Mel Gibson on the Joe Rogan Podcast

I've never watched Braveheart. Was it as realistic as Lethal Weapon and Mad Max?
-
At crucial times in the story line, less so. In fact, much less so.

More like, “very loosley based on a true story”. Same category as Scott’s Kingdom of Heaven the difference being that in Scott’s movie, the main protagonist was from the very outset, a fictitious character.
If you want a fiction based on a true story, I recommend The Battle of Britain or A Bridge too Far or if you want to see Mel Gibson in such a film, definitely watch Gallipoli.

Braveheart is the number 2 soundtrack of all time. Behind Gladiator but just in front of Bourne Supremacy and Insterstellar.

The Passion of The Christ was exceedingly well done.

Don’t you think the antisemitic references were a little unsubtle?
I’m reminded of the comedy piece by Steve Martin in the New Yorker when it came out. It was imagined studio notes on the script. Much of it was just general humor ‘the language says Armenian. I assume this is a typo and you meant American?’
But one line was great ‘Just a nitpick, but on page 93 there should be a space between ‘jew’ and ‘boy’.
