“About the only historical accuracy in “The Patriot” is the costuming.”

Damn, that was a REALLY bad movie! Total Hollywood garbage and not even really entertaining. Just Mel Gibson running around and single-handled destroying the entire British army with a hatchet. My favorite part, though, were the scenes in the swamps around Charleston showing mountains! That whole area probably gets maybe 30 feet above sea level. Gotta hand it to ‘em though, showing mountains around the environs of the Swamp Fox. Who woulda thunk it?

What IS it will Mel Gibson movies???!!! I just sorta, kinda watched Apocalypso last night on TV and the bloodshed and brutality made it unwatchable. Hubby had it on and I kidded him that after watching the whole Game of Thrones first series, he had to have had enough gore to last a long while. NOT my thing.
