    ★★★★½

    Fire movie about the Revolutionary War and an introduction to guerrilla warfare tactics, showing how outnumbered militias used unconventional methods to fight the British. The final battle was awesome, heath ledger and Mel Gibson bring it to life. And Mel Gibson melting down his son’s British toy soldiers to press bullets and kill redcoats? Such a cool little detail.

    It was good, I’ll give respect where it’s due excellent production and really great storytelling with an awesome cast. I like passion for the craft productions a lot (e.g. Whiplash), however this one felt like it fell just outside of my wheelhouse/genre therefore in my personal opinion I can’t go higher than a 3.5

    Edit: I’ll prob never rewatch this

    The boot camp scenes are legendary—Gunnery…
