Advantages: history gets a makeover Disadvantages: none
...Making history exciting has always been a difficult task, it is by its very definition a relic of the past and as such has often been presented as such. To take a subject which until now has been presented as a series of dates and names, battles and marriages and make it exciting, is no mean feat. Marketing the subject to the in-crowd is easy, like any product they are already your captive audience and will always meet you half way, presenting you subject to the uninitiated and particularly the inquiring young mind, is the challenge. Peter and Dan Snow presenters of BBC's latest attempt rise to the occasion and their vehicle, BattlefieldBritain, hits the target.

...Well as you can guess when seeing the patriot you think Mel Gibson - Braveheart. And yes it is a similar kind of film but i thought it was a good movie. Acting was good and it had a good storyline although its similar to many other storylines of similar films.
Like Braveheart a film full of Battles and Mel against the bad guy but his acting is up to his usual good standard.
If you like these kind of films or even Mel Gibson then it is definalty worth seeing. If your a bit squemish though then beware o the usual bloody battlefield fights in this kind of film.
But all round its a good film....
