content: I have been of the opinion that Ridley Scott is an opportunist with no originality. While Braveheart itself fabricates history, it is not without some enthusiastic immitators. Ridley Scott evidently took the Braveheart forumla to heart, and his attempt to clone it is the flick Gladiator.I realize it's a matter of personal taste, but the choice of Crowe as the leading character is a poor one. There's always something filthy and unseemly that comes through Crowe. I can't put my finger on it, but it's a persistent problem with Crowe as far as I am concerned.Now back to Scott. His latest venture, Kingdom of Heaven, again follows the Braveheart formula, and exploits the hatred towards Islam in the West. An opportunist he is.
