    Storyline

    Edit

    Did you know

    Edit
    • Trivia
      Mel Gibson initially turned down the role of William Wallace, as he felt he was too old for the part. However, Paramount Pictures would only finance the film if Gibson played the lead role, so he agreed.
    • Goofs
      During the last battle, two soldiers just stop fighting and laugh at what is going on.
    • Quotes

      William Wallace: Every man dies, not every man really lives.

    • Crazy credits
      With the exception of the title of the movie, there are no opening credits.
    • Alternate versions
      When the film was originally released, the final voice over tells us that the Scots "won their freedom... forever." The "forever" was deleted for the re-release and other future editions. It can still be found, however, in the liner notes of the soundtrack album.

    Man vs King
    This has to be one of the best movies I have ever seen. I recently purchased it and have watched it at least five times since then, and each time i pick up on things I did not see the other times. The fight scenes are great, the plot is both interesting and thought provoking, there is romance and comedy. This is a movie that any person can appreciate at some level.

    True, the historical content may have been distorted, but even though, this movie is meant for entertainment. It is not a history lesson caught on video.

    The acting is absolutely superb, this movie is guaranteed to have you on the edge of your seat for the entire three hours.
