Rob Roy Reviews

---

Very good movie
While Braveheart offered us a picture of a Scotland fighting for its independence "Rob Roy" offers the auidence a story of a scotland in a transitional period. Like all movies based on historical events this one is not entirely accurate. This should not concern anyone as it is still great fun to watch. I think in a lot of ways it is a stronger movie then Braveheart because it doesn't try to be epic it just tries to tell a good story.

Overall-Unfortunately for this movie its lack of gigantic battle scenes will always make it the runner up for movies of Scottish history that came out in 1995.

Well it just stands head and shoulders up there above braveheart...
Don't get me wrong, i love Braveheart but this movie is close to my heart ) My name is Robert Duncan McGregor and this is my family history being told. Historically it makes out Rob better than you might expect, given that he could be a right so-and-so.
It is clear from watching that Rob Roy holds the hearts and minds of Scottish people everywhere in remembering the wrong-doings of the English in taking Scotland down as a nation but it also gives a view of the Scots nation as a group of wonderful poeple with huge amounts of strenegth to be giving to the UK even now.
It is a story of hope, that all good men with a vision can realise that vision and see justice done!
I just hope people watch it and realise that there are a couple of million of us McGregors out there that will always be as pasionate about our heritage and will stand up for what is right and true in all me. We've been the underdogs and now we get a chance to speak our minds, it is glorious.
'S RHIOGAL MO DREAM - Royal is my race!
