A hero of the French and Indian conflict, Benjamin Martin had renounced fighting forever to raise his family in peace. However, when British troops arrive at his South Carolina home and endanger his family, he takes up arms alongside his idealistic patriot son, Gabriel.
If you want an honest and unbiased film on the American Revolutionary War you should probably look elsewhere, but viewed as a fantasy, I find this a memorable, gripping war film with an excellent cast (Isaacs, Wilkinson, Auberjonis, Logue, Cooper, Baldwin, etc.) about a father reluctantly taking up arms when his children are threatened. It is in no way original, but it is well executed and to my mind, very entertaining and even emotional. ( )
There is one reason to watch this bloody spectacle and that is Jason Isaac's superb villain. Had he been allowed to be more than two-dimensioal and Gibson's hero less moralistic, this could have been a good movie. ( )

This "work" contains copies without enough information. The title might refer to the 1998 movie with Steven Seagal or the 2000 movie with Mel Gibson , so this "work" should not be combined with either of them. If you are an owner of one of these copies, please add information such as director name or ISBN that can help identify its rightful home. After editing your copy, it might still need further separation and recombination work. Feel free to ask in the Combiners! group if you have questions or need help. Thanks.

This film contains very graphic war violence and human torture. There are at least eleven uses of vulgarity. (
