Brave WHO? Step aside Gibson, Captn. Kirk is here as the new king with a greasy mullet to scare off the English! Oh, you don't know this story? Nobody does, until now so thank you Netflix! So you have your basic Scottish outlaw group who is tired of the tyranny from the English king and his army. So they form a much smaller band of psychopaths and one by one try to take down the English! This "true" story takes place just after William Wallace has been killed. Trying to maintain peace throughout the boarder lands, Robert Bruce is titles "King of Scotts" where he is sent away to piddle around on an inadequate piece of land. Well the fiesty little band of Scotts decide to play dirty and take out each castle until the big battle with the newly appointed king. Of course he is a weasel and brings on a huge army for the final battle. The grand finale of a battle was outstanding! The Battle was certainly Big Screen worthy and the blood was really cool. Overall I really liked this movie and thought it was very well made with great acting. There was a bit of "Made for TV" feel to it at times but definitely worth the watch. Check it out on Netflix now!
FYI: 2 scenes were filmed in the town that Robert the Bruce lived.
