissance man. He returns twenty years later, a man educated both in the classics and in the art of war. There he finds his childhood sweetheart Murron (Catherine McCormack), and the two quickly fall in love. There are murmurs of revolt against the English throughout the village, but Wallace remains aloof, wishing simply to tend to his crops and live in peace. However, when his love is killed by English soldiers the day after their secret marriage (held secretly so as to prevent the local English lord from exercising the repulsive right of prima noctae, the privilege of sleeping with the bride on the first night of the marriage), he springs into action and single-handedly slays an entire platoon of foot soldiers. The other villagers join him in destroying the English garrison, and thus begins the revolt against the English in what will eventually become full-fledged war. Wallace eventually leads his fellow Scots in a series of bloody battles that prove a serious threat to English domination and, along the way, has a hushed affair with the Princess of Wales (the breathtaking Sophie Marceau) before his imminent demise. For his efforts, Gibson won the honor of Best Director from the Academy; the movie also took home statuettes for Best Picture, Cinematography, Makeup, and Sound Effects. ~ Jeremy Beday, Rovi Rating: R (for brutal medieval warfare) Genre: Directed By: Written By: In Theaters: May 26, 1995 wide On Disc/Streaming: Aug 29, 2000 Runtime: 177 minutes Studio: Paramount Pictures Cast News & Interviews for Braveheart Critic Reviews for Braveheart Audience Reviews for Braveheart Braveheart Quotes Movie & TV guides.

From its soulful score by James Horner, brilliant editing in the battle sequences, brisk pacing, and dazzling cinematography by John Toll, Braveheart is an epic in every sense of the word. The acting, the surprisingly brutal battle scenes, the speeches and monologues, etc, feels fresh and From its soulful score by James Horner, brilliant editing in the battle sequences, brisk pacing, and dazzling cinematography by John Toll, Braveheart is an epic in every sense of the word. The acting, the surprisingly brutal battle scenes, the speeches and monologues, etc, feels fresh and new to the genre even if they actually aren't. That's in large part due to Mel Gibson's remarkable and risk-taking direction, and the masterful editing. Long shots, wide camera angles, and quick cuts in the dialogue scenes as well as the battle sequences gave this movie a lively atmosphere, and therefore made it a unique experience that helped it to stand out from the other historical epic movies. That being said, I found the tonal shifts completely outputting. The movie kept moving from a somber to a lighter tone throughout its runtime to match the current situations and events. That made some important moments have less impact on me, such as; some dramatic moments didn't work as mush as it should, the climax of the plot felt sudden and not well prepared for it, etc. While it didn't take me a long time to adapt to the new tone, the episodic nature of the movie is quite annoying and distracting. The romantic relationship between Wallace and his wife was pretty fine and acceptable at first, but then it overstayed its welcome a little bit. Whilst the reason for that is quite understandable, I couldn't help but cringe for a while. The villain is very menacing and almost everything about him is great, except that he provided us with an exposition of his plans many times. But, fortunately, likewise some cheesy lines, these scenes were justified by Gibson's excellent direction that gave them an epic sense, and therefore made them more passable. Randall Wallace's screenplay is more than enough to make the movie match its ambition. From the way we witness our protagonist from his childhood to become the hero he is, to the miraculous narrative control on the abundance of side characters and their sub-plots. All that made Braveheart a larger-than-life historical tale, and I don't care about how historically accurate it is because it's a great movie! (8/10) … Expand.

Everybody hates England. I know it's just a movie. But I love how the father of the bride of William Wallace was still there after the death of Wallace, ready to fight. Une de mais plus belle musique de film qui me renvoi dans un passé très douloureux je pourrai écouter pendant des heures. This is how I feel when I get up in the morning then go sell at work 😂💴💴💴.

I'm a beginner piano's player, and i'm wondering how is it to play as well? Can't wait to judge for myself. It reminds me a phrase of the movie : Every man dies, not every man plays piano. That music is so beautiful. FREEDOM.

