Are you referring to the movie being fiction or the actual man?
If you mean the screenplay, then I agree as far as history goes it was crap! (The battle of Stirling Bridge should have a bloody bridge!)
But if you are referring to the man, I must respectfully disagree.

Here is one of many links to information on him.

As far as my opinion regarding the best underdogs, I would have to go the Scots as well - and yes, I am biased.

How about 29 people enjoying a drink in the pub?All blown to bits,when do they get justice?

You would want to watch what you say shaggydog, Your a prime example of why most people in most countries dont like the english, and its a pity.

Dont make me dragg up inhumane crimes by your goverment.

No offence to Anya or Beardo or anyone else from UK in here, but I shouldnt think there would be.

Anya man could you perfect your quoting skills all your URL and HTML stuff is showing up as _#-$)(# {} and stuff
