About this movie

Scotland 1306, Robert the Bruce (Angus Macfadyen: 'Braveheart') crowns himself King and takes the ambition of Scotland's freedom as his own.

His determination to do what is right, regardless of the cost, reinvigorates his passion to rise again. But it's not revenge he desires. It's freedom. Now.

Ratings and reviews

Absolute garbage and boring made up fairytale for girls and deluded nats just like braveheart about 86% historically innacuarate. Robert the Bruce was nothing but a shameful murderer and never a true king as he lured the real heir to the throne under a truce banner (no weapons allowed) to a church and proceed to slaughter the guy inside the church cutting his throat and then seizing the throne for himself. Scotlands shame just like the SNP a deluded fairytale! FREEEEEEEDUMB!

The only thing dumber than people complaining about entertainment not being historically accurate is the fact the expect entertainment to be historically accurate. Scotland have Burns Night which celebrates a poet who literally did the same thing. Made historically inaccurate entertainment.

One of the most boring I have ever watched.