Pogumno. | Roger Ebert May 24, 1995 Mel Gibson's "Braveheart" is a full-throated, red-blooded battle epic about William Wallace, the legendary Scots warrior who led his nation into battle against the English in the years around 1300. It's an ambitious film, big on simple emotions like love, patriotism and treachery, and avoids the travelogue style of so many historical swashbucklers: Its locations look green, wet, vast, muddy and rugged. Not much is known about Wallace, known as Braveheart, except that according to an old epic poem, he unified the clans of Scotland and won famous battles against the English before being captured, tortured and executed as a traitor. Advertisement Wallace's dying cry, as his body was stretched on the rack, was "freedom! " That isn't exactly based on fact (the concept of personal freedom was a concept not much celebrated in 1300), but it doesn't stop Gibson from making it his dying cry. It fits in with the whole glorious sweep of "Braveheart, " which is an action epic with the spirit of the Hollywood swordplay classics and the grungy ferocity of "The Road Warrior. " What people are going to remember from the film are the battle scenes, which are frequent, bloody and violent. Just from a technical point of view, "Braveheart" does a brilliant job of massing men and horses for large-scale warfare on film. Gibson deploys what look like thousands of men on horseback, as well as foot soldiers, archers and dirty tricks specialists, and yet his battle sequences don't turn into confusing crowd scenes: We understand the strategy, and we enjoy the tactics even while we're doubting some of them (did 14th century Scots really set battlefields aflame? ). Gibson is not filming history here, but myth. William Wallace may have been a real person, but "Braveheart" owes more to Prince Valiant, Rob Roy and Mad Max. Once we understand that this is not a solemn historical reconstruction (and that happens pretty fast), we accept dialogue that might otherwise have an uncannily modern tone, as when Braveheart issues his victory ultimatum to the English: "Scotland's terms are that your commander present himself in front of our army, put his head between his legs and kiss his - - -. " Uh, huh. In the film, Wallace's chief antagonist is King Edward I ("Longshanks"), played by Patrick McGoohan with sly cunning; he is constantly giving his realpolitik interpretation of events, and that's all the more amusing since he's usually guessing wrong. Edward's son, the Prince of Wales (Peter Hanly), is an effete fop who marries a French woman only for political reasons. "I may have to conceive the child myself! " Longshanks says, and indeed, under the medieval concept of prima nocte, or "first night, " nobles were allowed a first chance to sleep with the wives of their lessers. The Princess, played by the French actress Sophie Marceau, does not much admire her husband, who spends most of his time hanging about moon-eyed with his best friend (until the king, in a fit of impatience, hurls the friend out the castle window). Edward, smarting from defeats, dispatches the Princess to offer his terms to Braveheart, but soon she's spilling all the state secrets, "because of the way you look at me. " The Princess is the second love in Wallace's life; the first, his childhood sweetheart Murron ( Catherine McCormack), marries him in secret (so the local English lord won't claim his rights). The two spend their wedding night outdoors, and the backlit shot as they embrace gains something, I think, from the frost on their breaths. These characters come from hardened stock. (When Wallace has a reunion with his childhood pal Hamish, they hurl rocks at each other for entertainment; later, when a Scotsman has his wound cauterized, all he says is, "That'll wake you up in the morning, boy! ") It is sometimes seen as an egotistical gesture when actors direct themselves, especially in heroic epics costing (so they say) $53 million. The truth is, given this material, I do not know that anyone could have directed it better. Gibson marshals his armies of extras, his stunt men and his special effects, and creates a fictional world that is entertaining, and thrilling. And as Braveheart, Gibson plays his role with flamboyance, and cuts it with sly humor. He is an amazing battlefield strategist, inventing new strategies and weapons, outsmarting the English at every turn, leading his men into battle with his face painted blue, like a football fan. There is a scene where he is so pumped up with the scent of battle that his nostrils flare; not many actors could get away with that, but Gibson can. Reveal Comments comments powered by.

The king of Scotland had died without a son, and the king of England, a cruel pagan known as Edward the Longshanks, claimed the throne of Scotland for himself.

