Best Movie ever
Truly.
shareSeriously, i really hope you don`t mean that. This is THE biggest piece of crap i have ever seen, it sucked 2 hours out of my life i desperatly want back. This movie isn`t worth the paper that the movie cover is made of. Sorry if i`m being a little harsh, but come on.. this reeks like the excrement of a week of a beans and broccoli only diet.
Why was it even dubbed ? that just stupid, every actor in this movie is fluid in english, so why dub it TO english ?
the time periods in the movie change almost at the same rate as Britney Spears`s chest size and the plot is just plain bad and hard to follow.
If you are gonna see every movie every movie that has ever been made, make sure to leave this one out, it sucks 2 hours out of your life that you would rather have spent on watching grass grow.
This is just my thoughts on the movie.

yep, this movie sucked. i watched it because: (a) i wanted to see an awesome Christopher Lambert flick and (b) i was hoping this movie would do Vercingetorix justice. wrong on both accounts.
and do yourself a favor. if you thought this movie was bad, do NOT see Lambert's Beowulf. yet another flaming piece of crap.

Hello Zergkhan, I have to say that I agree with JX and I to think that Braveheart sucked and I can say that I have a proper movie education. Vercingetorix sucked more than Braveheart though.
Have fun
i have never seen vercingetorix, but i do know of his exploits. However when reading these posts i saw "Braveheart sucked..." WTF mate? braveheart did not suck, it was delightful. It really pisses me off when people say that historical movies are boring, maybe because they are historical. History is full of drama violence and lust, not nonstop action. and to JX no way in hell did Braveheart suck more than this movie, so you antihistorian can go *beep* yourself.
shareGreetings to you Aaronlippke,
First thing, I am historian, not because I think I am good in history, but because I studied in history. So give the antihistorian title to someone else please.
Historical movies are good, the only thing is that you have to be careful about the veracity of the content. Sometimes people give too much credits to the facts presented in historical movies. But I still like very much historical movies.
About Braveheart, I hate this movie for so much reasons, and one is the aura that is surrounding it, making it untouchable, you can't criticize this movie without being ostracized.
What is it with that realy realy bad movie anyway. The editing is so bad (and I am not talking about the fabulous amount of goofs), the battle scenes are so unbelievable and about Gibson, He can be a good actor only if he is well directed, and since he is directing the movie, I believe he can't be well directed.
Another thing, Braveheart is in many way anachronistic, so when you say that people are anti-historian, well I do believe you should review your historical notions.
One last thing that I find hilarious, you are here to defend a movie that you didn't even see.
So who do you think should go *beep* himself, to use your own TLC words?
Have fun

Braveheart was good as a movie, but Wallace was played too soft. He was a viscious man. A good person to have on your side in a fight, but a terrible enemy. And I think his death was under represented. The movie made it seem relatively quick, but the English were not so merciful to Wallace.
''Proper'' movie education. :D
What crappy school did you go to?
You may not like Braveheart's story, but the music, cinematography, acting, action, etc, is all amazing.

It's kinda out of context now that an administrator erased the previous message. I was just citing the other guy's expression I guess. Beats me if I remember what it was all about though.
I wrote on that board 6 years ago. You can see the date written beside my login name on the board. I wouldn't say the same thing if I was writing on the same subject today. I wouldn't say Braveheart is boring, it's kind of entertaining, but it is definitely not a good movie.
Nevertheless, I could say I went to my own film school. You learn a lot by making your own films. Even independent 2-bucks-a-piece-movies help you learn to enjoy more styles of films, and in a different way. You analyse films differently when you start to see what is involve in the production process, from writing to projection. And Hollywood Gossips doesn't count as a part of the production process.
Make movies, good or bad, but make movies.
Take care
Do not look into the lens and ruin the shot or you will be shot
Yeah, I saw the date. I'm surprised you responded this quickly. :P
But, here you go again, stating opinions as facts: ''but it is definitely not a good movie''. IT IS, to lots of people, lots of critics, and the academy awards.

Which are all human beings stating their opinions ;)
Yeah I respond quickly :) Even if I am not here as often as I use to, I still like to come and see what people say on these boards. And when someone answers to one of my old interventions, it's like a travel back in time. Anyway, I love to discuss about movies. It's FUUUUUUUNNN!!!!
You were talking about the music in Braveheart which is quite good I agree. Can you state 5 great american movie scores ? (I love those Top five things like in High Fidelity)
Anyway, these are five I have in mind right now (not a top 5, but something like that):
Wyatt Earp
The Last Samurai
Batman (1989)
Last of the Mohicans
Machete (saw it Saturday and I was blown away by the cool music)
Take care.
Do not look into the lens and ruin the shot or you will be shot
Heh, alright.
Last of the Mohicans is a good one. Have yet to see Machete. Never heard about Wyatt Earp. :o
For the others, I pick Requiem for a Dream, The Green Mile, Pan's Labyrinth, and The Lion King (no joke, listen to this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HhXFCaU92mQ).
Edit: Forgot about Braveheart. Switching it with The Green Mile. :P

Try this for Wyatt Earp : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ew1SW_QE6qI
Don't expect much from the movie if you ever watch it. I said it before and I am saying it again, the movie is worth the shot mainly for the music and the shootouts. The rest is kinda cheesy (not as cheesy as Tombstone, but still pretty cheesy).
True, The Lion King was something of a bomb in the cinema industry when it came out. It was great visually, the story was cool, the score was very nice too.
For the Green Mile, I just listened to a little bit of the theme music and I have to admit that it is wonderful. Really Melodious compared to the epic kind like Wyatt Earp or Braveheart or Last of the Mohicans... You get the point.
Ok, now I just relistened at the theme of Pan's Labyrinth and I must say that you had some great hits in your choices.
Non-american Scores you must listen at least once in your life :
Nuovo Cinema Paradiso (Morricone)
Blue, White and Red (Preisner)
Amelie Poulain and Goodbye Lenin (Yann Tiersen)
All the Westerns by Morricone... of course.
D'you like Westerns ? I freakin' do !!!
Do not look into the lens and ruin the shot or you will be shot
Amelie and Cinema Paradiso are amazing.
To be honest, I don't really like westerns. But I'll try to check out some of Morricone's.
If they are anything like Cinema Paradiso, they shouldn't disappoint.
"Worship me or I'll torture you forever"

I 've got to say that this is the worst movie I've ever seen. I really enjoy B movies but this is an F movie.
