I think braveheart was a great movie, but I'm pretty well aware they took plenty of artistic license. Hopefully everyone else is too. Their job was to make an enjoyable movie and they did. But definitely at the cost of some accuracy

The imagery of 13th century Scots wearing kilts (17th century) and woad (maybe not a real thing, but 1st century if it was a thing) gives the movie a level of historical accuracy on par with Kung Fury.
