Mel Gibson’s “Braveheart” may have sparked a legend, but its unofficial sequel “Robert the Bruce”—starring Angus Macfadyen, who co-wrote and produced it—struggles to match the original’s magic. Set after Wallace’s execution, this historical drama follows Robert the Bruce’s fight for Scottish freedom, aiming to honor real events while continuing the saga. Though legally unblocked and streaming free on Pluto, it’s met with lukewarm reviews, criticized for being self-important and overshadowed by Netflix’s bigger-budget “Outlaw King.” A bold follow-up that never quite lived up to the thunder of its predecessor.
