Braveheart or Gladiator
I would choose Braveheart. I think Gladiator was good, but Braveheart was much better. It has more intense battle scenes and a great soundtrack. The movie is more emotional. The villain Longshanks was just awesome. Love the line, "Bring me Wallace. Alive if possible, dead... just good."

Wow, Actually a question that is worth contemplating about.
I'm going to think for a second...
---
Gladiator and Braveheart are movies of 2 different times made, and times that are covered in the story.
Gladiator is truly an excellent movie. I think it is Superior in cinematography compared to braveheart. IMO. but that doesn't necessarily make it the better movie. Braveheart showed me something I've never seen before. Remember in the beggining, when Mel gibson took a clean slice of that guys leg? It looked so real, I couldn't get over it. The both have very sad endings. And both have amazing action scenes. Braveheart showed things that weren't thought possible in the world of cinema.
Overall, I cannot decide. Both give out great messages.

Agreed.
I enjoyed both immensly.
Both are very similar. Very good action movies with good fighting but with little historical value.
I say watch both!

You know what these 2 films have in common?
They both have Tommy Flanagan.

These are two of my favorite films and overall, I'm gonna go with Gladiator, by a hair. They both excel in so many different ways that it's hard to pick the "better" movie, so I had to go with personal preference.

Quite frankly, I very much disliked Braveheart. I mean it wasn't horrible, but it's very overrated, IMHO.

It's been a while since I have seen Braveheart, and I only saw Gladiator once on TV. So I need to revisit them to make a good decision. Maybe when I get more money.

Braveheart, Gladiator is a poor ripoff of older movies and is entirely generic in nature and presentation. Incredibly overrated.

Braveheart.
Gladiator seemed to just drag its feet at times with all the scenes outside of the action and became this lazy, directionless film.

Gladiator was impressive; good story, acting, drama and action...
But Braveheart has al that at a level higher. First time I saw it it just blew me over, it remains my numero uno movie of all times. I got more into the whole concept and emotions, the ending really made me cry.

braveheart. a lot of good memorable scenes in braveheart. its hard watching a long movie from begining to end but braveheart manages that with ease. IMO, a good movie should be able to keep the viewer drawn into the story without having to maim, burn, killm, blow up, shoot, decapitate or f*ck somebody every 5 minutes.
in gladiator, the movie seemed like it went on too long without the fight scenes. the in betweens are dragging and some were boring. the most memorable scene for me was "on my signal, unleash hell" and the battle between phoenix and crowe.

This thread inspired me to rewatch Braveheart, and that led to making a sig.
