Quality sweeping scenic views, amazing James Horner sound track, action, adventure, and a roaring rollercoaster of emotions that hits every vibe from its tales of love, tragedy of loss, moments of anger and vengeance, triumph, vindication, desperation, heart break.... its all there. Many complain about the violence and gore, but it sets the stakes and makes clear the cold dark and gritty nature of the world. Do yourself a favor and watch this masterpiece! Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 11/12/25 Full Review J D Braveheart isn’t just a movie — it’s a full-blown cinematic awakening wrapped in bagpipes, bravery, and blue war paint. James Horner’s soundtrack soars higher than the Scottish Highlands and, dare I say it, outshines even his Titanic score. Every frame is a painting — the cinematography alone could make you swear allegiance to freedom. I watched Braveheart eight times in theaters (yes, eight) and probably 300 more times on DVD — and that’s being conservative. Mel Gibson didn’t just act or direct; he delivered a masterclass in epic storytelling. The man gave us tears, chills, and goosebumps — all in one sword swing. And yet... how Chicken Run gets a 93% and Braveheart sits at 85% is one of the great injustices of Rotten Tomatoes history. Absolute cinematic robbery. As a kid, I read everything about William Wallace, met the author of Braveheart, read the book, and proudly had a 7-foot cardboard standee of the man himself guarding my bedroom. This film isn’t just legendary — it’s part of who I am. Mel is the greatest director who ever lived. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 11/10/25 Full Review James K Best movie of all time!

Its funny that 3+ hour movies like Schindlers List (1993) Braveheart (1995) an Titanic (1997) feel way more watchable an rewatchable then Oppenheimer (2023) Killers of the Flower Moon (2023) and the Brutalist (2024) where those movies to me feel very very unwatchable with no rewatch value.
