imitating yourself is a failure

Starring Mel Gibson. It can be felt everywhere in the "Braveheart" in the United States, but it is far less than the latter.

In 1776, the American Revolutionary War broke out. Mel Gibson, once a hero of the war against France and the Indians, hated the bloody war and took seven children into seclusion in the country. Unexpectedly, the British were aggressive, and the eldest son immediately went to the battlefield. The British army rushed into his home and killed the second son. Furious, Mel Gibson decides to take revenge. Even the 10-year-old sons took up long rifles. After a bloody storm, we finally ushered in victory.

The story is probably like this, in the middle of the standard. The same is true of the performance, there is nothing particularly wonderful about it. But the scenery in the film is extremely beautiful, which reminds me of "The Burning Years". British uniforms, especially cavalry ones, look good. The commander-in-chief of the British Army, Cornwallis, was an educated man. There are many other characters, but overall it's not very exciting.

    The strong personal heroism of the typical mainstream American movies is only for the heroes sacrificed in wartime and Benjamin's great paternal love~~~

    This film easily reminds me of "Braveheart". Although it is also fighting for freedom, it is far from the level of "Braveheart".

The Patriot quotes

  • Benjamin Martin: I have seven children. My wife is dead. Now, who's to care for them if I go to war?

    Col. Harry Burwell: Wars are not fought only by childless men.

  • Lord General Cornwallis: This is not the conduct of a gentleman!

    Benjamin Martin: If the conduct of your officers is the measure of a gentleman, then I'll take that as a compliment.
