Outlaw King (2018)
7/10
A realistic more modern sequel to Braveheart
6 February 2019
Actually this movie is quite good. Don't give up during the slow part in the beginning. The story is quite clear, the Scottish accents aren't too incomprehensible, the filming is on location and quite beautiful at times and muddy and realistic at others. Chris Pine doesn't act to big hero like or put on too much of an accent. He is part of the bigger story instead of the movie being all about him. Supporting cast including Florence Pugh as his wife and Aaron Taylor Johnson as his ally are effective.

It's not Braveheart. It's good in a different way - less Hollywood and more modern. Surprised it was just released on Netflix with the big battle scenes.
