Review title: Junk.... Bad History and Bad Action...
Product review: Don't be a lemming!While oft considered a "classic" and "accurate" concerning medieval warfare and Scots history, it is neither! The writer himself said that he "...never lets history get in the way of a good story..."! If you can't make the REAL history of these times into a good story, then perhaps screen writing is NOT your true calling!The plot is perfectly adequate, as is the acting. The action has little to do with "realism" or true medieval warfare. The history? Just plain WRONG! Wallace was not a Scots/Pict warrior in woad, but a KNIGHT in ARMOUR. Robert the Bruce did NOT ride for Edward I and betray Wallace. Absolute RUBBISH.If you want a tear-jerker and schmaltz, buy this film. If you want a good action and history flick, AVOID THIS LIKE THE PLAGUE!
