A guy makes the movies: “Braveheart”, “The Patriot” and “The Passion of Christ.”

don't forget "mad max," which seems to be a somewhat prescient film.

also, "apocalypto," "we were soldiers," "payback," or "ransom."

mel may have his flaws, but he makes damn good movies!

Before he made that movie about Jesus (where Jesus was the good guy), no one would have predicted his downfall.

Since “Passion of the Christ” he is treated like a leper, it started before the movie was even seen by anyone.

Mel Gibson must be the most evil movie director/actor to ever appear in post WWII Hollywood.

Maybe that’s because FReepers care more about what he does in real life than what he does in movies.
