i can remember my sister telling our mom that she had to see Braveheart as our mom grew up in Scotland and loved the country. She finally got to see it on tv and my sister could not wait to see her and ask her what she thought of the film. My mom looked at her and said: ''What a load of bunkum.''

Although nothing like the real battle that actually featured a bridge & a downhill charge by roughly 6000 Scottish Lowland spearmen (not wearing kilts & without any blue streaks painted into their faces!) that plowed into a smaller number of English knights this cinematic recreation is still spectacular & exhilarating, & one of the best & most realistic battle scenes ever filmed. Even after nearly 30 years it still holds up fantastically while never ceasing to amaze me. Kudos to Mel Gibson for an outstanding job at directing this movie while serving as the main star, not an easy task.

At least the enemy ran out of arrows.

They did many historical inaccuracies of the lack of a bridge, the kilts, and most importantly to me, it was a very short battle of hundreds, and it did not affect the overall war. The movie makes it sound like they won the battle, so they won the war when in fact, they won the battle, and then lost the next few battles to the point of losing the war.

Cool Fantasy battle. Would have been cool if it was real. Since the real battle was called "the battle of Sterling Bridge" because you know, it had a bridge that choked off the English's superior numbers to even out the battlefield. This movie in general is about as accurate to history as Conan the Barbarian was and really fits better as a swords and sorcery fantasy.

Not that modern warfare is any better, but can you imagine all these men hacking at each other with sharpened iron and pointed spears?

The one thing about this, that the movie rightly or wrongly doesn't depict is that, when all that carnage is happening, a lot of men just run. I mean can you say given the chance you wouldn't rather be anywhere else? A lot of men just run, and when you're down to only a handful of allies nearby a lot will surrender, I mean unless they were scared of being tortured after the battle which the scotts might have done but I'm no expert on it.

How can they send cavalry without infantry support

Ye must have had a few drams I had a stall not far from there

Such a misrepresentation of real history. The Scotts where every bit as professional an army as the English. They had knight in full suits of armour, fully equipped infantry and archers, just like their foes. They did not present themselves like Scottish peasants. No battle was ever fought without well established lines. No mad dashing at each other into a free for all open undisciplined battle. Still makes for a great movie.

I won't what ptsd was like for the men of then I mean cutting and stabbing men to death and have them come at you like that is beyond scary

There’s so much wrong with this film, but the portrayal of Stirling Bridge and Bannockburn is so wrong as to be almost criminal. The Scots were not a mob of woad covered brawlers, they had some of the best infantry in Europe and at both Stirling Bridge and Bannockburn, the excellence of the infantry and the exceptional strategic performance of Wallace and then Robert Bruce gave Scotland superb victories. Still though, when did Hollywood ever care about the truth ?
