Movie Review ~ Braveheart (1995)




Who doesn't love an epic love story?  Action?  Adventure?  A hero trying to defeat evil?  This movie has something for everyone.  It is an exciting story.  William Wallace's wife is killed by the British and Wallace turns his anger toward starting a revolt against the tyrant King Edward I and trying to free Scotland from his iron fist.  The cinematography, costumes and location are all amazing.
