Title: Terrible pseudo-historical nonsense
Product review: This is perhaps the worst film about the Revolutionary War ever made. I suppose historical accounts of British troops weren't scary enough for the producer, so he transformed them into anachronistic Nazis, burning townsfolk in their churches and summarily executing those suspected of disloyalty. The fictitious Benjamin Martin and his progeny are inflated with so much virtue, charisma and martial prowess that they overshadow the events surrounding them. The entire issue of post-revolutionary slavery and racism is whitewashed out of existence in a manner that would be silly if it wasn't insulting. Awful stuff, even if you intend to give the silver screen devil his due. Hopefully, true patriots can still THINK.
