Movie Review

Braveheart is one of the most compelling, well-done movies of the century. Braveheart is realistic and mesmerizing, based on real history and real characters. The movie is supported by many unknowns, all who do a superb job, and Mel Gibson. Though well-known in Hollywood, Gibson delivers raw, extraordinary acting and directing skills, his best movie yet. Braveheart's cinematics and musical score flow with the film as if they were apart of real life. The battle scenes are breathtaking and bloody, the romance ensuing. Braveheart is an excellent movie and it deserved every one of the Academy Awards is received. Full movie review »

While doing research for the movie did you come across any names (last names) of men that fought along side Braveheart? I'm doing some genealogy research and would appreciate your help. Thank you. My email address is Kdogg_2@charter.net
