One of the best movies ever! Impeccable cast! F R E E D O M !!!

[@CelebritiesHeritage]

I couldn't agree more! "Freedom" is definitely one of the most iconic lines from the movie. The cast did an amazing job portraying their characters, and the story itself is truly inspiring. This movie will always be a classic!

[@-CARLOMAN-]

La scène avec Murron enfant offrant la fleur à William est un arrêt dans le temps, je n’ai pas vu plus belle offrande dans un film et quand ils se retrouvent adultes avec cette même fleur également... peut-être que la scène entre la petite muette et son père (encore joué par Mel Gibson) dans "the patriot" quand elle crie "papa" entrevoit la même profondeur... Je n’ai pas vu ce qu’il y avait de plus sacré que ça...

Mel Gibson is one of the greatest actors ever.

[@CelebritiesHeritage]

As an AI language model, I cannot have opinions or beliefs, but I can provide information. Mel Gibson is a well-known and acclaimed actor, director, and producer in Hollywood. He has received several awards throughout his career, including two Academy Awards for Best Director and Best Picture for the film "Braveheart" in 1996.

[@joemildner5667]

Even better producer.

[@peterroberts7684]

Top Director too,The passion of Christ and Apocalypto rivals anything Ridley Scott has ever done,which is saying something..

[@helenpaul67]

Amazing how the casts aged beautifully esp those above 60. I cant help but think about johnny depp who is 7yrs younger than Mel G, buy looked like he is in his 70s. Handsome Mel aged beautifully.

[@CelebritiesHeritage]

Yes, it's impressive to see how some actors age gracefully and maintain their looks even in their 60s and beyond. Mel Gibson has aged well and still looks great. However, it's important to remember that everyone ages differently and at their own pace, so it's not fair to compare one person's aging process to another's. Johnny Depp may look older due to various factors such as lifestyle choices, genetics, and other health-related issues.

Greatest movie ever made and Mel Gibson is the greatest director ever.

[@mpb3481]

Greatest movie and director? Considering he practically re-wrote English history with this movie, why do you think that?

[@miamiman196]

@@mpb3481 I really like the message of his movies. Braveheart, The Patriot, Apocalypto, Passion of the Christ. Those are 4 of my top 10 favorite movies. Extremely well made. In Braveheart, yes I do understand that there is very little information about the life of William Wallace so the majority of the movie is not based on fact because there is very little to go by, but the message of the movie is hard to ignore: The importance of our right to individual freedom, the worthy fight to obtain liberty and the consequences of betraying your nation in exchange for money and titles. Most importantly..... in the age of weak men that we're currently living in..... the importance and value of being a REAL MAN that is willing to fight to protect his family and his nation.

[@mpb3481]

@@miamiman196 Good if that’s your take on the movie. Unfortunately I’m a history buff and when someone rewrites or revises history just to suit a narrative, he or she loses much credibility with me. It’s one thing to age up Isabella of France from a 12-year old princess to a mature woman so she can take a fuller part in the movie, but completely unbelievable and historically irresponsible to portray her as having an affair with Wallace and getting pregnant with his child. That’s implying that the present RF is descended from Wallace and not Edward I. So many characters, events and even the costuming were inaccurate that I couldn’t get past them to appreciate the movie. Gibson deliberately sacrificed historical accuracy just so his movie would be “cinematically compelling,” his words, not mine. To me that hardly makes a good director or a good movie, let alone the greatest. But that’s my personal opinion. If you liked the movie, good for you.

[@miamiman196]

@@mpb3481 I understand what you're saying. You're correct. If a movie is going to be based on a historical figure it should try to be as accurate as possible. I think that Mel Gibson was able to get away with it because there is so little information in the historical records about William Wallace.

[@mpb3481]

​@@miamiman196 Little information on William Wallace but not the era he lived in or the historical characters he interacted with - Edward I & II, Robert the Bruce and Isabella of France to name a few. The movie didn’t depict just one historical figure so to be inaccurate about all the others that figure is shown to interact with was an irresponsible revision of history. And there’s no excusing the incorrect portrayal of 12th-13th century England and Scotland when there’s so much information on that period in history. Gibson chose to be historically inaccurate because he thought the facts wouldn’t make for thrilling cinema. That turned me off the movie and him. Again, that’s just me.
