Braveheart is a classic
Gladiator is overrated schlock with a bad script, terrible pacing and a stupid ending. Only the music and Wakeen Feenix's performance redeem it
Both are abominable rapes of actual history and should be shunned for that. That said, Gladiator was the superior production, with not a cloth piece of "chainmail" to be seen.
Disingenuous and erroneous facts trafficked by revisionists that bill their movies as 'based on a true story' are culpable. Don't white knight fricking hacks.
Truly a great film, but it didn't have the same impact on future movies and TV that Braveheart and Gladiator had. I wish Master and Commander had inspired similar films.
>MUH HISTORY
frick off, nerds. It’s a two hour dramatization.
Also, if you weren’t completely fricking moronic, you would know from the first few minutes of Braveheart that the tale *isn’t authentic*! The narrative structure is like that of 300, with the exception that it doesn’t assume the audience isn’t made up of fricking idiots.
Braveheart
Braveheart hands down.
Couldn't even get through Gladiator.
Gladiator is a great movie (so is Braveheart). It's excellently written, acted etc.
How come you couldn't get through it?
It's GLADIATOR ya frick
I HAVE COME TO RECLAIM ROME FOR MY PEOPLE
Braveheart, because of the historical accuracy.
Did longshanks actuall throw a gay twink out a window?
Twink Tossing is truly the Sport of Kings
No. Piers Gaveston was assassinated by the barons during Edward IIs reign.

Here's a better question. Who would win - William Wallace or Maximus?
William Wallace killed fifty men -- fifty, as if it was one.
Well Wallace can shoot fireballs from his eyes and lightning bolts from his arse so probably him.

Yes, I too think that movies should only be 100% historically accurate. Anything less and the terrorists win.
that's right, also don't post selfies outside of LULZ
Cute take, but you're not the one grading research papers with these lies being paraded as source.
blame the students not the movies

'based on a true story' is a loose phrase. Also, where did Gladiator say "based on a true story"?
lol
Did you just post some random text exchange from Redd*tors to support your argument? From years ago? That’s a yikesaroonie.
Guess what? The great stories from classical Greece and Rome weren't historically accurate either.
even history isn’t historically accurate. you’re basically reading the New York times of the year 1000AD and saying “so true”
Gladiator is a much better film.
picrel is better than both
