Well, I'm not about to add to the diatribe that's been 'preached' about this film.
All I can add is that at NO time does it even pretend to be a 'historic' picture. Unlike 'Braveheart', 'Titanic' or 'The Patriot' all of which have very credible and serious historical amendments, purely for theatric effect (possible the worst of excuses).
Has everyone taken a sense of humor bypass?
All I can add is a paraphrase from the good Captain Macleane - 'It looked
fantastic and we have a bloody good laugh'.
- One last point. What astonishes me is that there are comments relating to the 'modern music' in a historic setting. I wonder if the same people made the same judgment about Moulin Rouge. I suggest not.