Pogumno srce. Watch in high quality haha. The characters are real, with some name changes, and many of the battle events are accurate. But beyond that, this film is mostly fictitious. It may not be fair to judge it solely on its historical accuracy. That's because so little actual historical record exists from the 13th century about the hero, William Wallace. So, it's best to enjoy "Braveheart" as an epic film about a legendary and true hero in Scottish lore.
Doubtless, most people enjoy the film for the splendor of its production as well as the legend. The scenery of the Scottish Highlands (much of which was filmed in Ireland) the beauty of the country, the excellence of the costuming (some not very historical) and the staging of very real battle scenes – all make this an epic film. It is not among the greatest of epics – "Gone with the Wind" of 1939, The Ten Commandments" of 1956, War and Peace" of 1956, or "Ben-Hur" of 1959. But it clearly belongs with other superb epics such as "Doctor Zhivago" of 1965, Dances with Wolves" of 1990 and "The Gladiator" of 2000.
The plot of the film is about Scotland's fight for independence from England. William Wallace was a leading patriot in that fight who inspired the Scots to revolt against the foreign rule and oppressive practices of English-backed Scottish nobility. The film is a grand portrayal of that fight. One can leave the historical details aside and enjoy the portrayal of the Scots' fight for freedom that they finally obtained in 1306 under the leadership of King Robert the Bruce. The Scots would survive two wars of independence (1296-1328 and 1332-1357) and remain a free country.
Some of the Scottish nobles traded sides and loyalties, as shown in this film. But, most were loyal and fought with the common man to wage the wars for freedom that gained Scotland its independence from England.
As the screenwriter, Randall Wallace, says in a 2000 documentary on the making of the film, much of the story they used comes from legend. A particular source was 15th century epic poem by a Scottish minstrel called "Blind Harry." The poem is entitled, The Acts and Deeds of Sir William Wallace, Knight of Eidersile." But, besides that, the producers made "Hollywood" decisions to give the film more glamor and appeal. Some would be drastic revisions of history.
Some glaring diversions from here included the queen, Isabella of France, who became the wife of Edward II. She was born in 1295, so was only two years old when Wallace began his fight for freedom. She and Wallace never met in real life. She was 13-years old when she married Edward in 1308 – three years after Wallace's death. She was married to Edward 19 years, until his death in 1327, and she bore him five children, including his successor, Edward III.
Edward I, Longshanks, is reputed to have been one of the most ruthless rulers of England. He died two years after the death of Wallace. That was a year before his son married Isabella of France. So, all the parts of the film about her, Longshanks and Edward II are pure fiction. An Encyclopedia Britannica article reports that Edward II may have had relations with men as well as other women and his wife.
The Scots under Wallace did invade and conquer parts of northern England, but they did not get as far south as York as shown in the film. After the major defeat at Falkirk, which the movie shows, Wallace disappeared for four years on the continent. He returned to Scotland and resumed his fighting when he was captured.
Wallace's execution is one thing that the movie shows accurately – but much less graphically than it actually was. We don't know what was said, of course, but the manner and method of his execution is accurate with recorded details. Perhaps we should have seen more of it to realize the gore and horror of English punishment in that time. After his trial on August 23, 1305, he was stripped naked and dragged through the city by a horse. He then was hung, then disemboweled, then beheaded, and finally drawn and quartered. His head was mounted on London Bridge for a time and his limbs were sent to the four corners of Britain for display and deterrence against revolt. Still, history records that the Scots has the last word with the ensuring victories that established their independence.
Of course, all this was more than seven centuries ago. And, in the time since, England has been blessed to have the Scots as part of the U.K. especially fighting on its side in the many wars that followed. By the 19th century, the sound of bagpipes accompanying the march of troops was a proud symbol for both Englishmen and Scotsmen.

Pogumno scenario. Pogumno screen. In Longshanks we trust. Pogumno scream. The music makes me feel free and such beautiful composition listen heart is free have the courage to follow it. So beautiful and so sad. . Una de las mejores películas q he visto. ❤️❤️❤️y una por las q lloro cada ves que la veo😭😭😭😇😇. The Celts. Nuff said.

Pogumno scenes. Pogumno screenshot. Probably one of the best movies of all time. Directed and starred in by Mel Gibson, it is a loose biography of William Wallace, the man responsible for scotland uniting and gaining it's independance from england. Trademarks of the movie are William Wallace's half blue/half white face painting at the battle of stirling, and his yell of "FREEEEEEEDDDDDDDOOOOOOOOOMMMMMM" after being tortured nearly to death. although there are more than a few historical inacuracies it is an amazing movie that everyone should see. "Will you stand and fight?! " "no! we will run. and we will live" "ay. fight, and you may die. run, and you'll live. at least for a while. and then, dying in your beds, many years from now, would you be willing to trade all the days, from this day to that, for one chance, just one chance, to tell our enemies that they may take our lives, but they'll never take our freedom! " -best scene from Braveheart masculine guys (straight or gay) who wear kilts or other MUGS (Male Unbifurcated GarmentS) After porking a girl while she's on her peroid, you reach down with your hand and get a generous mittenfull of the aftermath and run your hand down one side of your face. Followed with a loud battlecry. After giving Suzy the Braveheart, I yelled "YOU MAY TAKE MY SIEMEN BUT YOU'LL NEVER TAKE MY FREEDOM!!!! " A loosely biographical motion picture released in 1995 my Mel Gibson which chronicles the life of William Wallace, a Scottish Patriot who lived from 1272-1305, who shares with Robert the Bruce the honor of being the Scottish National Hero. The film has been criticized for its historical inaccuracies, but taken as entertainment, it is an excellent piece of cinema. when you are banging a chick in a porti potty and right before you nut you dunk her face in the blue stuff and pull her out. when she comes out her face is blue and you yell "FREEDOM!!! " while blowing your load on her back. The most amazing!!! Wonderfull!! Scottish film of all tym!! Men in kilts! Scotland! A heap o' gingers and a massive rammy!! Makes me proud 2b a scot!

It's been almost 10 minutes, and I'm feeling a little drowsy. Fingers crossed. Good night, whoever's reading this 😔. Pogumno srce. RIP James Horner i will never forget what a great artist he was,he build the sound for my favriot films. Battle of Stirling. what.
