Little about this movie appealed to me. The characters sounded more like modern Americans rather than Rev War folks. Their politics reflected modern concerns of social equality and cooperative politics. Not that I don't want these thigns for ourselves, but being a US History major, I assure you people didn't think like this back then. The battle scenes struck me as the mythical guerilla minute man exposes, which indeed happened but not the way nor to the extent Mel envisions. I think it is a shame when directors have to make history what they would prefer it to have been, rather than display it for what it was. Mel Gibson clearly dislikes people who misread their history to support bigoted ideas, so then why does he continue to misread history to do justice to his own ideas? That question haunts me when I walk out of his movies, as it does most history lovers.
