The plot of PATRIOT follows the formula of the reluctant warrior who is forced to fight by circumstances--see SHENANDOAH and others. True to the formula, once he enters the war, he is unstoppable.

Heath Ledger is excellent as the son who must fight despite his father's warning, and Jason Isaacs is wonderfully mean as the brutal British officer.

I WOULD LIKE TO SAY THOUGH, THIS FILM IS WELL WORTH THE ... Read More

I like how he doesn't want to fight. He just wants to live in peace and raise his family and tend his crops.
Just like American patriots to this day he did not want war. No, we are a God fearing, peaceful people. But, if our freedom is under attack and our country needs us then we will accept the call to duty. Freedom is not free.
This is the true American spirit and even though Australian, Mel Gibson understands it very well. Perhaps it is his faith that ties him together ... Read More
