Movie Reviews of Rob Roy
Movie Review: A CLASSIC!
Summary: 5 Stars
I love movies like this.
If you liked Braveheart, you will truly enjoy this engaging film, despite the historical and chronological differences. Liam Neeson plays Rob Roy, a simple Scotsman looking to make a living with his family in the Highlands of Scotland. During the course of events, the actions of some dishonorable people force Rob into action to save the livlihood of his family and his clan.
This, quite simply, is a very great film. I bought it, wathced it, then watched it again the next day. Worth having in ANY dvd collection.
Summary of Rob Roy
When a harsh winter threatens the majestic Scottish Highlands Rob Roy Macgregor is forced to borrow money from the less-than-noble Marquis of Montrose to provide for his clan. But when Montroses henchman conspires to take the wealth for himself Rob is thrust into the most challenging battle of his life.Starring: Liam Neeson Jessica Lange John Hurt and Tim RothDirector: Michael Caton-JonesProduced by Peter Broughan Richard Jackson; written by Alan Sharp; DVD released on 08/22/1997; running time of 139 minutes; Closed Captioned.

Copyright: 1995 United Artists MGM Format: DVD MOVIE Genre:?DRAMA Rating:?R UPC:?027616626097 Manufacturer No:?906260One of the most invigorating period adventures to hit the big screen in decades, this lavish, brilliantly directed film drew critical and audience raves when it was released in 1995. Inspired by historical fact and larger-than-life legend, the intelligently scripted story takes place in Scotland in 1713, when Highland farmer and clan leader Rob Roy MacGregor (Liam Neeson) is forced to borrow money from the duplicitous aristocrat Marquis of Montrose (John Hurt) to help his clan survive a harsh winter. When Montrose's vile henchman (Tim Roth) schemes to dishonor MacGregor and his wife (Jessica Lange) and take the money for himself, the rugged Highlander must take courageous action to preserve his integrity. What follows--along with some of the finest sword-fighting ever filmed--is a tale of courage and valor destined to become an enduring movie classic. Tim Roth received a well-deserved Oscar nomination (for Best Supporting Actor) for his indelible performance as the foppish but deadly villain Cunningham, and both Neeson and Lange bring an earthy, sensual quality to their passionate roles. Boasting a wealth of breathtaking scenery and high-intensity action, Rob Roy is further blessed by a splendid supporting cast (including Brian Cox and Eric Stoltz), and the lush soundtrack by Carter Burwell strikes a perfect balance of romanticism and vigorous dramatic energy. --Jeff Shannon
