Description

In 1776 South Carolina, widower and legendary war hero Benjamin Martin (Mel Gibson) finds himself thrust into the midst of the American Revolutionary War as he helplessly watches his family torn apart by the savage forces of the British Redcoats. Unable to remain silent, he recruits a band of reluctant volunteers, including his idealistic patriot son, Gabriel (Heath Ledger), to take up arms against the British. Fighting to protect his family's freedom and his country's independence, Martin discovers the pain of betrayal, the redemption of revenge and the passion of love.

    If you watch these films for historical accuracy, you’ll be disappointed with this film, if your someone like me that watches films like this for how made they are, then you’ll have a great time.
  • Perfect!

    Why won’t Hollywood make more movies like this? This was a masterpiece! Where the )))))) is the soundtrack??? It’s not on iTunes or anywhere and it’s by John Williams. The EXTENDED version of this on iTunes is WORTH it.

    Amazing musical score, great battle sequences, great plot, even the gore is okay because you can ignore it with the other 90% of the movie!
  • Must Watch!

    No better film to watch on Independence Day. Fantastic film with great performances by Gibson and Ledger. Not to mention a tremendous score by the one and only John Williams. Just an all around great film that is historical, compelling plot with great actors across the board. God Bless America

    Lil random. Anyone else notice how in almost every movie Jason Issacs is in he’s a bad guy? 😂 He’s an amazing actor though!
