  • Editorial Review:
    A stupendous historical saga, Braveheart won five Oscars, including Best Picture and Best Director for star Mel Gibson. He plays William Wallace, a 13th-century Scottish commoner who unites the various clans against a cruel English King, Edward the Longshanks (Patrick McGoohan). The scenes of hand-to-hand combat are brutally violent, but they never glorify the bloodshed. There is such enormous scope to this story that it works on a smaller, more personal scale as well, essaying love and loss, patriotism and passion. Extremely moving, it reveals Gibson as a multitalented performer and remarkable director with an eye for detail and an understanding of human emotion. (His first directorial effort was 1993's Man Without a Face.) The film is nearly three hours long and includes several plot tangents, yet is never dull. This movie resonates long after you have seen it, both for its visual beauty and for its powerful story. --Rochelle O'Gorman

    Braveheart [VHS] Reviews:
    One of the Best Epic movies of all time 5 Star Review
    2009-11-08 - I must say this is by far and large my favorite movie. Ive seen it more than 30 times in my life and it never goes dull. Bluray looks amazing!! I do remember an old interview with Mel & he said they had over 6 hrs of footage, I would like to see some of that. Everything on this movie from the acting to sets & sound all top notch. Must see!!!

    What an epic movie... 5 Star Review
    2009-11-07 - This is my favorite movie of all time. From the acting to the cinematography to the outstanding score, this is just a perfect film. I couldn't wait for it to be released on Blu-ray, and it completely lived up to the promise. Everything looks spectacular and the Blu-ray really enhanced my passion for watching the movie, something I didn't think was possible. If you own a Blu-ray and have Braveheart on DVD, you have to upgrade. So worth it.

    Must Watch 5 Star Review
    2009-11-06 - This is clearly a must have for anyone who likes movies. Braveheart certainly was one of the first movies I've seen with such a wide scale battle format that is done well.

    Best Movie of all time! 5 Star Review
    2009-11-05 - Simply...I give you the best movie of all time... (War, romance, epic, drama, patriotism, etc.)

    An amazing film gets a beautiful HD transfer. 4 Star Review
    2009-10-16 - Braveheart is an inspiring film. One with great direction, breathtaking cinematography and a very gripping(albeit inaccurate) story. Since the onset of High Definintion and Blu-Ray, I have been salivating at the prospect of this film being released in HD and it's finnally here.

    Braveheart tells the story of William Wallace, the scottish freedom fighter that inspired a nation to face England head on, is a virtual clinic in epic filmaking. Arguably Mel Gibson's best film, (both as a director and actor) the succeeds at so many levels, that it is easy to forgive the historical inaccuracies that so many critics have pointed at the film. Not only beacuse the result is such a powerful film, but since the most of what we know of William Wallace is based on legend, word and song. Gibson and screenwriter Randall Wallace take broad creative liscense in telling this story, but the result is a film that makes you want to go out and fight for whatever cause you feel is worth fighting for.

    But many words have already been written praising this film as is. Lets go into the HD transfer. This Blu-Ray features impressive picture and sound quality. Braveheart was realeased in 1995, which is fairly recent compared with other HD transfers so one would expect at least the possibility of a near-flawless transfer and for the most part it delivers. The colors are rich and detail is clear throughout. The stunning vistas that help the film give it so much of it's character and personality look breathtaking in HD. The greens especially, which is so prominent in the hills of Scotland and the fields where the battles take place in the film. Textures come through quite nicely with clothing and surfaces looking quite good.

    It is not without some minor flaws though. I was able to pick up several scratches and things of that sort throughout the film which I found strange considering that the film is not that old. Apparently the master from which the transfer was made was not in optimal condition or was not cleaned up properly. Which is another issue. It is again minor, but I feel the film could've looked cleaner. It is also a bit inconsistent with some scenes looking better than others. However, I don't want people to read this review and think that these issues are big enough to hinder the enjoyment one can get from watching this film in HD. This things are quite minor and you really notice them if you are combing over the film like I did for this review. I mention them because given the quality and importance of the film I was expecting a little bit more work from the studio when it came to the transfer but the operative word here is minor.

    Overall, this is a must-buy for fans of this film and film in general. Despite minor issues, this is the most breathtaking Bravheart has looked and sounded. Ever. Better I would say, than in theaters. So pop it in you BD player and cry: "FREEDOM!"
